Shelley's Laserdome

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Shelley's Laserdome was a night club in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire. It was at the heart of the house and rave scene of the late 80s and early 90s too, helping to launch the career of Sasha and featuring regular appearances from Carl Cox, until it was eventually shut down by Staffordshire Police.^[1]

"The clubs hey day, circa 1991, saw a number of DJ's at the beginnings of their career : both Dave Seaman and Sasha were resident, who later found fame and success on a global scale.

The most popular event was named "Delight" and the club gained many of the crowd from Manchester, who were formerly patrons of the Hacienda.

The friendly nightclub has since become legendary because of the diverse crowd (Shelley's was half way between Manchester and Birmingham), quickly making its mark on clubbing history with help from first-rate, pioneering DJ's of the emerging UK house music scene. "
