Yep, that's it! That's the attitude I was talking about! Thanks! As I said, I like a lot of what Junior spins, but not all. If it's cheese, it's cheese no matter WHO spins it. Junior spins cheese, it's cheese. Denny spins cheese, it's cheese. It just happens I think Denny spins more cheese than Junior does. He's a Cheez Whiz, and that's my opinion. You are perfectly entitled to disagree, but you asked the question and I answered it. Don't get all faggoty because you don't like my answer. I agree with one thing you said though - it ain't worth my time either. Hope you have fun tonight wherever it takes ya. ichi

If his sets the past weeks have been harder and darker, then you're just getting a taste of what he's got planned for Space @ Ibiza. Damn, I'm jealous of those going to Spain... What the hell, I think this Friday I'll give the joint a visit ichi :rainbow:

No doubt D-Tour was great... DT got a li'l more freedom to go darker when he got Be Yourself... those were some good days! Mikey (the guy w/ the glowstix and glow strings and everything) is still around, usually doing Junior's party now. Junior's new party starts @ Exit on the 29th of this month. ichi

My acne, and the fact that I am 5'2" 240# with BO and patchy facial hair usually does it for me... ichi

Quite right about Tempts, though I've never been to World. A female friend used to live in Toms River, and Tempts was THE place she wanted to go. As for what's so cheesy? A bunch of brawny guys who *swear* they're straight checkin' each other out in the bathroom, man-jewelry and Camaros. Women who dress in as little as humanly possible while still fitting the definition of "clothed," and whining about being ogled and groped all night by the same brawny guys. Guys who get drunk as hell while on K or G (mixing!)... whose girfriends start grinding on me, and who then want to take me down for being there. Guys who are so light in their loafers they don't need the stairs giving me shit for being gay and being in the club. THAT's what I find cheesy. You could be boppin' to Bocelli, or groovin' to Gregorian chant, dancin to Dixie Chicks, or trippin' on Tenaglia. The music, and your knowledge or lack of, doesn't make you cheesy. You could be a supermodel there on your night off, or you could be tore up from the floor up. It's all about the attitude. The posing. Do I like Junior? As far as Junior is concerned, yes I like a lot of his music, but not ALL of it. He's a bitch, and I don't like elements of the crowd he picked up while at Twilo. I know that Denny DOES like him because we all know whose influence to blame for his abuse of the Relentless Horns and Can U Party. ichi

Why? Because I don't like his style, and I don't think his mixing is all that great. No, I don't think I can do better, but I know lots of people can. I find him, his music, his style, his mixing, and his crowd cheesy. That's why. Have a nice day, please drive through. ichi

Just had a momentary visual of DaVe @ Rawhide... ohmy. Think this ichi needs to go to bed now. nite, all! i_g

Frontrunner? I do believe so! At least we know where Denny Chee-Tos is going now... ichi

Maybe it's the same guy who, back at Twilo in February at the CC vs. DT night, was trying to get into VIP by telling the door that he was sent there by "Danny Tegliani." I'll never forget that one. ichi :rainbow:

Hey jsc, check it out, not only does nightclubcity.com work, but so does vipguestlist.com, robpromotions.com, naughtybooth.com, ezdreamer.com ... DaVe is pretty cool about these things. Confidence is a wonderful thing, and well earned.

