Funhouse (Fun House)

Does anyone remember GUNSMOKE BREAKOUT?

Scott, Ditto.

Dave the Rave, those flashbacks are crazy, aren't they?


Joey Cam, I want someone very familiar with the layout of the place to look at the full pic and tell me exactly where that Jester was. I am guessing that it was by the entrance.

It was snapped in August 1982.

Dave the Rave, here's another pic for you:

http://www.geocities.com/funhousedaze/Gallery.html

I'll be building this site slowly, so more pics will post eventually.

Remember the game room? I have a pic of one of the pinball machines, too -- somewhere... still digging for the buried treasure chests.

well another reunion party went off great thanks to tweedy had great time can't wait for next one after holiday everybody stay safe see you soon

Hey BettyBoop,

Remember running into me on Bath Ave. and telling me to find you if there was ever a reunion?

Marialisa,
Not only remember Gunsmoke Breakout, still have it and played it as early as 3 weeks ago.

HEY EVERYONE,

IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY, SEND ME AN E-MAIL WITH YOUR FIRST NAME FOR AN E-VITE TO THE PARTY I'M ARRANGING. ALSO INCLUDE HOW MANY WILL ATTEND WITH YOU.

THE CURRENT LIST ALREADY HAS 15 PEOPLE THAT WILL ATTEND AND I ONLY ANNOUNCED IT LAST WEEK AND STILL HAVEN'T SET A DATE YET.

Joey Cam,

The night Planet Patrol was there, Jellybean didn't end up spinning that night.

It was Junior Vasquez who did a guest spotlight night on that evening. I'm not sure why Jellybean didn't do it.

But I do remember that they gave away Colored Vinyl Albums, and I stored mine in the back of Junior's Records in the booth with his OK while I went back to dance. I retrieved it at the end of the night.

Scott man you got a good memory.

joey cam

I have that Purple album too, its worth something like 60 dollars.

Scott,
i didnt see that you had your shirt on the site,i remember going to your house and listening to records you loved to dj that was all you would talk about. I also have gunsmoke breakout and recently listened to it, in fact i have many great albums. let me know about the the next party. you probably would remember me by just maria

the bubble bunch..........

Rocking to the beat....

joe cam

Morning Dancer,
Yes, I do remember the game room.Didnt you have to walk through the game room to get to the mens bathroom?
Does anyone remember a place in Brooklyn called Romeo and Juliets? Everyone that hung out at the FH use to go there on Wednesday nights.
Keep the pictures coming the "FLASHBACKS" are getting better and better!!!
Peace!

Maria you got me thinkin now, but let's see if it come's to me. Have you sent me an email so I can add you to the master list I have.

Joe Cam, was listening to that and Worlds Famous Supreme Team last week.

My name is Nicholas, this is great reading all these stories about the Funhouse. I danced I with my friends Romeo,Armando,Jose,Rio,& Dana plus our girlfriends at the time.We were by the middle stage were the dance floor started.Romeo to this day says the Funhouse was the BEST club of all time and I agree with him.We danced all different styles of dance loft-kickdancing-uprock-poplock-B-boying. The best dancers from N.Y.& N.J. hung out at the Funhouse and I learned from watching them.We also did 2 man helicopters and 3 man. I used to pick Romeo up and put him on my head and spin so fast that Romeo called it flying.I remember watching Lenny and Todd on the other side of the stage doing there thing and you can't forget the b-boys at back stage like Chino from Incredible Breakers and the Dynamic Rockers what battles I had the plesure of watching.This place had it all the best DJ JELLYBEAN, the music,the lightshow, the SHOWS "OH MY GOD THE SHOWS"!!!there are so many artist who performed there it will take me to long to list.the people themselves, the energy was crazy. And it was a Phenomenon in it's time. Thanks JOE for giving us the Funhouse.I will email again with some great stories and pictures. Thanks again for the memories. Nicholas aka Funhouse B-boy--BodyandSoulDancers.........

Nicholas, you said, "The best dancers from N.Y.& N.J. hung out at the Funhouse."

No doubt.

Can't wait to see your pics.

I've got one big heart for everyone that ever danced there.

The following two photos submitted by Morning Dancer
Left Pic: What happens 'upstairs' stays upstairs.
Right Pic: If only the Fun House Jester on the wall could talk.

Dave the Rave! You use to go to Romeo & Juliet's, too?

They never played songs like 'Romeo & Juliet' and 'Come to Me' at the Funhouse. We had a different playlist there.

And yes, the boys' room was in the game room. You don't remember?

I can never forget the girls' room. It was an event walking in there. I have no idea what went on in the boys' room, but let's just say, the party never stopped.

How bout..Us (Full Force, Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam)b4 the records..waiting patiently for Arthur Baker & John Robie to come through at about 2:am with whatever their NEW hot test record was..(on 2 inch tape)Now How OLD school am I????LOL Jenny Burton..
Chaka Khan's My Love is Alive remixes..etc..
Etched in my head..for Life...
the CLOWN LIVES!!!!

