- Tish Gervais was quite the deal in New York in 1986. Nelson Sullivan captured this appearance at Danceteria, and you can see for yourself how much respect Tish had. Video by Nelson Sullivan
Feels like I’m watching a movie. But these were real people in the 80’s. I used to always think that in the movies they were over exaggerating the 80’s but no they were actually like this😂😂
Ahhhh the 80s...It's funny how people seem more real back then. No filler, natural hair, no phones, interacting like regular people. I feel so nostalgic when I watch Nelson's videos ❤
More like drama drama drama queens. Regular people worked at farms, hairdressers, bakeries….
Those are wigs pls
@@Lolli_gone_wrongOr if someone had their own hair, it was waved with perm chemicals, teased and doused with hairspray or styling gel.
Beautiful :) The 80's had such a unique spirit about it and Nelson's videos prove that. God I want to be there so bad.
Me too
Yes, it felt like anything could happen. We weren't fully surveilled and there werent too many rules
We can be there
I would give anything to go back and stay forever.
@@annother3350 it's called drugs. Lots and lots of drugs. You're also only seeing a fraction. There's actually more opportunities today, but most people are to dumb to take advantage.
My time machine works
The 80s decade was truly remarkable from fashion to politics to music.
It clearly was the 2nd best decade..50's
What the hell are u talking about? what was so great about 80s politics?
90s and 70s were better
BUTT UGLY fashion 😂😂😂 Didn’t wear it back than, never wore it when they tried to bring it back.
what a time to be alive.I love 80s.
Any footage from Danceteria is SUCH a GEM to see!!!!!!!!!
WE LOVE YOU NELSON! I think of you often like you’re an old friend ....
what a time to be alive, one of my favourite channels for sure :)
This video is so out of this world. The dialogues feel like they're part of a movie or something. They're so... ... ... Hollywood-like.
I agree. This could easily be an 80s documentary.
yay more Tish and more 1986! two of my faves
I was born in 86
I was born in 1986 I wished that I could see everyday life in 86 wish's have come true kindness love Nelson Sullivan
Me too. I only vaguely remember 89 because of ninja turtles but that's all I remember from the last bit of 80s.
i was there at that time and wished I was in the 60's lol...
I love seeing this. It makes me happy for some reason
Why do I want to cry? It's so bizzare my God
I'm with you. It's because the 80s made you feel happy. It still does.
bc of a yearning to belong.. to make meaning from the meaningless. Nothing's changed in that way.. go find your tribe
6:44 this is the New York City i know from my dreams (or fantasies)

1980s for ever!!!💪🏼💪🏼
I’ve watched so many of these videos, I recognize everyone voice lol
Wow this a time capsule
If we ever built a time machine, I would go back and relive every moment of the 80s
How fabulous! I was 5 when this was recorded but went on to own the same fringed dress. Sultry! ❤
Never heard of her but what a great band. Thanks for uploading!
Tish Gervais actually wasn't a band. If I'm not mistaken I think Tish's real name is Brian Bellovich and left Tish in the past. What a shame, right? 😉
Thats because thats a dude.
@@SofiaisSunshine shut up? tish was authentically herself back then and Brian is authentically himself now. Don't be a transphobic hoe
OMG 3 days before my 13th birthday!!!!! I was born in NYC and grew up in Queens and Long Island. Madonna got her start at this club
“My Boyfriend’s Back is after the Sonny & Cher medley.” My fave line of the whole thing b/c thats still a classic line up of acts 😂
I could have lived not seeing Michael M… Besides that great video Nelson!!
The best time of my life was the 80s
Mine too
Its good seeing all the random tidbits and historic anchors in the comments. I was born in 95 and footage like this is priceless to our knowledge of human history. To think that for every 10 years for the last 100,000 years theres been unique people and cultural pockets. No movie will ever capture the beauty of human life in motion.
The 80s were absolutely the best!!
Surprised he has no footage of Madonna during her early years. These videos are such gems
rhymeandreasoning it would be worth sooo much money..
Madonna was already huge by over 3 years at this point though.
I was wondering if he had ever seen her / knew of her during her Danceteria days - before she got her record deal, or even during her first album era.
rhymeandreasoning Madonna's a total bitch now she'd probably file an injunction to stop their release
Black Coat shame if she was bitchy. I loved listening to madonna in the 80s at the roller discos.
