Following up from the great video from The Tube earlier this summer, here's another find: A trip through more clubs of 1980s New York City, albeit slightly more underground and on the performance art side of things. Included are the Palladium, Limelight, Danceteria, Wah Wah Hut, Mars, The Copa and more. Karen Finley, Ethyl Eichelberger, Michael Musto, Holly Woodlawn, Kenny Kenny, Jayne County, and others make appearances. This montage is from the videos of Nelson Sullivan, created by Robert Coddington for the Avant-Garde-A-Rama at PS 122 NYC.
As an added bonus, here's some sort of TV commercial made for the Ritz (now Webster Hall for those of you who don't know). Judging by the quality, I'd say it was made for cable access.
