| 词条 | The World (nightclub) |
| 释义 |
An early incubator of New York's house music and club kid scenes, the World helped launch the careers of several prominent nightlife figures, including Michael Alig, DJ Larry Tee, DJ David Morales, DJ Frankie Knuckles, DJ Kip Lavinger, the Lady Bunny, and Dean Johnson, whose Tuesday night "Rock and Roll Fag Bar" party gave rise to New York's gay rock and roll scene.[3][4] Several big-name music acts also made cameo appearances at The World, including David Bowie, the Beastie Boys, Sinéad O'Connor, Public Enemy, Neil Young, The Sugarcubes, Salt-N-Pepa, and Pink Floyd.[5] It was also used as one of the filming locations for Devo's 1988 music video for the song "Disco Dancer" The World operated largely outside the law, and opened and closed unpredictably. It ceased operations permanently in 1991, when its owner was found dead on the premises.[1] The building that housed The World was subsequently demolished and replaced with a luxury apartment building.
