Jan 12, 2011 | 8:18 amHi,
I used to visit a Club called Cat Club, when I was studing in Princeton. We talk about mid 80´s ok.
In that very club, based in the Village, rather well etablished musicians stopped by (Toni Iommi to name just one of Black Sabbath ok) They used to jam then with other equal famed musicians, and yes, the best was the chicks hanging out there ok.
So I read Cat Club´s now all over the Big Apple Square. But does any body have the original Village Club adress for me. Since I like to say a few words on my own website to that great old place.

Jun 16, 2010 | 2:24 pmI was sittin' at the bagel shop near my house at 14th st& 1st ave in Manhattan when I see what appears to be a real eastate broker in a suit and tie looking at and talking about a building across the street with 2 guys. I immediately suspect who the broker is, go home and do some googling, & sure enough, the broker was the one and only Tommy Gunn.Anyone remember him as the promoter who was behind the Wed metal night's?

Sep 03, 2009 | 12:04 pmCan't listen to Tears for Fears without thinking of Casella and many nights at The Cat Club!

With you on that Dorin! I remember the first time going to The Cat on a Wed. night. I didn't know, but it was punk nite and I went "normal". I thought it was Halloween... When I heard Paul mix those songs, I thought to myself "what a slammin' DJ this guy is... who would've known I'd end up marrying him! yep... 24 years and 3 kids later...
