same with concerts, remember how much excitement and anticipation we had waiting for the date to arrive, it was the only way to "see" the musicians actually move, no video only radio, im glad i was around in the late 70s to early 90s to participate in such a magical time, Thanks

I would give my right arm to grown up In NYC at that time. I’ve been obsessed with NYC since I was 8 years old in 1980.

You could write a whole book on your club days/NY scene. I grew up on Long Island in the 80’s/90’s and heard stories about the places you talked about. Great to hear about it from someone who was neck deep in it. Great work!

Great episode!!!.And so true, thingz will never be like what they were. I was on the west coast and Midwest in the 80s and got inside the Whisky, Roxy, Rainbow, Troubadour, Gazzarri's. And the Midwest had a nice scene too. BUT, it'll never be like Sunset Blvd after the sun went down. When the clubs were filled with now-iconic bands!!! And when the clubs were "Nuts to butts", the crowds were on the sidewalks. Bands flyering like Vampires..and when the sidewalks were packed, it went into the streets, and the LAPD did nothing. It was THE BEST, and fuck YESSSSSS we're so fortunate to have experienced it AND LIVED!!! 🤘🦇🕷🎶🎶 -J.s.

Could you do a video about tracii guns like funny moments or something I’d love to hear it 😂btw I really love your videos ❤

Haha! Another spot I’ve staggered out of a bunch of times. That’s a trip that you were the DJ in the coffee lounge at Tunnel. I’m sure our paths crossed at one time or another. Not that I remember much of those times😂🤦🏼‍♂️. Great times!!!

Very well said....the energy part too! Was looking at some Clubs in Vegas. That's when I learned about reserving tables, bottle service etc. A person is basically renting a table & service for the evening. How much fun can that be especially for the price. My son tells me often how much I had it made because the options we had are now gone. Great rock bars, concerts where a laminate was really a laminate & not some trinket you get because you bought the Super Duper Platinum Package. An average person actually had an opportunity to get good seats by standing in line most of the night prior to the ticket window opening. Now it's whoever has the most cash. I had an outdoor concert venue almost in my back yard. You could bring in all the beer, booze & drugs you wanted. None of this $15 bux a beer rip off now. Can still hear those concert announcements that we all heard on the radio. Yeah, that guy with the voice! Not sure if you're aware of what's happening on Broadway in Nashville. It's not Country anymore. It's 70's & 80's rock cover bands with some 90's pop/rock material. Not much metal but they do play "War Pigs".

So cool to hear about the club days in New York man I wish I could have experienced that.

Lфve this episode I am always fascinated by the “club kid” world style of NYC as in those daze I believe was referred-to “ The Vampire State “ an innuendo of the state motto. I briefly ran away to NYC in the 90’s to go explore the nightlife I love the area of Hells Kitchen ST’ Marks Place and Mars Bar great history lesson you give us, you’re bloody-brilliant music \ life history purveyor. Can not wait to buy a few copies of your book! Cheeяs mate!

🤘🏼
