- Luna_Lounge abstract "Luna Lounge was a bar at 171 Ludlow Street, on the west side of Ludlow Street on Manhattan's Lower East Side. It opened in 1995, and was a popular venue for local bands and stand-up comics (the rock band Interpol played there early on and last returned in 2003 to perform a secret show under the name "Cuddleworthy"). A much-loved foosball table was located by the entrance; a game cost $1.00 in quarters. Luna Lounge is notable as the place where Elliott Smith wrote the songs for his first major label release, XO.The performance room hosted two to four bands six nights a week, with the "Eating It" alternative stand-up comedy show filling the room on Mondays. Eating It featured a changing line-up of comedians including Sarah Silverman, Janeane Garofalo, Louis C.K., Jim Norton, Ted Alexandro, Todd Barry, H. Jon Benjamin, Greg Giraldo, Marc Maron, Patrice O'Neal, Kathy Griffin, Dennis Miller, Patton Oswalt, Sarah Vowell, Mike Birbiglia, Dave Chappelle, Roseanne Barr, and dozens of others. The weekly event was initially devised by Garofalo and Maron, who later helped create the radio network Air America Radio. The $8 admission fee included a drink. Footage of the bar can be seen in the 1997 independent comedy movie Who's the Caboose? starring Sarah Silverman. Luna Lounge was forced to close when its landlord sold the small building to a buyer who planned to demolish it and build a larger development site. The bar closed its doors for the last time at its original location on the morning of June 12, 2005 and the building was torn down on July 26 and 27 of that year. Music at Luna Lounge was always free. When the club closed, it was the last spot on the Lower East Side to feature nightly rock shows with no cover. Some other bands which played the venue early in their careers include The Strokes, Longwave, Ambulance LTD, Nada Surf, Ratatat, The National, and stellastarr*. Luna Lounge reopened on January 22, 2007, in a new Williamsburg, Brooklyn space. Among the artists to play the reopened location were The Meat Puppets, Steve Forbert, The Knitters, The Pipettes, Cash Registers, Longwave, Rob Dickinson, The Black Angels, Melvins, Bell Hollow and Kate Nash. Luna Lounge sold their Williamsburg lease in April, 2008, to the Knitting Factory.Luna Lounge creator and co-owner Rob Sacher later wrote an autobiography, Wake Me When It's Over, which mainly focused on Luna Lounge and its historic and cultural significance within the music scene in New York. The book was published by Selena Press on March, 1, 2012.".
