Nick and Simon talk about Birdland the jazz club which started in New York City on December 15, 1949. The original Birdland, which was located at 1678 Broadway, just north of West 52nd Street in Manhattan, was closed in 1965 due to increased rents, but it re-opened for one night in 1979 for the 30 year anniversary. A revival began in 1986 with the opening of the second nightclub by the same name that is now located in Manhattan's Theater District. The current location is in the same building as the previous headquarters of The New York Observer.
