| LIC has a lot of square footage but it would be hard to get a following. When you think about Limelight, Twilo, Palladium, Tunnel, Roxy, and then look at how small Pacha's floor is, it's sad. The back left room at Limelight(usually hip hop room), had a bigger floor than Pacha's main. |

I agree with PP, Limelight has been over for more than a decade, 97ish, between Angel's murder and Giuliani's cousin's kid oding in a VIP room, the city did everything possible to destroy it. Yeah, it had phases of having crazy parties and being over, but it was always nostalgic. I went with my psycho sister the first time, she was in her twenties and I was fourteen. Even the first time, it felt like my old haunt. I had a few jobs there and with promoters- ropes(inside), door, lists, cashier, passed out flyers, you name it and I can say for sure, every night was fun.
A few months ago, we walked by and there was a sample sale. It was in the old exit, left door. It was really strange standing where we would stumble out in the morning. It is going to be really odd shopping in the Cha Cha lounge or the mirror room. |
Did you know Angel?
James St. James is my uncle. |

Yes, I knew Angel, he was a Disco 2000 fixture. We passed out flyers all over the village and on the piers, we thought he was missing. It was very sad and a hard time for everyone. I didn't like the way he was portrayed because he was just a nice trippy person.
James would wear the most insane things sometimes, all the club kid boys did. I wish I had pics of everything but I know some people that do. I thought we would see him at a show Richie did when Heatherette started but he didn't go. I haven't been in touch with any of them for a long time. I saw Astro Earle looking from another planet a while ago. How is he doing, btw? |

I read about Twilo and how Digweed and Cox were residencies, and about limelight. I can't believe how it was. It makes me sick that I missed the boat. I dunno if it'll ever be back :(
I can't believe Pacha is the only club left. |
Tiesto debut @ limelight was epic - scott bond ripped it down like no other
S&D residency with PVD Bi-Monthly @ Twilo hands down best clubbing year EVER in my life. Carl Cox and Seb Fontaine for $15...yes FIFteen bucks and even better NO LINE at 1am with a 3/4 full twilo dancefloor. Tunnel down the block as the nostalgia sets in. Be Yourself Sunday @ 8am god I miss VYNIL!
Or ever step into the Bat Cave on Wednesday's? LMAO by accident or on purpose, that's when NYC had a real scene, not my scene but a real scene...lol the word resonates in my mind...DISCOTEQUE! |
