Hurting someone wasn't part of being a Club Kid though, this was secretly done and based on personal greed and drugs. It's nothing to do with the group as a whole.

I remember the club kids, they were so fun to watch, I was actually a club promoter for Limelight, Club Velvet, Webster Hall, Palladium, and The Tunnel in '93-94, the year this episode aired in fact, and I remember partying in my bodysuit, miniskirt, fishnets and combat boots even before I started promoting, it was the best time ever!!

In the early 1980s my older sisters and I had been in downtown Chicago IL by the Limelight Night Club! We saw three club kids all dressed up and I was hooked at 15 yrs old. We rolled down the windows of our car and yelled WE LOVE YOU ALL. Anna is now 54 and still loves them all dearly.

I frequented Limelight but never dressed like this. I remember watching from the balcony. Never took a drug and maybe had one drink. I liked the music too. It always surprised me at how open the drug usage was and they never got busted sooner than they did.

Crazy….. I remember being home from school while sick and seeing this episode. I’m 45 now lol went to the limelight at the tail end before they closed…. At that point the tunnel, sound factory, exit and Twylo were the big clubs. Then Giuliani had them all closed. Nyc was never the same. Now if you want to go out dancing you need to get a table and spend $600 a bottle. Good times back then. They say youth is wasted on the young…. Definitely wasn’t wasted we had a blast!

I liked the scene back at the turn of the millenium the best; the vibe and the flashiness that erupted from people's excitement was such a great thing. There were a FEW people who did dress up a little like this, but the style was completely different. Lots of shiney and silver stuff, flashy lights, etc. So, the atmosphere and clothes were kewl, and everyone was so excited and happy, because of the events of the time. It was pretty neat to experience ^_^

I didn't think this interview would annoy me as much as it did but damn I hope parents have changed their ways since the 20 years this was on. Not trying to get political here but kids are killing themselves because they haven't got anyone who understands them and that even their own parents laugh at them or disown them or are ashamed to have them. And I think one thing Michael and James did great was they gave an opportunity for the kids to express themselves and honestly, I can honestly say that they probably saved a lot of people from killing themselves. It's a shame what happened afterwards with Michael.

One of the cross dresser rooms and hang out and have a blast or 2 LOL! There was always this same guy wore a big dress and a lot of makeup prolly a club kid-big 6ft+ heavy guy that used to always try to dance with me, cut in front of me-whatever girl I was dancing with and bump me-I danced w/him once,we all got a kick out of it. my friends would break my balls-Say I was going to the other side. He knew I was straight but he was having his fun, wish I knew his name. RealBigXDresserGuy.My friends & I hit several Clubs a Night eat E and go to tunnel at like 4am Dance to Junior Vasquez till 9/10am. we would all come out of the club with the sun Shining-like a bunch of vampires. Still energized. Go to breakfast,Than sleep or work all DayMeet-up-rinse and repeat.AAH! MISS the shit out of them DAYS!

I never did anything stronger than shots, and that was true for most of my friend and other promoters I worked with, and even the few that did pot, they never got into anything stronger than a joint, so not everyone who partied in Limelight or any of the clubs, in this era did drugs, and I loved the club kids, they were friendly and entertaining and not all were junkies, so it's not a fair assumption.
