nyc nightlife march 2000 - 10 years ago this month

march 2 2000 beavher at don hill's incl guest matt dillon & top tunes you should be dancin, the israelites & it takes 2. ***1/2 of 5 stars
* the same night derrick carter began his monthly subliminal sessions residency at centrofly. Ive caught derrick several times in 2008-2010-he's my greatest dj inspiration ever.

march 4 2000 tiswas was at don hills every saturday night, this night feat. general kingpin from england playing ; and sarah cracknell 'lipslide'; giveaways.

march 9, 2000 beavher at don hill's included guests carmen kass, frankie rayder, rachel peters, shoshanna lonstein, tessa benson, christina greeven, eleanor lembo ylvisaker, anne dexter-jones, mick jones, and serena altschul. sam ronson's lil' red performed, superfuzz opened. remember when sam had singer-song-writer ambitions? I guess damon dash can dash anyone's hopes. it was 1 of my top social events of 2000.
* the same night bob sinclar was at subliminal at centrofly. in the last 5 years, sinclar has had 2 of the biggest club hits worldwide, with 'love generation' & 'world hold on.' I think david guetta took it even further.

march 10 2000 jeff mills & dave hollands were at twilo

march 15 2000 the toilet boys headlined lust for life at life on bleecker.

march 16, 2000 beavher with guests karen ferrari, vitty, jen stillwell, & sam buffa. top tunes: 'take a chance on me' 'monkey man' burning up, start me up, & 'jive talkin'

march 17 2000 dimitri from amsterdam was at twilo. the same night dj x dream & charles feelgood were at the roxy.

march 18, 2000 tiswas was headlined by Interpol & Fictura. here's fictura's set: over the moon. how she got that way. telephone high. money man. beggars & saints. love walks away. fiction affair. never tonite. nightlife. / encore: without words.
nick marc's best song was 'rubber ring.' **** of 5 stars. its pretty amazing to think that 10 years ago we got interpol, fictura And a great tiswas night at don hills !!! early Interpol def rules.

march 23, 2000 beavher with guests vincent gallo, diana balton & karen ferrari in attendance. top tunes from frank's jukebox: rock with you, i wonder if i take you home, 'the hustle' ***3/4 of 5 stars

march 24, 2000 I saw paul oakenfold at the roxy, dave ralph & mark lewis opening up. with all this talk of a 'new rave' movement in 2007,. I have to confess that the ravey good vibes & outer space atmosphere of the best 90s & 2000-ish rave events is going to be hard to match nowadays. oakenfold at the roxy thanksgiving 1999 remains the single greatest set ive ever heard from him [and Ive heard many] but this march 2000 roxy perfecto rave was also extraordinary, his set was akin to his famous CDs 'cream residence,' 'travelling' and even 'GU 02 NY" but harder, more clubby & simply more intense. it was 1 of my best club nights of 2000 and still ranks as one of the best dj sets Ive heard this century ****3/4 of 5 stars . positive vibes in the house.
* the same night 'the stafford lads' [the salford lads, smiths tribute act] played don hills. and paul van dyk was at twilo!!

march 28 2000 the butterflies of love were at brownies on ave A.

march 31 2000 sasha & john digweed were at twilo. and john acquaviva was at exit on west 56th st. Its notable that 10 years later, many of the key venues of 2000 are closed. twilo, brownies, life. and roxy is rarely open.

april 1, 2000 anne summers from DC was at tiswas with nimbus opening up. anne summers was a very under-rated alternative pop band that deserved much more success than they achieved. another great find at tiswas from nick marc, Im pleased to own 2 of their CDs, check them out.

my business meetings in march 2000 incl PAPER Magazine. we all start somewhere [?]

my horoscope lucky colours for march 2000 incl silver, purple, white, yellow & green.
