Some of the best memories on the bleachers.. rolling, massages, and listening to legends spin you into another fucking dimension. To this day I've yet to find a place that transforms into a fucking space ship like this place did... Clubbing just isn't the same any more.. at least in Fl it isn't.. sux!! Thanks for this rare footage!!
This is great rare footage of the experience at Twilo. I spent a great deal of time there, probably twice a week, once on Friday or Saturday and again for Jungle Nation, which if I remember was the Monday night party running for years. I saw everyone from Rabbit & The Moon to Jumpin Jack Frost. Having been to nearly every venue of this time, this was the place to be from 1996-1998. You had the locals from Temple and Satellite too..Thanks for the video. Good times.
I also would like to add that being Party People since 88 that Twilo was the greatest club I have ever been to. I have seen Sasha & Digweed like 6 times there and Junior Vasquez close to 30 times between 99 and 2000. AMAZING times!
This video brings back so many great memories. The bad thing about this video is how it couldn't capture the sound in that magical club. It was loud but so perfectly clear. The greatest sound system ever. Wish this video was longer and I could go back. I'm in that crowd somewhere. I never missed a nite when Lawler was there. Even the last nite when the doors were shut for good. RIP TWILO - LIKE NO OTHER PLACE ON EARTH!!!!
Yeah quality of life and stupid Rudy Guiliani shut it down. They were denied a cabaret license. The First time I went there all I saw was everyone with their shirts off!!!!!!!! OMG WHY DID THEY CLOSE THIS PLACE..........
First time I went to Twilo was January 1998 Sasha and Digweed. Then I went again for my sevententh birthday in April. My brother and sister were already goin to Twilo for years, but I was too young. After that I was hooked. Sasha and Digweed, Paul van dyk, Carl Cox, Deep Dish, Dave Seaman, Danny Tenaglia, Dave Clarke, and so many more would play Twilo. With out a doubt one of the best clubs that have ever existed. The 90s club scence rocked. Those days will never come back
I started getting serious about House music when I was 18 yrs old at the time i first went into a club and my first club was Club Hollywood In NewRochelle,NY when dj serge was djing their. and than I started to club at Arena down the street before they changed it from Palladium..even thought Palladium is in NYC or was I dunno. but I don't think many people knew that Palladium was in fact a second club In Newrochelle,NY
funny to say that this club n then seeing jonathan peters to was what got me started in djing rip twilo place was insane i remebr opening set i did for cox in 99 sick night ile never for get it
Twilo was the club...My first time there was at 15, when it was all black, S&M with Trannys dancing on Speakers. LOL Talk about being exposed as a kid to the night scene.
Best times, best vibe, best e experiences....New York club scene wont ever compare.
Carbon was another great place. Loved the Cages and all the shows.
@JackSnipes I saw em 4th of July weekend in 00 a day after they played at the Union Square Virgin Megastore, both to promote "Communicate," which was not as good as the NE albums (but still I had a great time) I took a couple friends and it was nuts, we waited 3 hours to get in b/c the line went around the block twice. Was my 1st Twilo visit and alot of fun, better than the overpriced S&D set I saw a year later at Cipriani over Turkey Day.
Twilo was my club... I was there before the phazon sound system when it was called tiki twilo... and i was there when they closed it. I have many good memories of the place, and i met my wife there eight years ago and now we have a kid. I can tell countless stories about the place from its start to its end. R.I.P. twilo
can you give us some stories then? never been to Twilo, I was raised overseas, but well written club story could make my day ;) Maybe not on yt but some forum and leave link here?
From Charlotte, NC but everytime I headed up to NYC to I was HERE! Bad thing was my brother who GREW UP IN NEW YORK didn't party like me! What a waste!
I MISSSS TWILO!!! It was like getting f-ed up my own living room.... it was my 2nd home. I remeber being in the lounge oon the benches at the bottom of the stairs and when a great song came on... like cattle we would all rush to the dancefloor!!! ahahhha miss thos days!!!!
Best ever club i been to ever - Thailand / Ibiza - nothin had a look in to this place on a Fri night with Cox/Sasha/Mills/Vath/Hawtin at the helm evry other week!!!! 99' - 00' RIP Twilo.....DJ
i remember DT vs C0X preseidents day....they stopped playing at 430 pm sunday....they started like 11 pm saturday. Best was PVD 2nd year anniversary rocking till 10am
Not sure if I posted this before but was this filmed friday, may 4th 2001? That'd be the last night before they shut it for good. If that's the date, I was there and it was the first and maybe only time I saw Steve live (not sure if I saw him again). This night made me a lawler fan and prompted me to get a few of his albums. If I'm wrong, please correct me.
Twilo will always be the best club even after it closed in 01 - so many memories come to light as I think of all the nights I spent there dancing my ass off - RIP Twilo
Twilo was the best club I ever went to, set up standards, 97 oh yeah those days so memorable in NYC. I was 21 years old, just allowed to go to clubs in the USA!!!
Twilo was by far, the most awesome nightclub I've ever been to in my entire life. I will remember the nights I saw Carl Cox and Steve Stoll Live there with great fondness.
Theres really nothing like it that took its place. If there is, please tell me where I can see Carl Cox, DJ Hype, and Steve Stoll in the NY area... Really... I'd love to have a night out like those again.
The only thing that sucked about this club was the fact that you couldn't trainspot and they overpacked it on the night that Jeff Mills was there. At any moment Fire Marchal Bill could have shut that place down....
Nothing was better than the last friday of the month -- I remember seeing Sasha there in the first DJ Booth all the way up in the air -- there was probably only 800 people there -- then the secret was out and the floodgates opened to madness every month. WOW -- I used to be wasted in there.
i miss twilo too. i wish i was there this night. so many nights i could've been there but was in an other crappy club. i'm happy that i at least got to go to twilo tho. really nice place. it sucks that i don't remember much. lol
omg....i remember sneaking into Twilo when I was 17..back in '97'.. I ended up dancing on the speaker left of the DJ booth...(over looking the crowd) all night! one of the best nights ever!
Yeah, I partied @ Twilo during its final three years and had some epic nights there, which always ended stumbling out onto W27th the next morning in a daze wondering what hit me. :)
Wow, this is the first live footage I've seen of Twilo. The management there were such pricks; there are hardly any photos of the old place, let alone video. Have any more clips?

The closest I came to Twilo was in the Twilo arena at Gatecrasher@ NEC in Birmingham, England - where I saw Carl Cox for the first time. Epic night.
I would've done anything to see Danny Tenaglia and Sasha & Digweed play at Twilo NYC. Shame.
