Last night Joe Stanich ran a Danceteria re-union at the Rumpus Room in the Lower East Side. The underground nightclub lasted from 1979 until its closure in 1986.
Twenty-nine years ago.
The old school show up in numbers.
We posed.
We connected.
We got profane.
But mostly we spoke about Anita Sarko passing from this world.
Her demise took us all by surprise.
I had seen her only last month. We didn’t speak, but exchanged a smile between two comrades of the night.
We still are a legion.
And then there was John Argento.
