Der Club "Loft", Nollendorfplatz 5, Berlin-Schöneberg gehörte zu den 1983 bis 1998 zu den wichtigsten Veranstaltungsorten für neue und bahnbrechende Musik in West-Berlin/Berlin. Diesen Ruf verdankt das Loft in großen Teilen Monika Döring, die von 1983 bis 1987 die Leitung des Clubs innehatte. Namen wie Jesus Jones, Primal Scream, The Lounge Lizards, Violent Femmes, The Fall, Anne Clark, Adamski, Die Toten Hosen, Einstürzende Neubauten, und viele mehr traten während der Zeit des Lofts am Nollendorfplatz auf, und machte diese Gegend West-Berlins zum weltweiten Hotspot der Rock-, Pop-, Punk-, Post-Punk- New-Wave-, und Independent-Musik.
Eine sehr schöne Sammlung von s/w Fotos von der bekannten Photographin Petra Gall aus dieser Zeit findet man on-line bei nat.museum-digital.de. Petra Galls künstlerischer Nachlass wird seit 2012 von Berlins Schwules Museum verwaltet.
