Celebrity Guests at Tenjune, Marquee, Small Lounges to Check Out & the Hottest Club Right Now

So last night (Tuesday), Sean Kingston was supposed to be performing at Tenjune. So don’t lose faith in Tenjune just because of the owner’s new club project Simyone. Tenjune still has some energy left in it. Marquee was having a much bigger celebrity. I wanted to tell people early on who it was, but the managers [...]

The Gates

Even though the big spender’s economy of years past has dwindled into nothingness and it’s currently Hampton’s season, meaning anyone who is spending isn’t in the city, new clubs/lounges keep opening up in Manhattan this month. It’s bizarre. Anyway. I stumbled into one these just born lounges, Danny Kane and Rod Surut’s The Gates, formerly The Baltimore [...]

Conversations at the Empire Rooftop

On one of my latest city romps, I found myself at the Empire Hotel Rooftop, a venue I’d never visited before since it’s above 20th street (try, 60th) and let me tell you – despite the extended taxi/subway ride, I’d been missing out.

In an operation that involved tenting off their lobby bar with heavy velvet curtains and installing a doorman and DJ, the Plaza now hosts its own mini lounge, [...]

Gold Is On The Rise

I thoroughly enjoy admitting when I’m wrong. Maybe because it happens so often. Everyone ready to time travel? Good. Let’s go way back to October of last year, when I had this to say about the swanky, closet-size, SoHo lounge Goldbar: In broad terms, Goldbar pisses me off. The door’s extremely tight and the [...]

Sway and a Sensational Parody

This weekend at the urge of many friends I decided to check out Sway, a long-established lounge on Spring street between Greenwich and Hudson in an effort to extend my nightlife knowledge beyond hardcore clubs. My consensus: Sway is definitely a breath of fresh air if you’re usually frequenting places like Pacha and Pink Elephant. [...]

Sir Douche A Lot, A Brave Man

Look at this ass right here, he looks totally douche-tastic, you can take your suit off now asshole and come buy me a drink I have this small problem. I have a tattoo, one I got a long time ago, in fact I don’t even remember when I got it, probably amidst some drunken night back [...]
