Body: nyc nightlife july 1994 15 years ago this month

july 8 1994 i saw the lemonheads at roseland touring 'come on feel the lemonheads.' this is the lergendary night when courtney love came out at the encore and sang 2 hole songs playing guitar with evan dando on drums. kurt cobain had killed himself in april, this was courtney's first musical appearance since then & to say the crowd welcomed her with an intense outpouring of love & acceptance is a huge understatement. not to mention the subtext that couirtney's affair with evan dando led to her separation from kurt in early 1994, but that's all in the nirvana books you might want to read. hi-lites of lemonhead's set: shame about ray. ride with me. favourite t. down about it. my drug buddy. into your arms. great big no. big gay heart. confetti. rudderless. you cant take it with you. dawn cant decide. alisons starting to happen. its about time. style. frank mills. // courtney encores: Im miss world, doll parts. I saw a lot of lemonheads shows in mid-late 90s but this was obviously the best by far. ****1/2 of 5 stars

july 11 1994 the country club on 86th st was an unlikely yet happening preppy monday night party.

july 23 1994 juliana hatfield played central park summerstage with holland's bettie serveert opening. it was a rainy afternoon but by the time juliana came on the rain had abated & she was pretty popular at this point, some even called her the female pin up/object of affection in the usa alt-pop scene. I must confess I had a bit of a crush on her myself, and i chatted with her a bit backstage; however best julia chat i ever had was at mercury lounge i think when speed mcqueen was playing. her speaking voice is even cuter than her singing, its so breathy chirpy & alluring. hi-lites at summerstage incl my sister, no idols & the solo encore of 'nirvana,' once again her song about listening to kurt cobain, ["Ive got nirvana in my head/ Im so gald Im not dead/ here comes that song, I love it so much, makes me wanna fuuck shiit up"]. you may recall kurt's spectre hung heavily over the us rock scene in the spring & summer of 1994.

july 29, 30, 31, in east hampton, hanging with audrey flack & hannah marcus in georgica, bar hopping at wild rose cafe in bridgehampton, and shooting video on main beach as described in my Weather Report cable TV guide 7/31/94: " we are on Main Beach, East Hampton, reading the Sunday newspapers & discussing them. I'm wearing the Smiths "Shoplifters" tee shirt with Elvis on it. We are also joined by Mimi, a beautiful blonde who was one of our house-guests for the weekend. Topics discussed include the recently-opened Mercury Lounge, the Bowery's revival in the Daily News, & Bill Clinton on the cover of the NY Times Magazine. After the beach we drive on Ocean Avenue and then Main Street East Hampton, with Steely Dan's first LP playing on the stereo, and pass by the UA/Regal cinema, where Forrest Gump & The Mask are 2 very popular summer 1994 films. "