Baby Gerry?

No way. You know me, I know you -- I got pics of you (before FF) if that's really you!

check out this pic and tell me who you recognize, drop me a line from the e-mail link on the 'music videos' page, if that's you.

www.geocities.com/funhousedaze

Baby Gerry,

sorry, wrong page. the pic is here:

http://www.geocities.com/funhousedaze/Gallery.html

Name that tune:

"People come and go
Life is strange, you know
When I thought it was over
Things started changin'...

Victim of change..."

morning dancer,

that is remember by gino soccio it is one of my favs i can remember begging randy to play it one night and he did.i always tried to figure out what they were saying in the backround. love it!
marialisa

Maria,

Is that you Bell? Yonkers to Canarsie?

Baby Gerry I was listening to Jenny Burton "Rock Steady just yesterday, oh and the day before, lol

Hey Morning Dancer, I was lsitening to Remember in the car the other day on one of my old mixed cassettes. I think it was live from Cloud Nine, that was the nae of the club in NJ I was spinning at when I made it.

I still have lots of old mixed cassettes, that I am converting to mp3's.

DAVE THE RAVE,ROMEO & JULIETS WAS THE BEST ON WEDNESDAY NIGHTS. WHERE DO YOU COME FROM.?

JOEY CAM..

SCOTT K. I USED TO HAVE THIS 12 INCH CALLED -ITS YOUR ROCK- DO YOU REMEMBER THAT IN THE FH & HOW GOOD IT SOUNDED.?..

JOE CAM.

SCOTT,

THAT IS ME, HAVE NOT HEARD BELL IN YEARS LOL. I HAVE BEEN LIVIN IN BROOKLYN SINCE 88. AS A MATTER OF FACT I WORKED IN JJ BALAN FOR LIKE A SECOND IN 94 MY FRIEND ILENE WAS WORKING THERE AT THE TIME AND JOHN SPAMP. I WAS NOT ABLE TO EMAIL YOU. JUST KEEP ME INFORMED. GLAD TO HEAR YOUR DOING WELL. THIS SITE IS GREAT I AM SO GLAD THAT THERE ARE OTHER FREAKS BESIDES ME WHO HAD SOME OF THERE BEST TIMES AT THE FUNHOUSE.

MARIA AKA BELL

Joe Cam,

Sure I remember It's your Rock, I also still have it. I was listening to it yesterday mixed with Crash Crew, Rockin on yor Radiooo!

Hey Bell,

Ah I did remember. Are you still friendly with Lori Mc, or Betty Boop, or anyone else for that matter? I do remember Spamp. I also had dinner with all the old Balan owners a few months ago.

You can e-mail me and listen some mixes I did here, www.myinnovativeideas.ws/page2.html

Yust a short visit at your club...........fantastic!

Disco is becoming a second live in the Netherlands now-adays..........yust fun every saturday-night!

Yust wait and see New York, and it will happen again, those glorious days

Best wishes from Holland

Marcoh:
In Amsterdam? Great city! Great people. Been there.

Marielisa:
I use to wonder the same thing about the background buzz in Remember, too. Wasn't it in French? I haven't heard it in years. It's still on vinyl for me, and I don't have a turntable.

It use to give me that feeling like trying to grasp at a deep memory -- a feeling that prevails with muffled words that get cloudy over the years.

I'm sure it was a deliberate effect.

Pic of the week:
Remember the Bumper Cars?

http://www.geocities.com/funhousedaze/Gallery3.html

This is a shout out to Michael and Shy-Shy, too.

Why be such a stranger at this stage?

Wow, talk about stumbling on to a page that stirs up memories!! One person above asked if anyone remembered Bobby Anderson from OZ park. That's me, but I was from the Bronx. We just hung out and ventured out to chill with people from OZ, Brooklyn, Jersey, etc. I hung out at the middle stage and was one of the first to start the kick dancing craze. We were all into martial arts at the time. In fact, one day I slept over my friend Johnny Spaceman's house and had no sneakers since we went out to a dress up club the night before. I had to borrow his chinese slippers so I could dance right, next thing I know the following week everyones wearing chinese slippers and kung fu pants.. Those were the days. My crew was Ronnie Bam Bam from Jersey, Frankie Scooter (BX), Johhny Space (Bx), Bobby Bones (Bx), (the whole Allerton Avenue, Pelham Pkwy, Arthur Avenue, Morris Park crew combined). I was good friends with people from all over like Sal sex machine (brooklyn), we made circles and battled with Lenny and Todd, etc from jersey. The OZ boys hung out; joey Gallo, Nicky L., Sal Bianchi from Canarsie. I miss those days like crazy. Me and Ronnie bam bam hung at the front desk with Ronnie B. alot. I danced in two videos from the Funhouse. I was in "Confusion" by New Order throwing spinning kicks and also did the Planet Patrol video filmed there " didnt know I loved you till I saw you rock and roll". That was one song that bombed :). Anyway, thanks for bringing back some good time. Peace...

