Grand Opening, GRAND CLOSING! (or vice versa)
I am sick of DC clubs. First Dream “closed” and Love “opened”. The Republic Gardens changed hands, closed, mutated, closed, reopened, popped locked & dropped & now The Republic is there. #1 I will forever refer to Love as Dream because I have only been a HANDFUL of times since it became “Love The Club Dot Com”. That is the onliest way I will refer to it as Love…
I recently heard that Avenue closed… BOO HOO! I hated that place it was cold & impersonal and COLD! BUt this isn’t about my club review. This is about the GRAND OPENING of Luxe Nightclub. The ad said it was downtown??? next to the convention center?? on New York Avenue?? HOLD UP! I googled the address & sure as you been born, it was AVENUE.
I just recieved an evite and INCESSANT previous invites to Muse Nightclub. In Chinatown??? Across from Verizon Center??? HOLD UP! I googled the address…. RNR!?!? I looooved RNR. Hassan is/was the best bartender EVER! but I heard RNR was closing for condos. Stop trying to make residential downtown DC happen! (I love Mean Girls) But yeah, it was just turned into what the FOOLS living in Penn Quarter (STOP trying to make residential downtown DC happen) were told would be a jazz lounge. Well let me tell those folks living in Penn Quarter something, judging from whom I recieved this Evite, Muse is & or WILL BE the polar opposite.
They start up these clubs with the BEST of intentions… but you know what they say about the road to hell…
Ibiza is a prime example… I went to the grand opening with DJ AM & Kim Whoredashian & the chicks hanging from the ceiling & all the hoopla & pomp & circumstance & rules & dress codes. And now what? they hold go-gos there. OH how the mighty have fallen!
There USED to be a formula for what worked. And all this fake bougie, exclusive, uppity isn’t it. I am not saying let every fire breathing dragon in with his Hennesy breathed crew! But if you don’t see that this thing is BROKE and MUST be fixed. I don’t know what to tell you. I have long since retired from the happy hour every other night & clubbing on Thursday, Friday & Saturday. But I would like to know that when I DO want to go out. I have options & those options aren’t hood, uppity, or just plain WACK!
I will be keeping an eye & ear out for Luxe & Muse (not really). I wish you the best of luck (not really).
I’m not hating, I’m just stating!
People want a regular old party, a jook junk of sorts. People are to old to dress for some other hood rats, no job having never heard of 401 ever looking dudes. Why can’t the mature just have a good time, good liquor and GOOD NIGHT!
This is a simple formula music + liquor= party.
These people have all these ideas, they so smart they stupid.
Good luck sh!tty clubs. *rolls eyes*
