Fascinating Photos Show What a Bar Party Looked Like in the 1980s _ usstories

   

Cramming into clubs packed with big hair, booze and pounding music was a rite of passage in the 1980s. No sensible drinking cautions, no smoking bans, and generally less moderation of everything.

 
These fascinating photos were taken by Bruce Lorenz that show people (mostly his friends) at bar Hutley’s, 501 Main St, Islip, NY (Now Maxwell’s) in 1984.