Scott,

No i dont see lori or betty boop anymore lost contact years ago. I do still see sharon we stayed friends through the years.
marialisa

morning dancer,

your right it is french gino soccio is french canadian i still have a turntable i had packed it away years ago took it out recently and listened to some good stuff like emotional disquise, back to my roots,and babe ruths mexican.. maybe someone out there knows what she is saying or are curious about like us

marialisa

Thay's exactly right BELL,
Going back to my Roots
My Love is Alive
It's Sunshine Partytime and everyone's feelin' fine.
I can turn it out, and everything is happening when I ROLLLL!

Marialisa aka Bell

How are you? It's been a long time. Those were the days! I don't keep in touch with anyone but my pal Lorraine still. I wonder what happened to Lori, maybe she'll pop up here on a posting one day.


Morning Dancer

In the pic with the bumper cars is that Darlene on the left? Also what are the names of the other two girls with her, I can't seem to remember.
These sites are great, I truly enjoy reminissing about some of the best days of my teenage years.


Scott

I don't remember running into you, how long ago was that? Anyway, I try to keep coming to these sites to stay posted on what's going on and if a reunion is ever going to take place. Can you let me know who put out the song...ummm....Ain't no words to this song...you just dance and hum along....so sister dance...
I used to bug big time to this but for the life of me can't remember who put it out. Thanks for your help.

It's great reading about all of you, I'm so glad everyone is doing well.
I hope one day we can all bug again together!


Betty Boop

Betty Boop,

I saw your postings and I thought it was you great to hear from you! That song your asking about believe or not was the Jackson five hum along and dance.
maria

Maria

That's what I thought, but someone told me I was wrong and suggested that it was Sly & The Family Stone. Thanks alot for clearing it up for me.

Hey boop; you don't remember me? It's Rob from the bronx. You used to hang out with me and Ronnie Bam Bam and Sal"sex machine'? What's going on? This is the boop from bensonhurst,
G---a right...

Betty Boop:
I could not remember her name, but Darlene sounds right! The middle girl had a sister -- and once again, the memory fails with the name. I think that's her sister in the pic I posted above (3rd from the left).

As for the girl on the right, her name is Cindy. You know her? There's no way you can't know me, if you know her -- at least by face. We use to be tight.

Marialisa: You know your music! Emotional Disguise was one of my faves.

Name this tune:

"They met one day in a summer storm
Her senses told her that it was wrong
She was a young lady of 23
He was a child of technology…

He wasn't programmed to understand -
Though technically he was a man
Love wasn't in his capacity...

I'm a little may-ey-hey-ey-an
I'm made of _________
There ain't no way to ever love you"

Try to guess before you hear it.

You can hear it at DJ Dynasty’s site for free:
http://www.musicv2.com/artist/djdynasty

Look for: “Funhouse Mix” Some electro funk of the early 80

(Emotional Disguise is in the mix, too.)

Enjoy!

Morning Dancer,
I have both, the 12" to Kongas, and a 12" promo of Macho, I'm a man.

Scott,
Will you be DJ at a reunion? I can't email you to that site but you have my email.

Maria

JoeyGhost - that dj space at Roseland is so huge! Great view. A friend of mine had that spot for awhile, too.

Grace is the bomb.
Lyrics interlude:
"you're just 16; I'm 2 times that.
Tell me what you're momma's gonna think about that... Feel up Feel up!" lol

I have a great remix of that. Dare I say, one of my... uh-oh... FAVES!

JOEY I

Hey JoeyGhost,
Daytona is about a 3 1/2 hour ride to me. Not too bad but damm Fl is such a long state. I have just about everything we need and would look forward to get a few FH mixes together here. Of course bringing some of your own tunes would be welcomed. We could trade and stuff as well.
JOEY I
Thanks for the kind words and I am glad to be part of keeping the Funhouse music alive. I keep lurking the forum and get alot of ideas and inspiration.

Hey Joey Ghost, Some of us Buggers myself included,changed the words to that song. Does anyone remember singing "Dust is a must we must have Dust" What a Flashback!!!!!!!

Since this is a ‘disco’ site, I wanted to point out a delicious re-mix of an old Leo Sayer tune. (Don’t make fun of him just because he’s a white guy with an afro.)

Before:

After:
http://www.free2airrecordings.com/meckvid/?quality=med

Dave the Rave, I remember that. It makes me remember the dark side of the FH, though. I lost 2 friends 'in the dust' - not physically, but mentally. Very sad to see the damage it did to them.

