I have great memories from the funky nightclubs like Xenon, Studio 54, New York New York, the fantastic concerts at CBGB and of course the seedy clubs in the Meatpacking District. Now this landmark is turning more and more into some kind of Disneyland for tourists and fancy shoppers. The next thing will be that somebody will rebuild a Meatpacking District Casino in Las Vegas with plastic fassades with s/m clubs, fake hookers and a restaurant called Florent (Mr. Morellet will get a huge sum for the label rights of course!)