Must have been so much fun!
I love watching stuff like this from the year I was born and seeing what was going on that year! 💚💚💚
2 yrs , 5 months, 3 days before I was born
God this is beautiful
Freaking wild!!!,So damn Cool..
this is so amazing
Bro was really living a real life movie
They were pretty courageous going such a dangerous club like the Danceteria. That place was closed down in the early 90s because of so many assaults and fights that always broke out there.
that was the fun part of nyc in that era. the possibility of a little danger around the corner made it exciting.its so sanitary and boring now
danceteria was not dangerous
Danceteria wasn't dangerous at all in the 80s.
I use to go all the time, it wasn't dangerous at all.
@@SunnyCarnivore Some people will say the city wasn't so dangerous so its a matter of perspective but that club had a lot of fights and someone died.
It's like youre there! After a bonghit or two❤.
Very few leave their mark on this world.🎉
Amazing! Brian rocked it!
Musto was everywhere!
Baeldona IO Michael mustos still all over the village
" Musto is everywhere "
I literally thought that, looked down and saw your comment. Lol. And I think he had a 9 / 5 too.
As an entertainment writer he kind of had to be where the story was.
Brian Belovitch, who was Tish Gervais has a book coming out on Amazon and I'm looking forward to reading it. It's called "Trans Figured."
And IS Brian Belovitch now.....you do know he trans'd BACK, don't you? He is the darling of the Christian right and pray the gay away crowd
Oh wow, I only read that he detransitioned in the 90s, and has been happily married since 2013.
Not a single dislike, as it should be.
This was beautiful. ^_^
Not sure why everyone has to comment on how young they were or that they weren't even born yet. Who cares?
Generations are perpetual clones who ignore each others.
I have a hard time imagine Julius Ceasar but I could see him today, dressing stylish as a northern Italian guy.
We tend to make people from the past bigger than what they should but we are just a copy carbon from the past.
If you don't care then why did you comment instead of ignoring it like someone who actually didn't care would have done?
It seems like life and people were better without smartphones. Of course i wouldnt be watching this without a phone.
But maybe id be out there living more life.
I love this channel and Nelson ❤️🙏
So beautiful
Incredible
That song always reminds me of sister act
"This town, is coming like a ghost town
All the clubs have been closed down
This town, is coming like a ghost town
Bands won't play no more
Too much fighting on the dance floor
Do you remember the good old days before the ghost town?
We danced and sang, and the music played in a de boomtown
This town, is coming like a ghost town
Why must the youth fight against themselves?
This town, is coming like a ghost town
Government leaving the youth on the shelf
This town, is coming like a ghost town
No job to be found in this country
Can't go on no more
The people getting angry
This town's becoming like a ghost town
This town's becoming like a ghost town
This town's becoming like a ghost town
This town's becoming like a ghost town..."
This is refreshing and it’s such a nice thing to see is surviving online for me so show very soon to a very gay man named neal I know 😂 such a wonderful life you’ve lived Nelson. Thanks for sharing

Tish is very pretty and awesome.
Tish is Brian again.
What I love about this- not a person im sight on their cell phone in site
very cool....
"I'm a Harley-Queen.." --😂 I luv that💗
Life is such a weird thing... I started questioning realy heavily lately
Omg,Phil was wearing that same outfit that the Clown Musto was wearing at McDonald's the week before, wow...lending and borrowing clothes was very common back than between friends and Lovers.
I love this time in LIFE
Bing watching= Joy
They wanted their rock back to its basics.
Just 5yrs away...It would be.
Alternative Music Revolution !
(1991-95]
Then after that those horrid boy bands and Britney took over. 😑
@@QuelquefoisFois Yeah and Corny/TERRIBLE "Hip-Hop & Rap...
Like Eminem, Ja Rule, Nelly, Drake..ect
I was born 5 days later 🙌🏽
That was one month exactly after I was born 😂
I was 6. Now 43. Time flies!
New video wow
I hear the guy still trying to open that beer bottle
I wish to be born in 70s not in 89 😢😢
Amazing shit
Who's putting out all these old classic vids now? Is it Nelson's lover? Love the flashbacks. Club kids still remember
Robert Montoya now that Dick has passed ( 10/2018 ). They collection of videos was donated to a library. That's all I know. I dont know the name of the library.