Morning Dancer,

I also had some good friends who were lost to dust one would smoke with anyone anywhere she really didnt care as long as she was high. She was kinda funny though she would change songs like Just Begun to Dust Begun. But she did ruin many nights for me with her addiction. Things really got bad for her last she was in jail, a real shame.

Marialisa

There's a pic of Darlene in the 1st set of pics I sent in.

BERNIE - I sent in a bunch of pictures yesterday morning. They're not up yet.

remember these ???
(the not so popular, but not forgotten)

This Page Has Been Reactivated With Some Changes

To all the Funhouse members,

Technically this page has maxed out and is starting to affect the server and response times. As everyone can see this page can no longer handle all the posts / photos and takes a while to load.

I think I have found a solution that will allow this FunHouse page to remain active and open to new postings. Instead of the one long page, which kept getting longer, it is now split into multiple pages so in order to view the newest comments you'll need to keep clicking on the Next >>> link at the bottom of each page. I know it's not perfect, but it's better than closing the whole page down to all posting. Hope this helps.

The Funhouse page has reopened!

The Funhouse rocks.......forever!

Wow, Funhouse was my home on the weekend I would go with my sister and we'd dance all nite. Not only that we had several outfit changes as the nite went along and don't forget the milk and cookies in the wee hours of the morning. We would leave at 6 when they closed and have breakfast up the block at the diner. WOW those were the days.

Wow there was nothing like going in and leaving with the music still inside you. Having the milk and cookies for the second wind was awesome.

DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THE SONG BY KLEER "THE KLEER THING" ?

JELLYBEAN ERA.

JOEY CAM

CAMONE, I have 2 copies of the album. Kleeer and its called "Da Kleeer Ting"

MARK, IS THAT A GREAT SONG OR WHAT? DID YOU HEAR ON 102.7 THAT JELLYBEAN IS DJing AT THE SUPPER CLUB THIS THURSDAY THEY EVEN MENTION THAT HE WILL BE PAYING FUNHOUSE CLASSICS. BAD THING THAT ITS TICKETS ONLY IF YPU WIN THEM FROM 102.7

JOEY CAM

Would be great if someone could comb through all these postings and compile a complete list of every song. Any volunteers :-)??? I am working on a mixed CD with the most popular songs. Everytime I play the rough cut, it brings me back to the old days.

If anyone is interested where Jellybean will be spinning in the future go to myspace.com/jellybean benitez he posts it on his site. Also, just want to let you all know that me and Lorraine have started to upload our old Funhouse pics, hopefully we'll be able to post them here sometime next week. Sorry it's taking a while as we are married with children and are quite busy. When the pics are finally up we hope everyone will enjoy remembering some of the old Funhouse regulars!

Jellybean has posted on his site a Funhouse Reunion Party for March 2007....Could this be the big one? Hope so. If I find out any other info, I'll post it!
Ciao

What about Clear by Cybotron?

Scott,

Great song by Cybotron. 83-84 had some really good underground '' Electronic ''freestyle.Another good one was '' Who you stealin from '' GURU.

The summer of 1982, and I remember Raw Silk's "Do it to the Music" and seeing Gino Soccio's singers doing "It's Allright". It was fun, I used to hang with a group of latinos doing the hustle. In particular, I remember this little girl named Bluette.

More random photos taken at the Fun House Night Club:

Hope all of you have a Safe, Healthy , and Happy New Year!!

Wow, I can't believe I found this posting. I use to work at the FunHouse when I was 15 yrs old passing out flyers and cleaning up when we closed down at 9:00 am! I remember Madonna put my head under her skirt and told me to stop being a pervert during the middle of her act while I was sitting on the outside of the stage. I was 15 years old, 120 lbs soaking wet and man was I embarassed!

They were great times! I wish I knew about the reunion I would have flown in from L.A. just to be with the old gang.

Joe from NYC

Joe De Marzio,

Contact me, juice1x_2000@yahoo.com

Joe Rox,

Marialisa,
Happy New Year! Haven't seen any posts from you for a while. You should stop by the www.funhousebuggas.com site. There are lots of people there I'm sure you will remember and we have been posting lots of old pics that will really bring back some memories. Hope to see you posting there soon.

I would like to say that this site www.musicv2.com/artist/djdynasty is the absolute best to download great Fun House mixes. I had to download about 10 different mixes already! Thank you DJDynasty, your mixes are unbelievable and brings me back as if it was a saturday night in the Fun House all over again! I recommend all buggas go to his site listen to his music and I can bet you will be brought back in time.

Ahhh, Thanks for the kind words Betty, I am glad to be part of keeping this music alive. An easier link to remember is www.djdynastymusic.com If that gives you a problem use the link Betty has posted above.

Betty Boop,

Happy New Year to you as well.I will definitely be visiting that site.

Maria

DJ Dynasty...sorry if I didn't mention it, but you should also check out www.funhousebuggas.com I think you too would remember some faces. It's a great site and lots of people from this site are there as well.

