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