Nightclub reminisce and appreciate thread

Filter14 is closed. I was out of town and couldn't make it to the closing party.

Arc is closed. Rest in peace...

Centro-Fly is closed. I loved Centro-Fly! They had a killer sound system. It was the closest thing to Boa/Stereo here.

Twilo... I never went. Stuff of legends I hear

I have many dear Filter, Arc, and Centro memories. I am wondering what is new and happening in the scene. Any fun places or interesting commentary? Here's some of my thoughts:

Table50 - Neat little bar/club and they had some awesome breaks come through. I haven't heard about events there for a while though.

Cielo - I almost went only to be turned away at the door because of dress code Heard good things about the space though.

Roxy - I wish they would invest in having more bathrooms and a truly killer sound and light system. Looking forward to hearing about upcoming line-ups there.

Crobar - Probably the best big room club in NYC.

APT - Heard about this place but haven't gone yet.

SEHO - Have to come to the next event

Any place else worth checking out? Peace guys

I like Roxy but yeah, you are right about the bathroom situation... the lines for the girls bathroom is insane plus theres only like 6 urinals for us guys.

Isn't Arc being relocated?

2-27-04?

i was in the back drunk off my ass trying to find my brother the whole night, but it was fun nonetheless


Posted by PvDoBseSSioN on Jul-26-2004 06:06:

OMG u have no idea how amazing that nite was for me. tears of joy were comin down my face when he dropped some tracks. it was just mindblowing.


Posted by AndrewBlizz on Jul-26-2004 06:13:

RUBY FALLS!!!!! They play mostly hip-hop but drop some techno..been only open for 2 months...but it is probably the sickest club right now in manhattan


Posted by PvDoBseSSioN on Jul-26-2004 06:16:

LUNATARIUM!!!!!!!!!! club in brooklyn. its an abandoned warehouse but its sick. ive even seen midget flamethrowers!!! top that

DISCOTEQUE? SULLIVAN ROOM?


Posted by MaDDHatteR on Jul-26-2004 13:30:

I remember Twilo, damn that feels like ages. At least the Roxy still stands, but as I have been hearing, if Bloomberg's new nightlife policies go into effect, NYC nightlife might take a nose dive completely. One thing I definately dont want to do, as a TA, would be to sit on these forums and talk about how good the clubs USED to be.


Posted by avikonen on Jul-26-2004 14:49:

Yes. Totally agree! I want to hear about the new crop of cool places coming up. I have yet to go to Discoteque. I forgot about Sullivan Room!

jesus, that's such fkin BS what a waste of great venue


Posted by glittergirl on Jul-27-2004 02:04:

even though most people i know hated it, i really liked Tunnel. i always had a good time there.

twilo... nothing i can say that hasnt been said. a place full of memories.

limelight... was totally my favorite ny club, and i hate what they've done to the place. plus if they keep packing 10 bazillion people in there its not even worth going if you are planning on dancing.

space (Philly)... where 2 of the best years of me and skytrancegirl's life were spent! *sniff* i miss it

roxy... agree again about the girl's bathrooms.

space (miami) ... love the horn!

amnesia... a local club where me and my friends went since high school, and which they have now turned into a car dealership. so sad


Posted by glittergirl on Jul-27-2004 02:06:

oh yeah... and Zodiac in york!


Posted by avikonen on Jul-27-2004 02:28:

I'm waiting for a good event to go to at Discoteque Words cannot describe how disappointed I am with Spirit.... Maybe we can go hijack a swank club like Ruby Falls, NV, or Lotus and pack it for a night I heard that the Canal Room has a great stereo too from folks who went to see Sasha.

On a separate note, I was reading a bit of NYC club history and I was blown away by pictures of the old Palladium and stories of the soundsystem at Paradise Garage.

Palladium! http://www.hyperactivemedia.com/5am/clubs2.htm

My one wish for NYC nightlife is that some club gets a truly audiophile grade system and packs the place every weekend with a cool crowd and insane music


Posted by avikonen on Jul-27-2004 02:36:

PS1?

What is this? Someone post info on this event!

Centrofly is actually going to BED soon (chic Miami-based lounge...woo hoo)

Memorable venues:

Twilo (of course)
Leopard Lounge (former dj'ing spot)
Guernica
Filter 14

Now: My favorite seems to be Crobar...nice system...and some nice little corners to just relax in w/o losing sound quality.
