The only thing i give this clown is one record wich i still cant find till this day cause i have no memory of label or song name other than that hes no JEDI

[blacklight0304]

Corbet should of spun @ usa that was more his croud and i would give him tunnel but him and his jersey shore crew should of stayed out of limelite he wasnt a powerful dj when it came to imports at all more like leaning towards tiesto bullshit with vocals most of the time on thursdays tribal dome and till he finally killed limelites original hardcore /techno nite saturday nites dam he was booty

[mekosilvar]

I met one of the coolest girls ever there...i even found her on facebook after all these years...i loved all the different rooms they had...they even had askateboard ramp on the main dance floor....girls from europe there fuckin would cut right to the chase !

[mekosilvar]

first club ever where I thought I was not going to get in everytime I went there...if you walked up to the ropes and they didnt let you in as soon as you made eye contact.................then you were'nt getting in right away...they would have all these people outside waiting like there was something going on inside...and i would go in and the place was almost empty...ha...it was a good trick though...fuckin 26th n 12th...ahhhhhhh. . good girls n there.

[run666]

@mekosilvar  everytime i was at tunnel around 1-2am walking in it was MOBBED.. probably 5000 deep..

[BreezesofConey]

ahhh, when clubbing was still clubbing, c;lub music was still club music and NYC was still mostly NYC.

[beautyonthetvscreen]

[karenaxper29]

damn kid good old times

[OrangeCountyGirl88]

If anyone now in Los Angeles was part of this scene in NYC in the 90s, I'd love it if you sent me a message. Dying to talk to someone who has firsthand stories of Tunnel & Limelight and the era when Gatien's clubs ruled NYC nightlife...

[TheIkkap]

@OrangeCountyGirl88 I hung at The Tunnel, Webster Hall, Knitting factory and would go see Junior spin every friday at 4am at the Twilo. I knew Lord Caruso and Angel. I met Peter Gatien one night outside the tunnel. He was watching the door security guys because he had been raided the day before. He is easy to recognize because he has only one eye. He didn't talk much but was friendly. What a wild time that was. (1996, 1997 or 1998 don't remember to clearly)

[louiedesa]

@TheIkkap ...had to be earlier than that.... 92/93/94...

[TheIkkap]

@louiedesa I hung out there in the early 90's then toward the end of the 90's. In the middle of the 90's I stopped paryting for a few years. Pretty sure that the wildest times were in 96. Lots of acid and X so I am not sure.

[GOODBYE1209]

wHEN i WALKED IN THE TUNNEL THE FIRST TIME AT 21 AND THAT SMELL, LIGHTS, SMOKE ALL HIT ME AT ONCE I WAS HOOKED. done DEAL!!! I ROAMED UP AND DOWN STAIRS LIKE A LION IN HEAT. SHOUT OUT TO YIHIRA

[monkeygizz666]

tunnel rat 4 life

[jaybd107]

Visiting NYC for 2 weeks of training. Met up w/ a friend who lived there on Sat in between training weeks. Already "messed up" when he tells me, "we got to go to a club call the Tunnel". Being from a city where bars close 1a-2a, I was like, HELL YEAH! Next thing I know, we're inside and I was like HOLY SHIT! Definitely hallucinating, I got lost from my buddy almost immediately. BUT quickly made friends w/ a feline in the co-ed facility! An absolute GREAT experience! After, I slept 'til Mon morn!

[nickyoth]

always remember "The Music Is The Drug"

[davesike]

whATS NAME OF THIS TRACK/?

[hollywood9810]

this my first club i work as A DJ IN NYC

[XtremeDance10]

Wow This Brings Back Memories.. 1997 thru 2001 man why did it have to shut down.. it could've lasted.. anyway glad i experienced tunnle. most people in the new generation don't know the meaning of night life. they really need education from the real clubbers.

[droidsURlooking4]

First went there in '94. The Tunnel was the best. No attitude or bs. Everybody (boys & girls) would get high and party in the toilet. I think they even had a bar in there. Lot's of different people, great music. You could meet people there too. In NYC! The last 'club' I went to in NYC was called 'Bungalow something something' and it was fucking stupid. Pretentious rich yuppie cunts and real pricey. Shouldn't be a surprise though cause look what New York has become. Oh well. Miss ya Tunnel.

[3SP0FF]

So what are the hottest clubs in NYC now? Anything remotely close to this now a days?

[3SP0FF]

So where the hell are clubs like this no? Any in NYC?

[DanKelso]

Is anything in the space where the Tunnel used to be?

I went there a few years ago and it seemed to be vacant space.

[teardrop964]
