...It was a New York "night club" that was "the" hot spot for a period in
the 80's and was famous/infamous for the amount of sex, cocaine, etc., that
flowed on the premises. Popular with everyone from the likes of Andy Warhol
to Truman Capote, to "society" types, modles, etc. Pretty revolting,
basically. The U.S. IRS eventually prosecuted one or both the owners for tax
evasion. There's a movie about it staring Mike Myers.
