Mannequins Memories


Much of this past Saturday night's euphoria came from the nostalgia. The nostalgia of being on a dance floor that was jammed, that moved, that was surrounded by crowds of on-lookers. If you ever rode the revolving floor at Mannequins, you know that feeling of watching while being watched. There was also the euphoria of hearing so many Mannequins dance hits. People around me were probably tired of me yelling out "That's a Mannequins song, as I'm known to do at other clubs too!" Parts of the song above were played by both DJ Icey and I think DJ Mondo at Amphitheatre. It was a song played by DJ Peapod on Mannequins final night. Truly a Trance classic; Agnelli & Nelson's Everyday. (Also called Everytime I See Your Face) Enjoy!

    Let's not give up hope on reopening Mannequins & 8Trax.
    Along with the others for some partying,dancing, and all around nightlife.
    P.S.
    Come on Bob, it's been long enough not having any nightlife for the adults.

    I always say when i hear a certain song, this is a FOG song! (when the fog would go crazy and you couldn't see your hand in front of you) and i can always point out where the fog was!
