The Box Is Too Degenerate for Even Moby

The Box Is Too Degenerate for Even Moby

It's well known that Moby enjoys the sex and vice — he even has a stripper friend he likes to hang out with, he tells BlackBook magazine. But even he cannot abide the goings-on at the Box, despite the fact that he is friends with Simon Hammerstein, and also a partial owner.

"When they were first renting the space they were looking for investors, so they went to old friends, and I thought to myself, it was right around the corner from where I live, it’s a place to go. And after I invested in it, I don’t actually go there that often.

"I like degeneracy, but for the Box you really need to be in the right frame of mind. I’m pretty comfortable with debauchery and degeneracy, but the things that go on there don’t make sense to me … The last time I was there, there were live sex acts on stage, and I don’t want to get anyone in trouble, but just suffice to say lots of crazy things. I’ve traveled around the world, and I’ve been to a lot of degenerate places, and rarely have I seen the level of degeneracy like I’ve seen at the Box."

He must have seen the anal hamster act, is all we can think. No, really, it's all we can think about whenever we think of the Box. Shudder.