Being taken out of the context of a whole night leaves alot unheard. And to add it really could be anyone @ the Funhouse or anyone anywhere for that matter. There are so many hands that it might of passed before posted. Think of the telephone game.

I can remember taking the PATH train on Saturday night from NJ. Walking up the block on W 23rd st you could hear the thumping of the base coming from "New York's #1 proven sound system" (That's what the flyers say.) I have several of them in great shape I might add some 20 years later. I even have one from the night James Brown appeared. I was a DJ (weren't most people) and have many of the 12" classics in storage just screaming to be placed back on the turntable once again. Please keep me in the loop when a reunion in 07' is organized. I would like to go back to a time that was much simpler than today.

I found this page by accident, but it feels like I'm in a time capsule. All the songs, names, stories, great times!!! Anyone remember when James Brown appeared? It was a Sunday night. The 'House was rockin that night.
Then there was A Saturday night when Shannon ("Let the music play"), played at the club I deejaying at and had to get to the 'house cause she was do on stage by 1:00 am. She put me on the guest list and when I got to front door, Ronnie did'nt believe me. He checked the list, and there it was; "Benny D + 3". I was on cloud 9 that night. Anyone remember that peformance? The crowd was absolutely crazy for her that night, she was in tears. Those are some quick hits from me. Those times can never be duplicated, but nothing can ever change our memories. Nice talking to all of you, enjoy the rest of the stories!
Until then... Benny

Benny,

I do remember when Shannon played, and wehn James Brown was there. 2 of many nights remembered.

You might find some lost friends and acquaintances here, www.funhousebuggas.com

Scott Kaplan, were you in Intermetro Record Pool? Dewayne Dixon was the pool director. Your name sounds familiar. let me know.
Here are a couple of more Funhouse Favorites:
"3,000,000 Synths" (Flip side of "Glad to know you" Chas Jankel),
"I need love" (instrumental): Capricorn.
Keep the memories coming.
Until then... Benny

June23 is gonna be a blast hope to see all my old bubby from the past i miss those day

Hey Everyone,

Unfortunately I have a little bit of bad news. The June 23rd party is going to have to be temporarily postponed and moved to a later date. The reason for this is this party has simply grown way to big to hold in the venue we origianlly booked.

In the best interest everyone and the party, we will have to find another location, and possibly another date.

The last thing I want to happen is to have the party raided and shutdown or have someone get hurt because too many people were in the club. It would be unsafe and unfair to everyone, especially those making plans to fly or drive long distances in from another state.

Also, we will be filming a movie about the Fun House live on that night!! So if you were originally unable to attend you will get a second chance.

I am already working on alternatives for this, and hoping I can still do the 23rd, but right now I have no guarantees as of yet. I am hoping to have a few answers in the next couple of days.

I will be in touch with everyone and keep you posted.

For those of you who already have their passes, they will be honored for the future date. New passes will be issued.

I truly apologize to all of you from the bottom of my heart for any inconvenience this may have caused.


Thank you,
Scott Kaplan
aka
DJ Juice

THE JUICE CREW - Jelly Bean Named Us -
Hey DEE - Remember - Kim - Eva - Gen - Idalas - Tony - Gary - Jose ( the donutz)
We did own & rock the back stage.

Our names are alive in Jelly Beans- mix -
of the song " Get Wet" Kim is wet , Eva's wet- Do you remember?.
Remember we were All on the cover of the Village Voice?
I know you wrote a long time ago but I hope you check in. If so
Or anyone else that used to Breask on the back stage. I was the girl with the short hair that used to Pop & spin guys on my head. They called me - Spinner for a while cause I could spin on the floor like an - Ice skater spins on the Ice.
Remember - Washington Square Park? We'd hang out & dance all day !! After dancing all night @ the Fun House.

Holler back.

Kim

Kim,

You can find alot of people here,

We are having a Halloween Party that will be on Friday, October 26th, 2007.

I couldnt wait till the weekend came around to go dancing such goodtimes!nothing like those days ever again although i still go dancing but the fun that we all had back then doesnt compare like today never again!

big party going on sept 15 hope to see you all there

Benny D - I will never forget that night-
Shannon (let the music play) was there. Me & my crew were supposed to be her back up dancers that night. At the very last minute she decided against it. She complained that with us dancing No one would be looking at her. So after all our hard work, new costumes and everyone expecting to see us perform, we were out.
Well I went off on her and I was asked to cool off outside. THE Best part was... When I came back in, Shannon was rehearsing her song and she threw the mic down on the floor, It was Madonna's mic (Madonna was rehearsing too) Madonna was pissed and went off on Shannon. I was so happy!!! We went on to bigger & better things anyway. I'll tell you The Fun House had the most amazing entertainers perform there! That place was the best. It was my home away from home. I still have Herbie Hancocks Albulm that he handed me when I was hanging out in the VIP room near the DJ booth.