M Perkins. RIP Dick. He guarded and worked on the project his whole life and how he must have loved Nelson.
So how many hours of his footage do you have? Also, are all these UA-cam videos just uploads of videos that Nelson had already edited?
Tish detransitioned and now lives as a man
When mdma was MDMA !
I thought this was the video that Musto took the stage and sang "Rubber Band Man?"
That Michael Musto guy is really a wimp. He failed at locking his bike up and can not open a f....g beer bottle with a door. 😄
At 7:27 is that vincent d'onofrio??
Hahah the cool jerk
they looked so much better behaved than their English brothers, from blitz club
5:12 Boy George the one and only LOL!
I can't stand Michael Musto.
are you a live nelson?
marcelo menoni He died in 1989 from a heart attack
thank, i know now! last night I watched a few videos among them the last one he recorded incredible channel. it's like a time machine, sometimes they wonder why the aliens or travelers in time would bother to see a civilization less technologically developed, I think this channel is the answer to that
Don Juan Mattus - he lives thru these and all of us that love him.
Dick Richardson was putting them up. Check out the mrrichardson channel for countless hours more fun
Its so weird seeing like a real full on vlog in like a gay club. Who evens think of vlogging at the time

For myself, I think it's awful that RuPaul takes credit for being the A#1 drag queen. She/he has only one thing on his mind...$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Sad. But true. Love these videos Nelson!!! ❤️❌❌❌⭕️❤️
Rupaul was one of nelsons best friends. He's a good guy and has worked hard to get to the top
@@annother3350 WRONG.....Dick Richards was Nelson's best friend, or A friend anyway who for some reason took up the cause of RuPaul and talked Nelson into giving him a place to stay....and like he did EVERYONE he knew, he took advantage of the situation.....even staying in Nelson's house after he died and Nelson's brother Mark had to have him and LaHoma evicted to get Nelson's belongings out.....there would be no videos if Mark and Dick Richards had not preserved them and after Ru Paul got in good with Fenton Bailey he dropped Dick Richards like a bad habit.......Don't be fooled....the story that you have been fed is total bullshit made up for the drag race show.
@@mrmikeyd2 I dont really watch drag race -- my main experience of rupaul is from these old videos and he seems like an OK guy that gets on with Nelson and the others. Ive always liked him in interviews too
Are you kidding? Rupaul IS the GOAT of drag.
@@mrmikeyd2 Those "characters" stole all of Nelsons belongings and did not properly care for "Blackout"- Nelsons dog.. He died only months after Nelson..
That woman’s shoulders are so broad you could play football on her back!!
It’s a man, baby
@@sayNotoBrooklyn83 Ohh hmm lol!! Are you really serious? or trying to get one in on me?? Omg, I'm so embarrassed ...Thinking that was a woman if its really not..I watch a lot of Nelson's videos ..My first one seeing her/him so I didn't know..Oops..I did always think Albert was a very hairy woman as well..Lord, please tell me he is really a man I'm going to shiz my pants you say that's a woman hahahahaha.
Oh yeah, most of just moved from caveman cave wall painting to spray painting walls in 80's, it's called evolution people... people back then were still in touch with their inner neanderthal...lol...,,😄😄😄😄😄
Michael Musto, ugh. Insufferable.
It is funny, reading through these comments, most have no idea who Tish Gervais really is....the first male to female transgender who switched back (however the hell that was done, just sew one back on?) anyway, then claimed he was never gay and hated all things gay related.......a darling of Christian conservatives
He is gay, and he only had top surgery, so he had his implants removed.
It’s called self hate.
@@Lisa-ps2rv probably still actually trans. Again, it’s self hate.
@@kelseakelsea5131 why are you talking about someone like you know them you weirdo
Tish detransition back to being a boy. he is brian and living his best life ever. Said he was never truly happy as Tish.
I see aids everywhere
Ahh . depravity
This is alll *creativity* hun 💯✨😁
I genuinely feel sorry for people like you. like you live your life so SMALL minded, you're meant to be on this earth to expand your mind but look at you, ignorant, homophbic, and mentally ill
