nyc nightlife nov 1999 10 years ago
nov 4 1999 beavher at don hills with guests evan dando, parker posey, carmen kass, courtney taylor from dandy warhols, donno & nigel from nancy boy, & anthony langdon. top tunes from frank incl more than a woman, do the hustle, set if off, into the groove, spirit in the sky, you sexy thing & like a virgin. ****+ of 5 stars.
nov 5 1999 carl cox played an ultimate base night at twilo. Ive heard a lot of djs in my 30 years clubbing, but carl cox is definitely among the top 3 of all time, and never moreso than at his late 90s twilo super sets, 6-8 hours of pummeling techno & groovy house UN-BEAT-A-BLE !!!! his nov. 2009 cielo housey set was good, but didnt really explode into the techno or disco mania i hoped for.
nov 6 1999 tiswas was at don hills every saturday night, 11/6 was the 4th anniversary with fictura, damned personals & the inflateable men. FICTURA's set: over the moon. always. love walks away. perfume. just like you. starlet. telephone high. money man. / havana. nick's choons incl suede electricity, jb brand new bag, i cant explain, bigmouth, & all day & all of the night . nick bring back michael lamorte & damn personals in 2010 !!!!
** of 5 stars
nov 11 1999 pet shop boys were at hammerstein ballroom. attendees incl justine d, ron m & nancianne from staten. I love the psb but i HATED this show !!! the music was flat & canned & the absurd attempt at post-modern theatrical stagecraft lent the night a deadly, ridiculous [in the worst way] boredom & self-inflicted horridness.
here are some of the great songs the psb butchered that night: west end girls. being boring. se a vida e. its only the wind. what have i done to deserve this? can you forgive her? always on my mind. its a sin. i dont know what you want but were not gonna give it 2 ya tonight. its alright. nyc boy. go west. ** of 5 stars I am as big a PSB song fan as you will meet im obsessed but they were SHIIT in concert!! i have never seen them since, but i still love their music.
* next up to bar 13 for michael T & alex english's Broadcast party. only decent tunes were buffalo stance. i want candy & safety dance. left in less than 30 mins. * of 5 stars.
* finally beavher saved the night as so many times in the 90s: guests incl natane adcock, tessa benson, carmen kass, chloe sevigny, nick marc, dennis from realistics, big bob at the bar & catherine from Oz the waitress. heres frankie's splendid setlist: london calling. take a chance on me. rock this town. rebel, rebel. who can it be now. i melt with you. papa dont preach. dancing with myself. dont you want me. boys dont cry. goody 2 shoes. 99 balloons. ice ice baby [danced this one with ford model natane], this charming man, hungry like the wolf, rock the casbah. BLT, just like heaven, true faith, borderline, cities in dust, dont stop til u get enuf, jessies girl, pass the dutchie, take on me, it takes two, sweet child of mine & sweet home alabama. **** of 5 stars.
beavher in the 90s = instant sunshine!! 10 years gone ....
nov 18 1999 another 3 party night. started out at idlewild on east houston for magic touch, a short-lived, lame pseudo 60s soul party. jenna joost from LI & john mooney attended. stayed about 20 minutes. *1/2 of 5 stars.
* next up to culture club giving justine d's trans am 1 more try. attendees incl carina from tiswas & ron m. stayed about 15 mins, drink tix in hand & hearing love is a battlefield, I ran & rio. *1/4 of 5 stars
* finally over to don hills where beavher saved the night . again! guests incl tessa benson & carmen kass. top tunes from frankie's jukebox: dyer maker. only the good die young. brass monkey. wanna be startin something. jeffersons theme movin on up [!!!]. smells like teen spirit. EMF unbelieveable. heart of glass. ***1/2 of 5 stars. I was drinking johnnie walker & coke & wow did that hurt when i woke up friday mid-afternoon !!!
nov 20 1999 tiswas at dons with Altra headlining, support from lavendar disaster. best tunes: suede electricity, rebel rebel, daytripper, charlies weirdo & supersonic. . **3/4 of 5 stars
nov 24 1999 a DEVO tribute night at the Heroes party at Mother on west 14th street. guests incl alex english, nancianne, jenny from SI & nanni met her future husband from england, james pierce this night!!!!! The DEVO cover band played girl you want & come back jonee. the dj played burning up & new order lonesome tonight
*** of 5 stars the meat packing district is VERRY different now with aer cielo, G spa, 1oak, kiss and fly, etc etc etc.
nov 25 thanksgiving trancegiving at the roxy. a perfecto night with paul oakenfold & dave ralph & hybrid with a live PA. 1999 was paul oakenfold's magic year, as his BBC essential mixes attest. top tune this night was utah saints 'this is not a love song.' Ive been clubbing for 30+ years but this trancegiving debut night and set by oakey at the roxy was among the greatest nights of music Ive ever heard since my first concert in 1971. the music, the vibe, the rave event at the roxy, with oakey at the absolute peak of his skills..... *****+ of 5 stars one of the greatest club nights of my life !!!!!!
nov 27 1999 tiswas at dons with nicks choons the drowners, the last time, what difference does it make, shes in fashion, and shes so high. ***1/2 of 5 stars.
