corbett Posted October 6 Report Share Posted October 6 I have a few pictures from Palladium on my website... I used to spin there with Hex Hector on Fridays.... If anyone on the board would like... but please dont go crazy on me... I have amassed a collection of video tapes from the clubs I used to spin at in like 93-97.... I have footage from the old Limelight, Tunnel, Palladium, USA, Expo.... most of it is on 8mm.... I was trying to put in on my site but it looks like shit when you try to watch it.... ANYWAY.... perhaps if people wanna meet up and give me blank video tapes... I might find some time to transfer the footage to your tapes..... quite a little history of club footage you'll have....Let me know,....------------------Rob Corbettwww.djcorbett.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ANSWER Posted October 6 Report Share Posted October 6 Wow, awesome pics guys. Brings back some good memories. Palladium was the first club that i ever went to. Actually stumbled upon it just roaming the streets of NYC. Imagine walking intot hat place and having your first club experince. Nothing will ever match that place. Used to hit that place on Fri and occasionally on Sat. Fridays used to be hip-hop. Met Biggie Smalls, Foxy Brown and Nas there one nite at the main bar.Sat was awesome party. Didn't did Arena party too much.Brings a tear whenever i happen to pass by 14th & 3rd ave.peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelwings Posted October 6 Report Share Posted October 6 GOD that place was great, on the dance floor with all the lights blazing.... I was there the last night it was open with an old girlfriend of mine, we were trippin on shrooms and having a great time. Was kinda sad it was the last night.I didn't realize how much I missed that place till this post.------------------Those who are envious stare. Those who are jealous frown. Those who are equal smile.

djjoeyd212 Posted October 6 Report Share Posted October 6 Palladium was phenominal...but, does anyone remember Club USA?? I grew up in that club...or at least learned the ways of the world.And you can't forget about the infamous "K-Hole" Slide!!!!!------------------Yesterday is history, tomorrow a mystery, today is a gift...that is why we call it the present.

Addaboy1 Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 Damn, what memories that brings back. Palladium was my second club after Limelight and truly my first "HOME" in a club. All good things do come to an end, but what a shame that was!!!It's funny, that shot of the building from the outside...it's probably the first time I ever really looked at it. Funny what you don't notice even when you go to a place a couple hundred times! lolAwesome shots!!! RIP Palladium & ARENA!addaboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
