Morrissey & Smiths Tribute Is One Of The Best New Wave Nights
SITREP
New Wave City (NWC) is the longest-running club event in San Francisco. I've been a regular to NWC) since it's first year in 1994. Every month is a treat, and often is a special "tribute night".
In fact, this most recent past Saturday was the monthly club night for December and it was a tribute night for Morrissey & The Smiths. The energy of this crowd was kinetic and made for a great dance night!
BLACK CARD
The longevity of loyal followers has it's benefits and on the 5th anniversary of my coming to New Wave City (1999), I was presented with the rare NWC BLACK V.I.P. CARD which I've kept in my wallet for 15 years, proving the adage, "Membership Has It's Privileges" - my guest & I are treated to free entry into all NWC events.
SET-UP
New Wave City is now sited at The Cat Club (1190 Folsom Street, SF), but was once much more of a revolving-venue club, enjoying being sited different months at different places, including: the KING STREET GARAGE, the TOWNSEND, 550 BARNEVELD, BIG HEART CITY, THE CHERRY BAR, the GLASS KAT, and most recently, the DNA Lounge.
SPECIAL EVENTS
NWC always promoted special galas and incredible "80s Prom Nights". With the Cat Club, NWC still is able to maintain two (2) separate rooms of music, each specializing in a different format, and with revolving door of talented DJs.
NEW WAVE DANCING
Dancing is what we come for and a stellar dance-environment is what we are provided. You can't ask for any better, and with the Go-Go Boxes in the back room, there is always ladies & gents who enjoy being a bit - how shall we say? - a bit EXPRESSIVE & OUTGOING in their dancing on the box, in front of the mirrors, and losing themselves in the music!
THE LOWDOWN
NWC remains the best ongoing club night and truly keeps keeps the momentum of the New Wave movement going strong! read more
