Tier 3 - Forgotten NYC Clubs
Friend of Stupefaction, Andy Schwartz, continues his series of articles of the Lost Clubs of NYC over at Perfect Sound Forever. This time he focuses on Tier 3 which existed from the Spring of '79 thru the end of 1980 in Tribeca in Manhattan.
"In the spring of 1979, Hilary Jaeger (who was 23 and had grown up in the East Village) was working at a TriBeCa restaurant called Tier 3; a few months later, she began booking live bands in the 300-capacity space. Hilary's efforts were bolstered by the punk and new wave enthusiasts previously associated with Stinky's, an irregular floating nightspot that was New York's first "punk disco."
Tier 3 (also known as TR3) lasted only until December 1980, but it was a vital and influential venue in which the new music cross-bred with the experimental art and film scenes of Downtown." Continued here.
Tier 3 notebook schedule, Nov/Dec 1979. Note entries for Madness, 8 Eyed Spy, Lounge Lizards, Polyrock and back-to-back nighs with Glen Branca and Rhys Chatham, courtesy of Perfect Sound Forever & Hilary Jaeger.