Sweatshirts available….

There will be sweatshirts available soon. I’m taking orders. They will be Black with the White Clown in the front and Fun House in the back. They are $20 a piece. Let me know if you are interested. funhousebuggas@yahoo.com

Halloween Tickets are available!!!

I have tickets for the Halloween Bash on Friday, October 26, 2007. Let me know how you want to get tickets. Email me at funhouse_halloween@yahoo.com

Hey Kim, I remember the night Madonna performed with the wireless mic and it was cutting in-and-out on her. That was about the time those mics were relatively new. Anyway, she stopped the show so they could change the system to the wired mics, and she was on stage baby-talking to Jellybean that she still loved him and "you wouldn't do this to me, would you?"
This was right after they had broken up, I was laughing because I think it was the first time she was embarresed. I'm not to fond of Madonna. I'll tell you that story another time.
Until then...
Benny

I can't believe the pictures on this page. It brings back some real wild years there for me. 1980-1982 There is actually a picture of Pete the Freak! God I had some unbelieve fun at that place. I also noticed a picture of Ronnie. Those Saturdays(and alot of Fridays) were just .......I can't even put it into words. There will never be another place like that again. It was just a huge party with great music. Anybody know of Jimmy Ragona??? I'm just glad to see some people are still alive from there !!!!

Hey people......I just want to say thank-you to everybody who made Saturday night's at the Funhouse happen. Unforgetable times. And to Jimmy "bowling shoes" Ragona & his 697's, thanks for keep'in me danc'in. I hope you are well & healthy wherever you are. I'm just glad we made it out alive. Hi Ronnie !!!!

======================================

Is that the Pitkin Ave. Crew? Peter, Jimmy & Anthony were brother.. One of them Married Joanne

So I was at the FH - Dam it's hard to remember- 1980- through 82... I worked 2 days a week made 66 bucks Of cause no one I knew finished school we all dropped out of F.K Lane But those 2 days I worked was for the FH. When I was there Angelo was at the door. Of cause Ronnie - wearing his feather boa. Jelly Bean was there. I'd get there 10:50 and drop a double barrel And dance my a** off till 7 and start heading back to OZ. I stood with all the guys from the All in the Family Newstand and we danced on the center stage... Gosh Now I'm 43 and my son is a year older than me when I first went to TFH...

I have to vote for

Party Dec 15 at peggy o"neill's hope to see all soon

How come so many of the posts have incorrect spelling and poor grammar? The Funhouse was filled with petty criminals from the ethnic neighborhoods of NYC. I should know, I was one of them. But at least I learned how to spell in the last 30 years.

Hello All. I enjoyed reading your comments. This is great. I was only 16 at the time and had to sneak out of the house because my Dad didn't want me to go to the Funhouse. It was all good times. I was there for a few of the raids and I was so nerdy at the time, I found them exciting! LOL. LEE BOTZ, what's up? It's Debbie from Ozone Park. we used to hang with Mike (Gary Ganu's brother who got shot) on Lefferts Blvd. I remember your other friend Debbie from Staten Island. we also hung out with Wendy from Howard Beach. It was fun!

"How come so many of the posts have incorrect spelling and poor grammar? "

Mario , you are so right on this subject. I say it's one or the other...
drugs burnt the brain or the fact you'll never find a book store in an italian neighborhood.
hahahaha and I can say that.
kat

I knew these peoples!!!!!!

<img src=http://www.discomusic.com/images/photos/clubs/Funhouse-Reunion-4-6-06-019.jpg>

Dino? As in James & Dino?

Yes I remember smurfing to Planet Rock in unison - lol.

FH was real live, though I don't think everyone truly realized just how influential it would come to be. With all the press on Paradise & Loft, I don't think enough people knew about FH.

its funny how everbody seemed too young to be ALLLOWED IN THE FH.myself included i remember the first time going there,i think it was halloween 81,i was in 8th grade!my older sisters had to take after bugging them for months.i put on a cheap "sheik"costume(a plain white shheet with a head band around to conceal how young i was)going through the maze of mirrors and hearing the awesome sound system i knew this place was special.i was a little shy at first but litle by litle i started to dance.i was more into jellybeans mixing though and i couldnt wait to go to school (jhs 217) in queens and brag about going to the funhouse.thanks to my sisters for putting up with me...disco circus is definetely their anthem.

