This post reminded me that it has been a long time since there was any talk here about the possible reopening of The Gaiety.

 

Any news on that front - - or is it totally and forever dead?

Zip..As we say in Brooklyn..IF it "hasn't" happened, It probably ain't gonna happen!

 

Those were the days my friend..We thought they'd NEVER end!

 

You have no idea how long I have been waiting to STEAL that line!

 

BUT then again..Never Say Never! LOL

 

:P :

The Gaiety Gets a Wikipedia Article? WHAT!?!?!?!? I need to add to this entry on Wikipedia! There is no mention of this site and many other "tidbits". I see a Yahoo group is listed. EVERYONE .. lets contribute!

"EVERYONE .. lets contribute!"

 

VDN, some of us have contributed plenty to that place. Sadly, nothing is left in NYC to compare it to.

Wikipedia doesn't want/need money or lube. It is free to "contribute" information, pictures, etc. Though it's no longer open it is still a great story to tell.

Also VDN'S Visual's.. were a Great Addition to the Final Discussion's of The "G"...

 

Especialy for Anyone who Never had the Opportunity to see the show's Live and Who Performed there at Various Time's....

When is someone going to write a book about this place?

Clearly there would be a market for it and other similar places with history have been give similar tribute.

Thought of this when I came across an article on this book about a Chicago brothel run by sisters.

Perhaps the Gaiety is too recent to get such treatment? Better that someone who patronized the place write the piece than have someone have to try to piece it together in the future.

It really was an experience like no other, that just doesnt exist anywhere else.

Well let's hope if someone does, that it's not some straight journalist (and it probably would be a female) who really hasn't got a clue about the true nature of such a magical place.

Paging Mr Cooper, paging Mr NYObserver...get thee to a ghost writer immediately!

Aren't Bozo and Sanzy working on that?
