In 2012 the legendary 100 Club in London celebrated it's 70th anniversary as the world's longest running popular music venue.  It was calculated at the time that around five million people had been to the club in that time.  This is the image of the dance floor in front of the stage where people have danced to every important genre of music over the many years.  A piece of genuine music and cultural history.
