Hey Columbus!
I'm looking for a cool place to take my girlfriend on Friday for some fun dancing. Really, we can groove to anything and are just looking for a cool environment with *maybe* live music and dancing.
Are there any cool spots where this happens regularly?
Thank!

or has anyone been dancing at La Fogata? I hear they have salsa dancing upstairs.

I don't really know myself, ActionJackson, but while we're on the subject-Anyone know of any dance bars in Columbus that plays "oldies" music? As in 70's, 80's and 90's? An older crowd would be nice, too.
Skullys has dancing Thursday nights. They play 80s & 90s.
My new favorite is Ace of Cup's Heatwave party once a month. They play vinyl Motown oldies.

My band plays music for people to dance to. Well, for people to drink to but dancing goes well with that. We play everything from Sinatra to Rihanna and everything in-between. You can check out show listings at http://kingsofthedrink.com . Our next show is a big Festivus party at On The Rocks in Dublin on December 23rd. Should be a fun show.

@Anidem Red Door Tavern in Grandview has some "oldies" cover bands play, also Crowne Sports Lounge in Westerville (at least they did, the band we used to listen to there broke up). You may also like bands that play the Thirsty Ear. None of these have huge dance floors, but I've danced in all of them :) We used to really love the funk bands that played the Short North Tavern, but they stopped doing that a long time ago :(
Best thing is to find a band or 2 that you like, and find where they play. We've even gone out to Dublin at times to dance to our stuff.
