We've overdone nerd and geek clearly, as they're becoming chic and/or passé.

Well spotted Dark! Interestingly enough, my sodden memory is loudly pointing out that The Sisters famously played a venue in Hull that might just have been called...Tiffany's.
They definitely played Tiffanys, Newcastle, I was there!!

IIRC there was a Tiffany's in Oldham (or was it Rochdale?) in the mid-80s too. Not that The Sisters would ever have played there though.

I think Tiffany's is pretty much a generic club name for what we used to call white high heel nights...

oldham had a "butterflies" in the mid-late 80s, which from what i remember used to be called something like "romeo and juliets" in the early 80s...

Was it Rochdale then? Or maybe I imagined the whole thing?

and Theatre Of Hate at the Glasgow Tiffany's

You are absolutely right!
I took my girlfriend on our first date to Tiffanys, red rose, drinking, etc. The next night I took her back the same place to see Killing Joke!

not that i'm taking the pith or anything - i wouldn't be on this site myself if i wasn't terminally anal.
clicky - this goes back much further than the 80s
