Royal and Central Grill Rooms around the top of Victoria St ( after 6 o’clock closing)
the Hi Diddle Griddle, Gourmet and El Matador.
Tommy had been in Sea Of Tranquility before forming a short-lived jazz group called The Adderley Walker Movement with pianist Mike Walker. They played at the El Matador nightclub in Auckland and released one single in 1970 called 'Hooray For The Salvation Army'/'Does Anybody Know What Time It Is?'.
... Who on here remembers the dances at the Orange? And there was that restaurant El Matador just up the hill and around the corner in Symonds St. ... http://www.realwomen.co.nz/
..the Orange Ballroom is still on Newton Road, Auckland, significantly at the opposite end of Newton Road to the Irish Society.
It is not a commercial Ballroom anymore but I think it can still be hired out for 'functions.' And
..the Orange Lodge Ballroom is on Newton Road, opposite St Benedicts Street and just a short walk from the PowerStation.
