That is one hell of a roster of deejays. Very impressive!!

It was a great roster and I am proud to have been a part of it. Truly one of the all-time great discotheques.

The owner was Sam Hadid the doorman was Derf Belvedar. The only major change when it went from 12 West to the Riverclub was that they put a spiral staircase right off the dance floor leading to one of the upstair's lounges (there were two).

I believe 2 Tons of Fun sang "It's rainding men" coming down that stair case. We all thought the Metal spiral Stair case was going to collapse while they were singing.
