    All these videos take me back to my early 20s in The Village (1986 -1994). My haunts were The Ninth Circle Steakhouse, Limelight, Tunnel, Club USA. R.I.P. Nelson, thanks for the memories!

    A great thank you to Nelson Sullivan wherever he is, for these beautiful videos shot in the 80s, precious documents of life, of that beautiful period, where there was not much technology but there was much more love, friendship and simplicity

    Thank you for preserving this magical era. I had just turned 21 a couple weeks before this party. I was living in Los Angeles…. And learning who I was.
    I wish I had come out in NYC.

      These would be SOME big differences: You didn't have to drive everywhere in NY . LOTS of public transportation. No celebrity sightings -- ever . Things were a bit cheaper here . No "heavy metal scene" here - more "punk / new wave". More condensed - people wise. It was EASIER to bar hop / club hop . Brooklyn and Queens were affordable to live. You could make ends meet by just having a "normal boring office job".

    I can’t thank you enough for continuing to upload these videos 59AP. I loved Nelson, and Albert was one of my all-time favorite people, he’s always so happy and puts off a great vibe. These are treasures and I for one am so grateful to be able to see them! RIEP Nelson, if you only knew how much you are loved by people you don’t even know, even your relatives here. 😉

      Albert used to be my fav as well... until it seemed like he used Nelson. When him and Liz showed up to dye there hair at his place while Nelson was sick... didn't bother asking if he felt ok. Then when Christina died Albert and musto were morbid and mean talking about her Nelson clearly felt bad...then Nelson changed the subject saying he was taking Albert to atlanta to go shopping. Albert said "im not going to bother taking any money" basically like Nelson is supposed to pay for everything. Idk the more clips I watch the more it seems Albert used Nelson because he was so nice and giving. I really use to like Albert tho he was quite the character he made me laugh. His true colors showed the more you watch he's a me me me type person. Just my opinion though...

      Yes he is still friends with LadyBunny and Lahoma. Larry Tee co-wrote Ru's "Supermodel of the world" song and Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato (aka the Pop Tarts back then) now produce Ru's "Drag Race." I think these queens grew up fast and built serious loyalty to one another and stayed friends because they went through so much in the 80's seeing all their friends get aids and they are the ones who survived. These films are the closest thing we have to a time machine and are such a treasure :)

      I loved all my friends in the 80’s.. we were inseparable and like family. Sadly, most died young of AIDS or drug and alcohol abuse. None of them (of around 10 friends) are alive now. Last one was my friend Billy who survived AIDS for 35 years but ended up dying of lung cancer.
      And I haven’t aged much, they say. Go figure, I never touched alcohol or cigarettes or drugs. Never.

    For people saying "the party is boring" is not understanding that there are groups of people on different types of drugs in those groups of people being filmed at this party, which definitely contributes to that vibe.

      This party is not boring. Reminds me of being drunk n' high at a party in the 1980s and just moving from one conversation to the next - nice mix of people , friends of friends, Gay / straight , artists / writers --maybe some weird-o strangers to make fun of later when everyone leaves.
