Club Nihil Reunion Dark Dance Party!

For a few years, including at the inception of this Meetup group, we ran an event called Club Nihil at a club called Eris Evolution in Brooklyn. It was a team up between my party, No Return Post Punk Society, and other scene promoters for a multi-room 2 floor party. In two weeks, August 21st, it will be the first time in years that we'll all be back together again, this time at Producer's Club in Times Square! We hope you can make it, it'll be a great throwback to the Eris days, but even if that was before your time it'll be a great time with great music and a lot of opportunities to meet like-minded people! Friday August 21st Club Nihil Reunion Party at The Producers Club 10:30 pm to 4:00 am $10 with flyer/$15 at the door Presented by The No Return Post Punk Society, Graveyard NYC and Slad3ist Hosted by The NeverMindSociety Music by DJs Grave, Swabby, Zefix, Negrarose, Ryan Walker, The Maldic!on and Robo Theater Slad3ist Presents SANCTUM Performers - GoGos -Vendors ###
