Electric Dreams with Will Leahy at The Royal George Hotel was the perfect night of nostalgia for a generation brought up on MTV USA and ‘Top of the Pops’. Better known as the ‘Eighties Night at the George’, the clubnight ran for an impressive six years. 400,000 people came through the doors in the early ’00s to dance to Madonna, Bryan Adams and Nena’s ‘99 Red Balloons’ and the inevitable slow set,

2fm DJ Will Leahy and Colm O’Brien ran the Friday night phenomenon.

“It just caught on. It was like what Copperface Jack’s is today. It was the right place, right time, right age group,” Will remembers.
