I do not see why he couldn't!!!
Just think about it... After a long day.. people want to go out, After a long week people want to go out... on dates.. people want to go out..people want to go just to go well out.
He has been behind Giant for many years. That has been very successful threw out so. Cal. |

well this is one of the worst kept secrets in LA about Dave buying Ivar but he called me tonite and said its okay now to put the info out there publically...so here it is.....
Plans are to split it into 2 venues, so they can book djs/parties which are not able or appropriate for main room Sat nites at Vanguard. Kind of like a Cielo in LA is what he's aiming for. Already they have Robtronik moving his parties there and the Shapeshifters booked there soon.
Giant will continue to do Sat nites at Vanguard. And there already is the thread about Giant SD moving to the old Montage....

Nightlines: Facade sold to Giant honcho
By charlie amter
Need proof that Hollywood's club scene is still hot? Look no further than Facade -- the bar with two entrances (the Hollywood Blvd. entrance formerly known as Ivar is pictured above) connected through a back patio. Miami and New York night-life impresario Robert Vinokur has teamed up with Giant owner Dave Dean to turn the twin locales (1643 Ivar Ave. and 6356 Hollywood Blvd., the latter the home of the old Ivar) into two new clubs.
"We will be thoroughly renovating the location soon, splitting the club into two unique 300- to 500-capacity venues," says Dean, the dance-music kingpin and the man behind downtown L.A.'s New Year's Eve blowout Giant Maximus. "New names will be attached to both venues...sound and production will be a priority as Giant will be utilizing the venues for up-and-comers, cutting-edge and change-of-pace artists." Translation? Look for more buzzing underground DJs from around the world (but perhaps not the huge names like France's David Guetta that regularly play Giant's larger Saturday night parties at Vanguard) to play the yet-to-be-named bars, which Vinokur says will bow in two phases.
"Facade will continue to be open for the next four to six months, and then we start renovations on the Hollywood Boulevard side," Vinokur says. "We are cutting the club in half and will renovate the front part first." Vinokur, who has a concurrent nightclub project at the Fox Theater in Hollywood just blocks away, says to look for the first portion of new club to open this fall, with the second half opening in early 2009.

| Could be interesting...as for "underground" and cutting edge artists, I think Compression & Avalon have those on lockdown as far as clubs go. |