My name is Mike. I was from the Sheepsheag Bay projects. I knew many of the buggers. We would do our thing to get polluted then have fun all night. I was a little younger than them so I sort of just watched for awhile. I looked up to the buggers. Darlene was so pretty and confident back then. Tough too. I was friends with Kenny who died in prison last November. He had the funhouse clown tattooed on his arm. We were bad kids at the time. The things we did for money still amaze me. Amazed the judge too who allowed me to go in the Marines instead of Jail LOL. I left in Oct of 81 and would come home on leave and see the Funhouse through the changes it went through. So many friends were dusted now. Kenny went and did 3 1/2 years in prison for the same crap we did together. Younger kids were break dancing instead of bugging. Since we had urine tests in the Marines, I had to stay straight so it was pretty boring ;)Actually, I gave it all up for those four years and even for four years after. Not a drop of alcohol even. If I could have, I would have stayed away from trouble. Even in the service, I saw guys getting locked up for that crap. I miss those Funhouse days though. For some reason (who's house did I get it from), I had a real 35mm camera and took a few pictures. I regret not taking more. I should have taken pics in the summer of 81 when we would all go back and sit on the benches after breaking night at the Funhouse. Bobby Perez brought the buggers back to chill in the projects. Adalis Leon who became a singer/actress/MTV VG was part of our circle. Not a bugger but a girl from the area who liked to hang out in the projects. Her sister was hotter I must say ;) Howie and Mark, Joey do-it. I remember Joey wanted to be a cop and we thought that was nuts. They said he had a fast heart rate and was disqualified or something. I wonder why LOL. I hope he is the one who I am talking about. Ronnie once came over to the apt on Ave U. His car got the window smashed if I remember. A Cadillac. I have one pic of Mark Bugger outside a store on Ave X. If it is the same Mark. He has a red Cocaine shirt on that looks like a Coca Cola shirt. He is blowing smoke out I think. A very clear pic that looks like it was taken yesterday. I will have to look in the album. I saw Bobby MOO Moo over the years. I gave him his pics from that day and he looked down and was stunned. Him in his youth. The pics came out from under plastic for the first time since 81. Ann sent me a pic in the Marines that I still have. I think it is her, Jill and Darlene in the back of the Funhouse. Ann was a pisser. Thought she was Marilyn Monroe for a while there. She would lock onto a guy and call him Joe (as in Dimmaggio). She was so pretty with those dark haired features. I used to ride around with Jill. She had a taxi that her dad owned if I remember right. She was so sweet. People felt bad for her but we didn't. She was just one of us. Someone said she passed away. I hope not. That hit me the same way when someone told me a few Marine buddies were killed when I was in Beirut in 83. Anyway, peace and love to all of the people I crossed paths with. Especially the buggers. If our kids only knew!

What a place! It was a FUNHOUSE. The best deejays, the best sound and lights. A very mixed crowd always, leaning towards a gay club, but I picked up a few females there. On my scale it gets a 10.

Hey Kid -

i wasn't sure when you mention Baby Huey - If it was who I knew, but once you said Russo center stage - It must be the same person.
WOW he passed?? When? I'm a year or 2 older, I'm one of those Big Hair Girls from the Newsstand. I hung with Roy, Sal, Nicky B, Jackie the Quack WAS MY BEST Friend, It killed me when he passed,

So What happened with Huey? and when?

I saw Russo about 8 months ago and couldn't get him to dance for NOTHING! I think he works for Verizon -

Ciao
Lena

http://funhousebuggas.com/2008/06/02/official-original-fun-house-29yr-reunion/

Fri is just around the corner Hope to see all my Peeps Peace

Oh my gosh, what memories and WHaT INcredible songs you guys brought back to me! Gosh I loved wearing my red and white striped shorts with keds and cut off shirts to the funhouse where we could dance til 8am and hear the song "Mexican" as the doors would be opening...Morning sad mornin..lol. I have a few songs that I didn't see here...remember Stone Fox Chase? That has to be up there because I think Funhouse is the only club that ever played that song...and of course how bout Tony Cooks On the floor - I betcha you can't say ooh ooh aah I betcha ya can't say aah aaah. That was classic...well I am in FL now and WISH so badly that I could be there for your reuinion...just to dance til 8 am and watch all the kick dancers reuinite would be worth it alone. They were the hottest men in any club I ever seen, with six packs and cut off shorts, chinese slippers and head bands..lol well we could do without the headbands haha. Funhouse rocks! Keep this going guys!

SOO how was it buggers? How was the party last night peoples..I gotta know! Email me nfs.kg@hotmail.com or universal_sounds1@hotmail.com

I am looking to do a Funhouse mix also,yes I am a DJ and have almost all of the songs...just missing a few on cd..anyone can help?

Oh my gosh the pics were great. Looked like you guys were jammin. I read the comments though and it doesn't look like many were happy with the venue...hey no worries, there is going to be a next one right!? Hope to have one here in FL also. Any former FH addicts here in FL? Email me @ nfs.kg@hotmail.com so we could chat. By the way, I don't know if everyone on here knows this but you can see some very cool funhouse memories on Youtube.com. Type in Funhouse and there is an excellent video with WKTU showing off Adam kick boxing. THen type in "Confusion" or New Order and you will see awesome coverage. Lastly, type in Planet Patrol and look for the song Didn't know I loved you" and you will see more awesome video coverage. Keep this going guys, maybe we could get together all the old funhouse addicts like me under one roof one day and get thousands just like the old days...I believe this can happen and it would be awesome.

