the people with shirts off in the old days were all of the gay community....the later it got...the more shirts came off. this is what i am reminded of when i see shirts off in clubs...it was almost like a sign to others in the club to show where the gay boys were at. there were also days in factory where shirts didnt come off...93-94?..but the music was commercial (not int he sense of radio...but in the sense of remixes of radio songs) im not against or for it...i just think its stupid it just shows lack of creativity in world where creativity is supposed to strive.. at one point the dance scene was related to a style of dress.(something like the hip-hop style of today)..it involved an artistic style of expression through clothing without the use of labels...the ravers ran away with the idea and went too far..and the rest of the clubbing world turned to fashion, mandated by models and designers.. i miss the days of jeans sneaker and a t-shirt.... -z p.s. when did the clubnyc board turn into 13 yr old AOL chatroom?
and if anyone wants to take a dive for cheap drinks..and visit a perfect early warm up spot... come to bar 169 saturday the 27th for some fused up beats and live instruments.. -z
i have been 3 times.... dont go clubbing for 6 months...save loot.. and go to the parade...you wont regret it. -z p.s. this year was small...only half a million people.... '99 had 1.5 million.
that was new school twilo....old school twilo did not have a crowd taking up the stairway area...pushing through people in groups of 10...being rude to anyone who sat in "their" area...i did not appreciate their atitude in the club. -z
Lots of people looking to get drunk on a tuesday night...i was in awe. had a good time even though i was bit sickly... thanks for the invite guys...keep pushing the door open. -z
