Got taken to this party by my friend Nicolas. I think Johnny Dynell was the DJ playing house upstairs while a more disco soundtrack featured downstairs. Saw some of the club kids and wasn’t very impressed, remember someone with big spots on their face who came off like a very half-arsed Leigh Bowery impersonator. In retrospect, I guess this may have been Michael Alig. The clip is from Funtone’s website. The performer doing the amazing contortions is Lady Hennessy Brown.

Best club I can remember visiting on that trip was Rock & Roll Fag Bar at The World, an amazing space on the Lower East Side. I recently found a Nelson Sullivan clip of the club and realized that it includes Nicolas, who is standing outside talking to Dean Johnson at the beginning.
