The band have gone on to feature 10 singers and release three albums but for Butler the rewards are personal.

Lots of sweaty, happy faces in fine threads shook it like their lives depended on it for the late night disco-house tunes.

Now touring on The Feast of The Broken Heart, a third album released this year, the sound is dirtier, mixing rough house and techno.

It's the kind of venue you might stumble into at Glastonbury late one night and a suitably unorthodox one for Andy Butler's New York dance collective Hercules & Love Affair.

The big gay disco to come is a world away from Toronto’s Austra even if they have a song called Young And Gay.

Besides the shadow of AIDS that dampers the anything goes carnality of the era, the hipsters that wear polyester these days do it more out of sheer irony than in any attempt to succumb to the laissez faire fashion of the time.

And while the late set on a Monday probably hurt the attendance rate those who were there to experience Hercules and Love Affair were hyped to see the project's glittery New York main man Andy Butler.
