it may be crazy to you but during that time it was normal to DANCE instead of just wall hug or try and look cool while bobbing your head in progression with whatever beats were coming out of the boxes.... |

| I remember leaving the Palladium going to the Tunnel and coming out after the sun had come up and most "normal people" were on their way to work. That video brings back many fond memories for me. And your right where did the time go? |

The video does make me nostalgic, and I only caught the end of Tunnel's run. I miss the culture of excess, expression, and extravagence when clubs were meccas for creativity instead of purely profit-making machines. This week's New York magazine actually has a decent article on Gatien and his Circa project in Toronto. http://www.newyorkmetro.com/nightlife/features/17066/
This description of Circa and the philosophy behind it makes me wish Gatien would actually come back...
| quote: | | As we tour Circa, Bass clutches a pile of design mock-ups and gestures wildly in the space, conjuring up the planned attractions: a seventies-themed Swedish sauna bar, a Fellini-esque surrealist ballroom, the “Washroom Bar,” a gay-bathhouse-themed disco that also houses the actual bathrooms. “It’s an homage to the bathroom bar at the Tunnel,” Bass says. In fact, the whole club has a self-referential feel, like a meta-club whose broad theme is the kitschy excess of Gatien’s past venues. Yet despite the retro feel, Gatien and his associates fully expect Circa will be among the most culturally significant venues on the planet. “We’re thinking world,” Bass says. “We’re thinking, What artists from Japan can we bring in? What artists from Paris?” He points to an incongruous mall escalator, leading up to the second floor, a remnant of the previous tenant, a video arcade. “Hilarious!” he declares. “At random points in the evening, we’ll project video onto the escalator to create a cool hologram effect. So maybe at one point you’ll see fish swimming up the railing! Or a fat kid sliding down!” |
Re: old NYC vs. new NYC:
| quote: | | New York fifteen or even ten years ago. People who had that edge or that artistic quirkiness—Peter represented those people. Now the only people you’ll see at big clubs are very rich Upper East Side kids with their bottle service who believe they’re VIP because they’re sitting next to Paris Hilton. When they had to pay $500 to sit on some cheap ottomans! That’s not what New York was. |