* the same night evan dando & giant sand's howie gelb were at brownies.
nov 29 1999 scotland's Idlewild was at mercury lounge. touring their first LP a very under-rated power pop band, as the years have progressed idlewild got softer & less interesting - an under-rated UK band, but Idlewild were never as good as in 1999.

5 years ago in nyc nightlife: sept 2004
sept 2, 2004 orange park was at sin e. tony humphries was holding down his thursday residence at discoteque on 19th st. orange park was 1 of ny's best bands 5 years ago but disbhanded after 2 indie lps. hopefully tony will play nyc more often, he's one of the most important names in us house music since the 80s.
9/3/04 suicide headlined rothko with a rare 21st century nyc appearance. suicide is arguably the most important us electro punk band ever, and still criminally under-appreciated. I was lucky enough to see suicide open up for the ramones at the palladium jan. 7, 1978. Im sure a few of you wish you could have been there.
sept 4, 2004 sander kleinenberg & steve porter played an excellent hard house/progressive house night at crobar, both djs on top form. hi-lites from sandy: blur song 2 [hard house mix] ; doors' riders on the storm [dance mix] . among 3 best sander sets Ive been at. ****1/4 of 5 stars. my review the day after;
'' This was a feel-good night for me.
Got there midnight. Comped.
Didnt like the hot 97/ktu pop-hop in the reed room.
straight to the main room. whoa it was packed! prob as many people as any crobar nyc ive been to. For a summer saturday of long weeknd crowd it was a GOOD crobar crowd! face it crobar is a more 'grown up' club than most in nyc. and i dont mean in a snooty 'fashionista-apprentice-bottles' way- I mean there are people older than 20! most of them!! and its a dressier crowd! thats more POLITE than many clubs! [hello discotq & spirit!!]. that actually came out to have FUN not beefs. that can still drink up , disco down and NOT be extra-mangled AND still look good! there are some foxy women at crobar & generally everyone dresses nice. even the mooks had their style-game on [stencil sleeveless tees? cool for YOU!!] and i repeat there were sm babes! steve porter up. LOVE the crobar dj on stage set up! [the old 'skybox' perch was distant & cold].
listen i LIKE steve porter!! in fact after LES Id say hes the best '2nd tier' NYC dj. [meaning about-to-break- but not of DT/jnr-morales-morillo-fame yet].
OK steves set- half instrumental club bangers. sm dirty basslines. sm proggy cool neo-disco. a few sweet-vocal-sander-style funky tracks. -
also some kinda aimless drifty wanna-be progg snoozers that didnt do much but fill time. SO as an OPENING DJ I think Steve did well- in fact he was banging it out from 1-2 as sander loomed.
in fact that was a pretty jumping opening set and sander dug it [in fact 1-2 times during sanders set, porter took over for 1-2 songs while sander refilled that vodka-cranberry rider on stage]
2 am sanders on. the most cheerful ive ever seen him, well at least since arc anyway. the most connecting with crowd ive seen him.
I LOVED SANDERS SET!
2-3 am- progressive dirty bass bangers with an occasional sweet-pop-hyper-female vocal- listen sander can MIX!!!! he can blend or he can BANG!! the next tune in but hes in control of his records & I LOVE the way he programs! TALENT!! arc-fans note- sander's 2-3 set was VERY-Howells-like- dirty bass & sm funky yet poppy hooks.
3-4 am- this was the core of sanders set. ok the sound was a little 'progressive trance.' in fact he was pumping like 5-10 'trance' tracks- Which I LIKE from sander! melodic- dramatic- ethereal- and still the occasional hard bottom/ tuff beat-- by 120 mins + into sanders set I was having a ball!! met a cool couple from St Pete Fla. dancing with the fellow-sander-porter maniacs at the railing- chilling on the speaker- saw a few arc-heads - I was into sanders progg melodic trance! NOT CHEESE! - QUALITY!!!
the crowd was with him all the way! fist-pumping! drumrolls & crescendoes!
by 4 am i was saying I am loving this set as much as my fave arc sander set- do u remeber april 2003 at arc?? when sander seemed to reach a new level in nyc with the flow and cinematic buildup of the dirty bass & emotive trance climaxes?? sander did it again last night! I was loving it & the crowd was still in the game.
