Re: Avalon NYC

And the evolution continues...It will always be there, the venue may change, but fear not...it's people like us that are there for the music and the dj.

I know it hurts, but really, it's only Avalon. They've been OVER (pronounced "oh-vah") for a long, long, time!!

I now have to seriously ask how LA's doing.

I know Lyons et Al wanted to take the name and push it big time (ala MOS, etc.), but once NY & LA "took off" Boston got shit on pretty badly...but now with NY closing, if LA's in the shitter too then that plan is shot to dust.

Albeit, Boston is resurging again with Dave Ralph up there handling a lot now...

Re: Avalon NYC

prada wearing

This is not an inherently bad thing, so maybe we can try and put it like... "thinkin that a prada shirt negates the fact that they are still white trash" or something along those lines...

I really find it important to hate strongly, but hate strongly with the right reasons Okie dokie, my hairly little WOP? Ginuea's gotta holla right, don't he?

Re: Avalon NYC

prada wearing in that they belive the clothes they wear and the used BMW's they go into debt for are what determine your social standing. mike, you should come visit long island and see how truly bad it is. we invented the fadeup b lowout what the fuck hairstyle here.

imagine a world where the gotti boys are what kids think is the pinnacle of cool.

Re: Avalon NYC

I grew in in Princeton NJ, my HS was 90210 EAST, and besides better hair and lack of an accent (thank you for that whoever is responsible) it wasn't much better

Re: Avalon NYC

[quote="rubyraks"]I'll forever remember partying it up in that space when it was limelight in those "decadent" days of the late 80s and 90s. What a crazy ass party they had and so much fun!

amen, brother. the limelight in the 80's was an amazing place. add to that: danceteria! two great party places, where it was all about the music, & nothing else.

Re: Avalon NYC

My first place for so many things it was.... Like I say everytime that place is vacated, as long as it doesn't turn back into a church, I'm ok with the memories. And should Jeez! and the gang try to make that space a house-a-wership, I'll be glad to regularly desacrate it, its such a quick walk, how can I not?

I'll never forget being the last kid in the place on a monday mornin 7am in January 1998..... ALEX LAUERSTEIN played delirium Silence as the last track and the coat check guy brought my coat to the dancefloor for me.... and had I put it on when I went outside it couldn't have been anything but a burden to me enjoying my sweaty t-shirt in the 26F sunny morning.... it sure was glowey outside and temperature had been temporarily voted off the island for me....

I realized what was actually going on simply from looking at all the people that were looking at me.... lots and lots of them. Aw shucks just a lovely nite/mornin that stands out in my life from that place

Re: Avalon NYC

Some good stories. But, don't you think we all become jaded and always remember the, "good times", of yesteryear? I really doubt things have changed that much. I think us older, experienced clubbers have changed. I remember when I loved MTV. I barely watch, "The Real World", anymore. Same show, different me.

Well. different ways of experiencing things, more people who dont appreciate the music like we do to get in the way.... and I work at MTV now, and I never watch it, so there you go.... and I am here now, lol.
