With its eclectic crowd and offbeat motif, The Mad Planet, 533 E. Center St., is a unique Milwaukee hangout and a people watchers' wonderland -- and has been for close to two decades.
With good quality sound and strong, affordable drinks, it's a great place to catch a live show, but The Planet's real claim to funky fame is the Friday night '80s dance party, known as the infamous Retro Fridays.
DJs RAF and Alterboy never miss a beat week after week as the hordes gather for the best of The Cure, The Smiths, Madonna...you get the idea.
There are plenty of newer "hip" clubs that boast dance DJs, but somehow The Mad Planet remains the ultimate Friday night dance party in Milwaukee.
