Madonna performs at Danceteria Nightclub 1983
I accidentally stumbled across this clip of Madonna making a very early (1983) appearance at the fabled Danceteria nightclub in New York. It’s a wonder more people haven’t looked at this clip—just 4k as I write this. Must be one of the earliest Madonna performances out there (according to Wikipedia it was her first, but I’m not sure I believe that). She used to work at Danceteria in the coat check. This is from a weekly talent show/cabaret night there that was called “No Entiendes” hosted by Howie Montaug.
Boy am I getting old.
