Drove from Chicago in hopes that the scene in NYC would be cool. Well I thought it sucked.
Friday - Crobar.
Damn more or less a low class crowd. Why the do they even have 18+ nights? That pretty much sucked also. Waiting for Sasha. He came on for an hour, big whoop. James Lavelle sucked. I left at 5. Sasha came back on after I left but it wouldn't have mattered. I doubt he cared about this night. Just seemed to be playing some filler . I was hoping to hear a great set like he did at wmc. What a ing joke.
Saturday - Pacha
Expecting a mega club. Not quite, this place is pretty small. Hell its more or less the same deal as sound bar in Chicago. Perhaps slightly bigger but not all that much and 15 bucks for a drink. Steve Angello wasn't bad wasn't great. The crowd is NYC dances just as bad as the crowd in Chicago. Where are the fashion models? Saw a lot of fat average chicks in Pacha just like Chicago.
Will not repeat. |

Appreciate your comments lol but I have to say, you picked the wrong events to come to lol. I admit, the NYC has its on's and off's, fact of the matter is it's basically always ON in NYC, some nights better than others you just have to take that into consideration since this city is so large. If you truely wanted fashion models you could have choosen other venues who cater to red rope attire, but you won't get your edm of choice. I think part of your bad experience was that you came to NYC with high expectations, hell I would too, it's NYC. You can get what you want, you just need to know where to look for it.
Moreover, the 18+ thing around this time of year (May-July) caters to the prom/afterprom crowd. It's obvious, school lets out these days and clubs make almost triple when they open their doors to afterproms. It gives the club a good reputation to those kids who don't know what the club life is about (eventually will hook'em).
Overall, sorry to hear you had a bad time again, maybe try another event like Summer Stage for PVD in Central Park or Armin @ Tobacco Warehouse, both outdoor events in NYC. With such a diverse crowd you have to expect that not everyone will be pleased, but I'm sure if you look, you'll find what you want. |

you sound like a COMPLETE retard here.
megaclub = GIGANTIC SPACE? no.
i hate to disappoint you but if you ever go overseas, you'll see that that their "megaclubs" aren't that big either (save a couple of clubs on ibiza cuz that place is made for extremes). it's a metaphorical term there, genius. :wtf: :rolleyes: |

thats probably the worst review ive heard haha hell, i heard plenty of bad reviews about Lavelle's set that night but that doesnt mean New York sucks because of that lol
you shoulda gone to Boris @ Crobar Saturday :wtf: there are some hotties there for sure, but whether or not you would catch an STD from one of them is another story... if you were lookin for beautiful women, theres a million places near Crobar you coulda gone to, Crobar's about the music, you shouldn't really go there expecting beautiful girls. |

Yeah. That's how it is with all clubs in NYC because there's no real estate in Manhattan. Everything is clustered so they have to make the places small.
By contrast, Washington DC has really big mega-clubs: Fur and Love/Dream.
Like you, I was also disappointed in NYC nightlife, because on any given night you can't just go clubbing, you have to know where to go. Club life in NYC is amazing if you have the right connections. Not so for your average visitor. |

yeah NYC really does not have the LARGE spaces that it once had back in the day -- all that was shut down by New York Finest :rolleyes: ...but then again edm parties were NEVER about pretension and image...it was about enjoying the music and feeding off the vibe of everyone around you. but anyway...if ur lookin' for the high rollers and bottle crowd...not sure a regular trance/house party is the place to go. on the contrary, i heard from my friends that FRIDAY was a really kickass partay. Makes me sad I missed out :(
on this board, its all about the music son :cool: |

no but going to a place like Crobar or Pacha, he shouldnt have made that his main objective.... picking up beautiful women is a lot easier at the clubs around and next to Crobar.... not to mention, the average TRUE house or trance music LOVER is not there to be picked up :) |