To whom it my concern. I was a bar tender at the Fun House for 5 years. I was the only bar maid with black hair. I have a Fun House wallet. It's red with the clown face on it. Even though I worked there, It was always a party to me, Kept all of you in line , but it was a good thing. Joe, Monk, is an old and dear friend of mine. Grew up together. I have wonderful memories of that place, if any one knows where Johnny MO, is , tell him I'm looking for him.To all of you. Hello again. Do any of you remember me? I was always there. God knows how many drinks I served you, and how many times I looked out for you, and kept you in line.Do you remember ME?

It's in 2 parts.

See you all soon!!

I lived in Brooklyn and my friend Ray was good friends with Johnny Mo who worked at the club. I was real young at the time but I had a way of gettin in there. Johnny and Ronnie would slip me in through the door behind the front desk, lol. I was then inroduced to Joe Monk. I later ended up working with Joe at Plaza Suite and doing some construction work for him... If you remember me Joe, whats up!! Joe, tell your nephew Peter I said hello. But i have some good memories of the Fun House. Crazy stuff up on the balcony, sex in the fun house cars, lol. I even got to hang in the famous DJ booth a few times. By the time I started going to the Fun House it was a legacy already for yrs. I used to see the big Fun House clown on some record store wall on Ave U for yrs before I even got to go there. Then every time I went I could not believe I was even there... It was great to be a part of it. And its still great to say I was there!

Would Someone PLEASE give a message to Jerry (Owner) / and Al, Vinny's brother in law and the brothers that bought Mon Vi Je in Howard Beach ,I can't think of there names . Anyway tell them I took a picture of all of them with The Beautiful Vicki La Motta at the Bar and would love to get them a copy. Sorry Monk you were not there that night .Do you remember I always played Mose Code of LOve /Capris
THANK YOU

I just found this by accident... I was telling my step-daughter & her husband about the Funhouse... I can't believe it... I lived there for 3 years... Me & my crew from Brooklyn would some how manage to get there rain or shine, cme hell or high water every friday & Saturday... We had the "hook-up" with Ronnie and would get in for free. We got to hang with Jellybean & the other DJs & Madonna when she was there (most Saturdays) It was Me (Robert) Ronnie (Richie-Rich) Mike (Fat Mike) and a few others. I really missed that place when it closed. I always hoped thet it would re-open, but as they say, se-la-ve...

hi ! i went to cathedral high school 76-80. some of my friends and i used to go to the funhouse. it started when i won passes from wktu (paco or rosko)...i also won a boom box strap too...lol.

anyway, i think i remember grace jones and a tiger walking down the runway.....am i correct if it was at the funhouse? (ugh...i went to "54" once in awhile and i can't remember where i saw that.

loved the funhouse dj's!!!!!!!

thanks for the site.

I used to go to the funhouse back in 1982.I lived in sheepshead bay at the time i did not know any of the buggers but i still had a good time i loved the loud music and especially jellybeans mixes i wish there was a way i could get them today

I remember seeing Planet Patrol there unbeleiveable memories

The best day of my life was going to the FUNHOUSE with friends racing to get there before 11pm so we can get in free . Friends we met there and Friends we Still are no matter what race we were all friends still to today.goingto the FUNHOUSE every friday night and saturday night was the best two days out of the week got to dance our hearts out and be with friends. music all night. changing clothes to fit the mood. upstairs down stairs in the game room in the middle or the back. on the big dance floor. even in the bathroom, in the exit walking out the door dancing all time we had so much fun there could never be a place like the FUNHOUSE memorious for the rest of our lives. even though we all grew up got married or divoce had some kids many of us are still around showing up to events parties . the music on the radio is no where the same then being at the FUNHOUSE . listen to jellybean playing that special song. first love first dance first memerious will never be forgotten

FUNHOUSE PEOPLE RULE THE PARTY LIFE ALL THE TIME. party people miss all that see you at the next party. still got my shirt red with my clown. love always punk rock Angie

WOW!!! I can't believe how many people have posted. A few years ago, I checked these websites for anything related to The Funhouse and there was really not much on the Web. I thought it was just something that I perceived as something that was just amazing in my life. I've been totally affected by my time at the Funhouse(1979-1982) so much so that until this day I primarily listen to and seek out any music related to what Jellybean played until the wee hours in the morning. I live in Naples, Florida now and would love to hear from anyone who was from The North Bronx who hung out upstairs.
Dennis D., Rob S,. Tracy, Dawny, Brian, Lynn C,. Angelo & Albert(twins), Richie Dirt, Freddie Dirt, Freddie, what's up?
