Nope..You're wrong. Expo was located about a block away from where the world is now. Expo used to be an old movie theatre, while the world is located inside the wwe(f) restuarant.

I remember going there after my prom back in 97..I think the Expo building still stands, but its probably used for live theatre or something.

Yup, Expo became Kit Kat Club a few years ago.. Then after there was a knifing and the Jay-Z incident when he hit somebody with a bottle of Champagne, they closed the place.

EXPO was awesome I remember goin back there in 97, this was around the time, the Song by Club 69- Drama came out,,

IF U WANT DRAMA u came to the RIGHT PLACE.....

they should bring EXPO back

peace

The EXPO.....turned into the kit kat klub, and than it was closed down....for reasons im un sure of,

No club sits in its former space, and i do Believe it is empty, because i know of a few Buyers that are looking into it,

or were looking into it;)

I went there once and this is what i remember:

1. $20!?! to go to a club?!?

2. This place is HUGE

3. Why are there no words to any of the songs!!!

4. I dont know any of the songs!

5. These arent songs, it just a dam beat

6. Wait, was that a sample of something i think i know?

I left after 90 mins.

Ahhh the memories of being young and stupid :)

I went there for the first time in 94 and I remember they use to play house until about 3:30a am then it turned to hip hop..then everyone use to leave and go to afterhours.

BUT my usual spot in EXPO was in the front to the right of the stage...where they had that small little bar. I never missed a Fri in that place for 8 months.

I have some great memories there. *sigh*

Expo was great in 96, 97. They had Rob Corbett as the DJ on Saturday nights. He was amazing. He played amazing house and dance mixes. He's the best DJ I ever heard. Its a shame that these promoters dont call on him much today. Anyone who heard him in 96,97, always says how great he was. Here's a pic of him djing at Expo in 96. http://www.djcorbett.com/pictures/Corbett@Expo.gif

haha memories. live performance by la bouche. hahahahaha!!!!!!!

(but damn did i love that place)

i remember dragging my friend (who is now an investment banker) to expo for his first "proper" clubbing experience and he said that we were all like people in the movie time machine or time travellers or something like that - whenever there was a loud siren everyone had to hide in their house... well at expo whenever there was a siren everyone started cheering :)

damn. memories.