4-5 am. Sander switched styles. he went to a harder techy-house cum-tribal sound...the man can mix BUT tribal bottoms are NOT sanders forte! he needs some of those lawler-type piledriving basslines in there! NOT a pots/pans tribal! sander lost the flow i felt & was just banging for its own sake. the crowd thinned- i was up front & the archeads were still present but i was one of the few STILL juming up & down! still a cute crowd, still a classy club night but sander lost it towards 5 am. porter took over a bit. more of his warm up tracks...the pace slackened. sander came back for a few more progg bangers but the tribal/tech section from 4-5 had cut a hole in the crowd.
i left sweaty semi-mangled but still glowing. some great people in the crobar staff. many great clubbers on this holiday weekend jam. some absolutely awesome tunes from 1 am -4-ish.
I will be back next time sander plays crobar. i love his funky-pop-disco vocals & the epic progg trance climaxes. but his tribal-tech style isnt sanders strength- he's a melodicist & a disco demon at heart- and overall between music & crowd experience
I rate last night ****1/4 on a 5* scale.''
sept 5, 2004 frankie knuckles was at sbny, another absolutely legendary us house dj hall of famer, who plays nyc far too infrequently!! frankie come back!!
sept 6, 2004 stellastarr* headlined the notorious MFer party at the roxy. and VHI's 'bands reunited' show featured Haircut 100! one of my favourite 80s britpop combos, especially the stunning songwriting & solo work of nick heyward. I would LOVE haircut/nick to play more gigs/make an LP in the 21st century! c'mon lads!!!
sept 9, 2004 franz ferdinand played roseland. OK evil kat, you can have ALL my FF cds!!
sept 10, 2004 the death of fashion were at luna lounge. what happened to DOF??
sept 11, 2004 jesse malin was at bowery ballroom.
sept 12, 2004 the Like headlined knitting factory. why am I the only person in nyc who likes the Like? they need to play more venues rather than the muso staid Knitting! girls you can do it!! the like seem to have disappeared in the la sunshine ..
sept 16, 2004 the thrills played irving plaza. their debut LP was a surprisingly impressive update of the late 60s cali pop sound. their 2nd LP pretty much disappeared off the face of the earth. did anyone hear lp 3, not me .
sept 17, 2004 Danny tenaglia headlined the roxy with danny howells opening. both worldclass djs played techno sets with howells being particularly cold. shameful when these 2 artists can play some of the best house music on earth. v. disappointing. its ok in 2008-09 both dt and howells too have p[loayede several brilliant deep house sets - and very moderne too 11
* the same night Mr X hosted his friday weekly at luke & leroy.
sept 18, 2004 derrick carter wat at IKON [the short-lived club variously known as Exit, Black, Carbon, etc]. and dave ralph was at avalon. ralphie was one of the 90s most ingratiating djs, opening for oakey & touring his own happy trance sound. i hope ralphie comes back to nyc more in 2006!!! derrick's ny home base is sullivan, and its a must 11
sept 21, 2004 the prodigy returned with their first studio cd since 1997, 'always outnumbered never outgunned.' while 97's fat of the land was an earth shaking funky techno pop lp that went #1 in usa & rocked the world, the 2004 lp was nearly a dud with leaden beats & over-busy arrangements compatred to liam's brilliant 90s pop riffs & hooks. v. disappointing . anjd their most recent lp was more of the same ; big in euro festivals, no more in usa ciao 1
sept 23, 2004. beavher at don hill's frankie's pioneering 80s night. by autumn 2004 beavher had just about run its course after 10 mostly great years. the best beavher's were in the mid-late 90s & it was all downhill from there. on the 23rd guests incl. vito, becca, christy, angelo, and jeff from NJ. best trax were B52's roam, cure inbetween days & diana im coming out. there was no energy & i left at 1:45. gave ritchie birkenhead the trojan soulful reagge cd as i left. bartender big bob's stories about the kinks & the cramps were prob the highlights of the night. well besides diana ross. **1/4 of 5 stars, its definitely not 1996 anymore. 5 years later i dont think frank spins beav in nyc / well maybe in 2010 . we shall see.
