Big Apple

SR-8, Boston Heights, Ohio

Huge underlit dance floor, much like 2001 Odyssey.

Entire back wall was also underlit like the floor, computerized lighting.

I think it now may be called the Boot-Scootin Saloon (C & W place).

Reader Comments on Big Apple

 

I WAS THE DRUMMER WHO PLAYED TO THE DISCO MUSIC AT THE BIG APPLE. STARTED THERE BEFORE IT OPENED AND REMAINED THE ENTIRE LENGTH IT WAS THERE IT WAS SOMETHING JUST THOUGHT I WOULD BE THERE UNTIL I PUT ANOTHER BAND TOGETHER BUT IT GOT BIG (REAL BIG) I PLAYED 8 TIMES A WEEK (TWICE ON SUNDAYS ONE FOR TEENS) AFTER THE BIG APPLE IT WAS THE AKRON AGORA AND THEN THE BOOT SCOOTIN SALON I WORKED FOR THE AKRON AGORA FOR ABOUT 1 YEAR. DURING THAT ERA THE APPLE WOULD SEND ME TO NY TO BILBOARDS DISCO CONVENTION WHERE I GOT TO PARTY WITH STARS LIKE ANDY GIBB, T-CONECTION, DONNA SUMMERS, GRACE JONES ETC.. ALL THE ONES OF THE DAY ----- YES I WILL ALWAYS HAVE A FOND LOVE FOR DISCO

Also the Big Apple's location was Northhampton Township and now that is Cuyahoga Falls having been annexed in 1990. It was never located in Boston Heights.

The Big Apple was fantastic. Northampton and route 8 were never the same. Grew up across the street and went to Woodridge right down the road. '76,'77 at the Apple, I was a barback, then bouncer. Plenty of crazy nights and wonderful folks that worked there. Too many messed up nights ending in fights, but the Northampton police were always good to us. The dance floor was awesome. The best rowdy spots were up behind the glass.. and the back bar area with the foosball tables. Worked plenty of those Sunday afternoons for the kids...the special pink punch mix in 5 gallon white plastic buckets.....mix and pour, mix and pour.
