Re: Musto names 10 Best Clubs Of All Time
Jackie 60 at #5. But which night out of the week's various parties?

Re: Musto names 10 Best Clubs Of All Time
I can't believe that I DJ'd at 9 out of the 10 clubs! (Not Studio 54)

Re: Musto names 10 Best Clubs Of All Time
You have me beat, daddy... I worked at only 7 out of the ten.

Re: Musto names 10 Best Clubs Of All Time
I DJ'd at one (Happy Valley) I think and I performed and cocktail waitressed (badly) at another one
Reply
Re: Musto names 10 Best Clubs Of All Time
I only made my living for a time off the plastercated people leaving six of those clubs. The easiest ploy was I would have a pocket full of photocopied twenty dollar bills and ask the plastered idiot if they had change for it. Some nights, like outside Studio 54 and Danceteria I would make as much as a thousand dollars. Once, Biance Jager just gave me a fifty dollar bill and told me to keep the change. Nightlife is great. But Musto should list the 10 alltime easiest clubs to get sex at.

Re: Musto names 10 Best Clubs Of All Time
seven, Are you kidding? Is that real? If so you are my hero!!! And Lil, Yes, you did cocktail at one of the clubs VERY badly. My advise: Don't give up your DJ career to be a cocktail waitress!

Re: Musto names 10 Best Clubs Of All Time
Hey wait a minute. Getting spilled on by Lilly was arousing. There are thousands of people who would pay for that, uh, but that is a Different nightlife occupation altogether !

Re: Musto names 10 Best Clubs Of All Time
Lilly, a spiller? Who knew? And don't forget who the original Jackie waitress was, Lil... Dee Finley. I doubt if anyone could top Dee in sheer personal volume alone! BTW does anyone else remember the "ghost of Dee Finley" story?

Re: Musto names 10 Best Clubs Of All Time
I completely forgot That de Finley was our first cocktail hag. We were insane. What is the Dee Finley Ghost story?!!!

Re: Musto names 10 Best Clubs Of All Time
Quite a few years ago, Dee vanished. And then finally people began seeing her on the streets, towing a shopping cart and homeless. People tried to help, but it was't much use... this was for about 6 months. The one day, during Clit Club "set up", some of the girls came in and told us she was dead. Sadly enough no one even questioned the story... (this was before Elizabeth Taylor & Dee's miraculous turnaround). A couple of weeks later, Julie Tolentino came into Clit Club "set up" as pale...
