NYC: Dance clubs for 35+ crowd- Help Please
 
Looking for dance club where my husband and I won't feel out of place. Rock music and top 40s from 1980s to now. Has anyone been to Webster Hall? Feedback please. Any other suggestions?<BR><BR>Thanks much.

Hi Kat,<BR><BR>Webster Hall attracts a pretty young crowd, but definitely go if you want, you'll be fine. Dress young and have a blast.

The perfect spot for you is:<BR><BR>Decade <BR>1117 1st Ave. <BR>(@ 61st St.)<BR>Upper East Side <BR>212-835-5979 <BR><BR>It's a very classy nightclub that caters to the, ahem, more mature crowd that still likes to shake a tail feather (as my mother says). I'd avoid Webster Hall. You'll love Decade.<BR>

Once every month there's a dance party at Roseland on 52nd near Broadway. It's called the Rhthym Review - info is available at www.classicsoul.com <BR><BR>It's a huge upbeat party that features funk, soul, dance and R&B music from the 60's through the 80's. Draws a broad spectrum of people but predominately folks from mid 30's to mid 50's (so I am told - I have not been). Have been told that it's a blast.

Thanks for responding.<BR><BR>Owen - I took your advice on Roger Smith Hotel. I'll definitely checkout website info on Roseland dance party.<BR><BR>Ted - Decade sounds like a definite possiblity - and thanks for being "delicate" regarding the mature crowd thing. At this point in my life, I'm not sure what age mature starts at.<BR><BR>Any other suggestions out there?

Kat - I think mature might be that point in life where one begins to accept life on life's terms and really starts having fun (I am so grateful to be getting there!).<BR><BR>I should mention that when I say huge re/the Roseland party I mean about 4,000 people - not a typo. If you don't mind big crowds I'm sure it's fun (I plan to go soon but not sure if I'll get up the nerve to dance).
