I was a bar-boy at studio 54 for a summer(1977). I was only 15 and I sure learned a lot. I saw so many celebs.
I remember one night there were two private parties and I stood at the back door and let in all these really rich, beautiful people only after they showed me thier invitation.
I think I never did drugs because I watched two Girls licking cocaine off the floor after someone else had dropped it and didn't care. I thought this was so pathetic. I still have the vision in my head. Like a Quintin Tarantino movie.

During the 80s when Freestyle dominated the NYC club scene you had a lot of clubs on the west side...The Tunnel, Red Alert, Roseland, and down on 14th st was The Palladium and there was The Underground on 17th & Broadway.

I believe La'Mours was on the other end of Queens Blvd near The Sage diner. There was one in Brooklyn too. During the 80's they catered to live rock bands, mostly heavy metal and hair bands. |

I think I remember it was called the 2001 Odyssey club in Brooklyn. I saw the Stylistics there. It was great.