* up to discoteque for tony humphries deep funky house. made it til 4:30 **1/2 of 5 stars. gabe told me at cielo carl cox this month that tony took the prize at webster sunday shoutin. i love tony 11
sept 24, 2004 junior vasquez was still at discoteque every friday, a residence that lasted for the summer and autumn of 2004, but was done by year's end. sadly so, it was a rare opportunity to hear the nyc house master himself in an intimate setting with experimental sets weekly. hopefully both junior & danny tenaglia will bring back their intimate weeklies in 2007, DT has promised as much.....jnr at cielo is really good, i went in early 2009 and i hope to make it again by 09/10.
sept 25, 2004 max graham was at ikon. I think maxie is about to break through to the top echelon of worldwide djs after 5 years bubbling under on every taste-makers playlist. in the last year MG has had hit remixes of yes, coldplay & justin, and max's next hit may be the one to put him on the charts. max's sullivan set was a winner in spring 09. hopefully he return soon / 1
* and orange park & the death of fashion were at arlene's grocery. come back soon boys!! Its everything!!
sept 28, 2004 guided by voices released their last [?] lp 'half smiles of the decomposed' its hard to keep track of their multifarious discog, jim brown is the only person I know who can keep track of their releases, but anyway buy isolation drills & bee thousand & youll see why GBV is one of the greatest US rock bands in alt-history. miss ya!! i really love gbv. if you dont have any of their lps u have a lot of catching up to do 11
sept 29, 2004 morrissey played wash dc on his quarry tour with my lifetime friend jj in the house. Ive been saying moz was coming back to play nyc in nov 2006 & it seems that I was right!! they dont call me the psychic spirit for nuthin!! and hi9s 2009 academy opf music tour was the single best show i attended in 2009 1111
sept 30, 2004 aerial love feed was at the delancey, now known as rockethouse & possibly nyc's very best future rock combo. how about some 2010 philadelphia and nyc dates for RH? daddy likes!
* my notes say that bloc party & ARE Weapons were at kinitting factory also but Im not sure. the fab faux were at bowery ballroom. and the NA club opned. in 1986, NA was Nell's, the best nyc club that fall. Nell's was good into the 90s, but NA and now 'the plumm' are not that good at all. theres even a new name for the plumm... youll never learn.
art shows in sept 2004 incl terry richardson at deitch soho. imo terry is a wildly over-rated fotog- really only his ad images are worthy of any attention at all....a piss-poor artist; his dad Bob Richardson is far more significant for his 60s and 70s fashion mag editorials and anyone who knows fashion photography will tell you that. Terry R sucks, buy clues. compare him to helmut newton. no comparison
my horoscope lucky colours for the month incl silver, red, & cream.

august 7, 1999 body & soul, the legendary disco/R&B/house sunday party from vinyl in tribeca hosted its annual summerstage saturday open-air afternoon disco jam. even in the bright scorching sunlight, the sisters & brothers got down to the musical stylings of francois K, joe claussel, and danny krivit. all 3 djs played superbly with their garage and disco classics, a mega-mix of dan hartman's relight my fire [re-edit/12" version of course!] was the top tune but the whole day was splendid & upful. *** of 5 stars.

Their 'electric juices' on warners is one of the 90s great lost LPs. set at merc: glad again. dead end day. true colors. neil young. summers gone. gave into it. are you living. set my sights. rock song. flashlight. flies. and encore: best song, my request, a cover of the beach boys girl dont tell me. *** of 5 stars.

nyc nightlife in sept 1999 10 years ago this month
nyc nightlife in sept 1999 10 years ago this month
sept 1, 1999 Lust for Life was a great weds. night party every week at life on bleecker. [thanks justine, nick, james, steve]. this night the lunachicks headlined feat. theo.
sept 2, 1999 started the night at alex english's broadcast party at bar 13. [a somewhat under-rated late 90s nyc party when thurs was THE night to go out]. guests incl kathleen #1 and jenna joost from satchem LI. top tunes everyday is like sunday , all day & all of the night & suede's trash. *3/4 of 5 stars
* then down to don hill's for beavher top tunes grease & lucky star. *** so soul kitchen is at the talkhouse in amagansett every monday + frank is 3000 miles away in LA. bad play.
sept 3, 1999 john acquaviva headlined at sound factory. SF is now called pacha and its 46th street location makes it a more comfortable address than the beleagured 'wild' west 20s in chelsea.
sept 4 and 5, 1999 godspeed you black emperor and la bradford played mercury lounge. now residing in the 'where are they now? file'.
