RAIDING COPS SHUT 7 CLUBS

By JOE McGURK

April 1, 2006 -- Seven trendy nightclubs were raided last night following a nine-month undercover drug probe, police said yesterday.

Police hit the clubs at 10 p.m., just as they were starting their Friday night parties.

Five Chelsea clubs were completely shut down:

* Club Deep, where undercover cops allegedly purchased marijuana, cocaine and ecstasy.

* View, where undercovers said they bought cocaine and ecstasy.

* Splash, where undercovers allegedly bought $2,700 worth of cocaine.

* Spirit, where cops said they witnessed assaults, including a stabbing; alcohol being served to minors, as well as drug use and sales.

* Avalon, where cops reported buying ecstasy.

One dazed and confused clubber at Avalon said musician Teddy Compton was in the middle of his opening act.

"Half way through the set, the volume just plummeted," said the woman, who asked that her name not be printed. "The NYPD just swarmed in. It was a hell of a lot of cops. The club was just shut down, nobody would tell us why."

Clubs Speed, on West 39th Street, and Steel Gym, on East 23rd Street, were issued "restraining orders," meaning they can stay open if they stop illegal activity.

At Speed, cops allegedly were offered sex for money, and spotted drug use.

In Steel Gym, undercovers reported buying the drug crystal meth.

"We visited most of these clubs in the past," said a police source. "It's not the first time we've seen this kind of activity."

a couple times that i've been at spundae, i've noticed this one narc-looking guy. one time he tried talking to me and the convo went like this...

narc: sup bro? (trying to dance)

me: hey man

narc: what are you on?

me: nothing man, i just got here

narc: so what are you gonna take?

me: uh, i'm just drinking tonite

narc: i thought you were on drugs

me: naw man, i don't do drugs

narc: well do you know where i can score some? i wanna try some ecstacy

me: :nervous: no not rly

anyways, i think there are a bunch of undercover cops at clubs here in LA, we just never notice them. if you're gonna use drugs, just don't be stupid about it.

ps- i was stoned as when i was talking to that narc:tongue3

haha ya, i'm pretty sure it was a narc cus i've seen him at spundae on 2 or 3 different occasions and he never seemed to be really into the music and he was always alone...and i could tell he was TRYING to dance like to fit in or something. clubs (especially edm) and drugs go hand in hand and the cops know that. i wouldn't be surprised if they check out these message boards as well. if you're gonna do drugs in a club, don't be stupid about it. don't buy from people you don't know and don't do it in the open. one of the bartenders @ spundae told me that they have tons of cameras set up in there except in the bathroom
