According to a feature on Glasgow in Gay News reported by Keith
Howes (Issue 115 March, 1977), under Discos:
Glasgow is disco mad. SMG had been organising discos in some of Glasgow's many
corporation halls and also in hotel suites for the past four years. The Duke
of Wellington and the Vintners also have occasional discos and recently the
Western Hotel has introduced strong competition with the first licensed Sunday
gay discos - the Shadows Sunday Disco Club which offers free membership and
opens from 7 o'clock until midnight. The Western also tries to encourage gays
to have their 21st birthday parties there on Friday and Saturday nights. Another
recent entry on the scene is The Sunday Club which is run by an ex-member of
SMG.
Unlike Edinburgh, Glasgow is very well off for disco accommodation but, in general,
the discos tend to be quite small-scale although, on April 5th, SMG is hiring
Tiffanay's ballroom in Glasgow, which accommodates 800-1000 people. Once the
full effect of the licensing laws comes into effect during the summer, SMG hopes
to get a licensed Sunday disco.
