Pyramid can get hairy at times. I guess there's always Danceteria,
if you don't mind the sweat... have you considered checking out the
8BC scene at all ...? not too much of a pep-a-like, but interesting
nonetheless. The pep was around when it all started. I'll miss it.

So true. Too bad a lot of places in the NYC-area can't get it ... when
I'm in the Bronx I can only get it at night ... precisely the time when
I *don't* want to listen to the radio ... zip zip zip ...
