An event or occasion that is cool or exciting regardless of its number of participants, usually a concert or party. Named after short-tailed manx cats: even without a large tail (in analogy, a large following), still extremely effective.
There were only a few dozen people at the club, but after 9:30, that place was the manx!

Demonym for somebody from the Isle of Man, a pretty little isle in between the much larger islands of Britain and Ireland (although it is part of Britain but not part of the UK).
The towns of Douglas, Ramsey and Peel are all in the Isle of Man. Therefore, Manx people live there.

1. Slang used to describe a type of cat that has no tail - these cats originally come from the Isle of Man and naturally either have no tail or have an incredibly short tail.
Also, manxed cats are know to be very good hunters and so used to be used as a ship's cat or by farmers to hunt mice and rates. Their very short tails (or lack of them) gets named in the following ways: rumpy, riser, stumpy, stubby and longy.
The long-haired version of the manxed cat is breed from Canada that is best known as the Cymric cat.
"That corgi dog has no tail and looks manxed"
"I'll go get a manxed cat to catch dem rats"
"Look at that kitty, it's tail is manxed"