sept 8, 1999 back at ON! at club life. guests incl. dj voodooru, ed, scott & anna from nj, justine d, art dealer william acquavella with steve wynn [!], jimmy destri from blondie, & alex english. dj nick marc's electrifying sounds of NOW! incl: mr big stuff, sympathy for the devil, iron man, fire, cherry bomb, school's out, taxman, saturday in the park [!], fools gold, how soon is now, shes so high, & charlies' weirdo. stayed til 3:15. ***1/2 of 5 stars . that's a pretty powerful cross-genre/generations mix of choonage & guess what? when making time is at pure, russ & gregg bring it all back home :)))
sept 9, 1999 karen finlay headlined lust for life at Life. after a couple of great years on bleecker st, life was closed due to noise & traffic complaints by the greenwich village neighbourhood board. its the city's crackdown on nightlife in other neighborhoods that led to the concentration of clubs in the west 20s in chelsea, especially west 27th st. of course moving all the new licences to west 20s eventually resulted in the 'wild west' environment there incl. several notorious murders nearby in 2006. although Ive enjoyed crobar a lot since it opened like 2003, there is a very different atmosphere in that area lately, and the constant police presence & surveillance makes for an ominous nighttime experience. 3 years later the area is a ghosttown with crobar/mezmor/mansion closed as well as guesthouse, BED, and spirit. the only constant is change.
sept 16, 1999 the chemical brothers rocked hammerstein ballroom touring their excellent surrender LP. paul oakenfold opened up with an hour set of his more pop-flavoured dance tracks. outside hurricane floyd was battering us with heavy rain but inside it was big beats all night incl. hey boy hey girl, music:response, doesnt matter, under the influence, out of control, setting sun, leave home & closing with the private psychedelic reel. in their heyday the chems were a fierce live act to be reckoned with, one of the more energetic & theatrical dance acts. their star seems to have dimmed somewhat in the 21st century but I understand they still turn it up to 11 in the live arena. **** of 5 stars. its funny the chems have faded from the big picture & oakey sold out & lives in LA & vegas instead of england. once again, 10 years later in the dance scene, a seismic shift.
sept 18, 1999 i attended the opening of 'club 151' at 151 east 51st street. diana balton was my guest, and we generously partook of the open bar all night long, waitress service too! guests incl alex lind rose and host marc biron. now 151 is known as nikki beach, and is still holding it down with some big events incl recent MTV awards & fashion week parties. 3 years later does anyone even go to Nikki Beach in ny except jocks? Nikki Beach in SouthBeach still gets down on the sand.
sept 22, 1999 ON! at club life "boogie jams & one night stands: tighten up your wig" with guests george gilson, alex english, kathleen #1, justine d, stretch armstrong, & brian in the legends room. top tunes: sex machine, panic, shes not there, elephant stone, jesus hairdo, get off my cloud, chems' let forever be, jean genie , rock & roll hoochiecoo, & the rockafella skank. ***3/4 of 5 stars.
sept 24, 1999 squeezebox at don hills with miss guy & her toilet boys headlining. top tunes welcome to the jungle & i love rock & roll. **3/4 of 5 stars
sept 25, 1999 back at dons a second night for tiswas. guests incl george gilson, john from the mooneys, kathleen #1, chantalle claret, and tracy & phil from NJ. top choons from nick: what difference does it make, parklife, animal nitrate, i am the resurrection, paint it black, hand in glove, happy hour [love it!], help!, the universal, beautiful ones, my little red book, & 96 tears. *** of 5 stars
sept 30, 1999 beavher at don hills, bebe buell performed with wooden in support. guest incl anthony langdon & nick marc. olde faves from frank incl: safety dance, miss me blind, its the new style, just cant get enough, rock your baby, 52 girls, im so excited, teen spirit, pretty baby, hanging on the phone & walk like an egyptian. ***3/4 of 5 stars
oct 1, 1999 motorcycle boy headlined squeezebox.
oct 2, 1999 anne summers from wash dc played tiswas with sky rocket opening. of all the loads of bands that played tiswas in the last decade, Id have to say that anne summers was one of the best, a tuneful alt-pop act with great melodies & sweet singing. I picked up 2 of their cds this night & they are real gems of 90s usa po-mo pop-rock.
a favourite film in sept 1999 was albert brooks' the muse,' with sharon stone. I just picked up brooks' "looking for comedy in the muslim world" a somewhat under-appreciated 2006 comedy.
my horoscope lucky colors included green, blue, & yellow.