Thank you, Aly, for your support. Limelight, love it or hate it, is in the same Flatiron and Chelsea neighborhoods as a number of our other favorite clubs, such as Centro-Fly, Cheetah, Ohm, Aria, Hush, Splash, G, Twirl, Heaven, The Roxy, Joy, Metronome, XL, True, and Lava Lounge; places from 12th to 28th, from 5th to the Hudson... Yes, even the newly-fabulous plywood pleaure palace Filter-14... and they are all targets. Centro, Ohm, Cheetah, and Aria were all mentioned by members of CB5 as blights on the neighborhood. One even commenting that Limelight is "the first" and certainly not to be the last that the neighborhood gets rid of, noting with a derisive sneer that Centro-Fly had just been nominated "Hottest Club in NYC, and therefore the biggest nuisance." Peter Gatien has nothing to do with any of those clubs, right? Or does he? Why does a club by a certain name assume the reputation of the management? What if Blair proposed to call the place Papayalight? Or Limedarkness? Or Smudgepot? Would it still be suh a hated place? I say the arguments about what Gatien did are damned silly and baseless as a basis for argument against John Blair. First they came for Twilo, then they came for Limelight and Tunnel. They got Tunnel, they might get Limelight. Next comes Centro? And then? Sound Factory? Exit? Vinyl's area is becoming more heavily residential, that's probably on the list... What does it take for us to stand up and speak our minds? To show that WE, the PUBLIC, should determine what is in the public interest, rather than a handful of uptight pensioners looking to make a quick million off the apartment they bought 30 years ago? See you at the meeting, or not. ichi.

Perhaps the most amusing way I have ever been asked was this past weekend @ The Tavern in Southampton. A fine gentleman, quite obviously well tuned up already, comes to my ear and shouts, "DO YOU HAVE ANY SNIFFIES??" Lovely. ichi.

jsc - even better than all of that, "It was like Arena." I think I just bit my tongue clean off... ichi

jsc - not even 6 months ago, before DT went to WMC, before DT got award after award, and the juice started flowing downtown... ask most if they were going to Danny... "No way, he sucks, what is that 'tribal' shit, he's too downtempo, Vinyl is a shithole, they don't sell booze, he gets on the mic and ruins the vibe, etc. etc. etc." I remember trying to get a group of CP headz together last November for a Vinyl meetup... nope, goin' to SF. Nothing worth seeing down on Laight. How long until the next big thing, ya think? ichi

frontrunners.

How does a building "only know how to be run crooked?" How do stone, glass, wood, and steel come to be so anthropomorphized that the people involved in the business operation are irrelevant? I am utterly confused at how you have arrived at such a conclusion. Please elaborate... In case you are confused, the only thing remaining the same are the name and the structure at the address. ichi

We all know who has been "riping" people off since 1993... Gatien and wife are being deported as quickly as INS and DOJ can make it happen. Mike has nothing to do with the club by court order. John Blair and Beto Sutter are ready to get up to their eyeballs in debt to make this happen; Ben Ashkenazy is no fan of his deadbeat current tenant, so I doubt he's ready to keep any relationships going with the current crew. The 4th of the new partners is Jay Janis; I don't know much about him, but I know he is unbaffiliated with anyone in the current Gatien lot and has worked with Blair before. So don't judge Blair and crew by Gatien, and don't judge them by Limelight. Judge them by the other parties and establishments Blair runs. And curb your bitterness on this one. You might be very surprised and end up a little less jaded. I'm giving them a chance, and I stand to gain nothing from this but a landmark to keep partying at. ichi :rainbow:

Just like Drama @ Limelight, that Sunday party puts afterhours squarely into Monday morning... I tend to work on Monday, which either puts a damper on my work week, or my night life. ichi

If LL can stay open, yes, Kurfew is supposed to be moving the party there. Help keep LL open!! ichi :rainbow:

Anthony, you are so right about that... grrrr!!! ichi

OK, it's on most of the boards already, but here goes anyway... Next Thursday we have our final Community Board 5 hearing on Limelight. The Community Board meeting, if you can join in, is at 227 West 27th Street, 8th Floor (It's called Building A and it's at 8th Avenue and 27th Street). It will be NEXT Thursday, September 13 starting a 6 and we expect to get out by 8 p.m. This is the community board that determines if they will stand firm with their NIMBY policy, or hear those of us who are responsible clubgoers and determine that we really AREN'T monstrous creatures of the dark. If you can make the meeting, please RSVP with Dirk McCall at (212)822-2286 ichi
