Reply to "57 Varieties ( Club 57 Remembered)"

That was the best Club 57!
I did one of my very first "performance art pieces" there. I was in art school (School of Visual Arts) at the time. I hooked up two big BORROWED tv sets to all of this electronic equipment that Laurie Anderson loaned me (God bless her). It was all choreographed to a disco drum beat with this drummer guy that I met in the park. He now has gone on to drum with hundreds of DJs in hundreds of clubs but believe me, that was the first time. He really didn't understand my concept but he understood the concept of $. It's funny to see him now in clubs drumming with DJs (like he invented it).
but I digress...
All these people came to see my "performance". The room was full. I played about 3 seconds, the drummer hit the kick drum hooked up to this electronic crap and the whole thing exploded! The show was over in 3 seconds. Both TVs destroyed.
Oh Art School!
Anyway,
I remember "Cuban Heels". You were really good! (You didn't explode) I also remember good ole Stanley. Such a sweet guy. I can't believe the stuff he used to let us do there. I saw him a few years ago. He is still ruling. He still remembered me too. I wish Dany would come in this topic again because she REALLY has stories! I don't remember "Lady Bug". Maybe Hattie does.

This is a picture of me from Art School. (Same time as my big Club 57 Show) I thought I was so avande guard.
