VENUE: KEYCLUB

LOCATION: WEST SECTION OF SUNSET STRIP

NIGHT YOU ATTENDED: THURS (PRIVATE PARTY)

PROMOTION: YES

Decore: 8+. Very "club" like decore, a bit dated now, sort of 1990s feel, but it still works here. Just, please, dont aim the lights into people's eyes near the dance floor. Doesnt work

People: Crowded (private party lol)

Parking: 10! Very easy! $5 lots.

Cover: None

Best Thing: Good floor plan. Lots of railings

Worse Thing: Nothing that bad. Floor is a little slippery. Music a bit too lowd, lighting too dark.

What would you Change: The people. Granted, private party, but never saw so many people with so much attitude who had no reason to have attitude cuz they werent THAT hot. Average % of fake hair that night -- over 75% lol !

Would you go Back: Yes.

VENUE: WHITE LOTUS PARKING LOT

LOCATION: CAHUENGA IN HOLLYWOOD

NIGHT YOU ATTENDED: THURSDAY

PROMOTION THAT NIGHT: YES

(1-10, 10 being best)

Parking: 1

Well, no review of the venue this time. Just a review of the parking lot.

The entire neighborhood has $4-$5 lots.

White Lotus: $10 to valet, $20 for the "car upfront".

They need to charge the same as virtually all the lots in the area ($4-$5). $10 is too much.

VENUE: HIGHLANDS

LOCATION: HOLLYWOOD N HIGHLAND COMPLEX

NIGHT YOU ATTENDED: SAT

PROMOTION: YES

Decore:

Downstairs - 8. Nice, Pleasant

Back Room - 9: Very Nice. Good Flow. Lots of Couches, Pillows, Classy Bar, etc.

Upstairs (Loggia) - 10. Really v beautiful (v expensive construction and decore but oddly v v cheap landscaping/plants). People: Packed Packed Packed downstairs (overcapacity? maybe?)

Parking: 10! Very easy! 4 hours for $2 (after that about $1 per 20 minutes)

Cover: yes

Best Thing: People clearly were there to have fun.

Worse Thing: Too crowded at one point and too many people that accidentally (not intentionally) pushing, tripping, etc. on the dancefloor. Also -- the absence of just the main exit way when on the first floor makes u feel sort of clostraphobic when u are in the back room with a packed crowd.

Would you go Back: Yes Yes Yes!

The addition of caponies outside --- wonderful!

Generally, really quite surprised is was this good. Music was A+ (top 40 hip hop, power 105.9 hip hop, one area techno). People were great because clearly there to have fun ... very good cross section of people - some v good looking, no one really ugly.

If you go --- give help to the staff (which is v nice and excellent) to point out the people with drinks on the dancefloor --- drinks are not allowed on the floor and rightfully so. Enjoy.

Club AD - highly overrated, good for visitors who want to go celeb-sighting... HUGE line outside, but once you're in, hardly anyone's in... slow from 10-midnight, picks up a bit after midnight... drinks are pretty strong, music is commercial...

The Stock Exchange - NOBODY WAS IN THERE when we went... 30-40 people in the club at its heigh around 1:30am... great space, just not very popular on Saturday nights...

Still haven't checked out The Palace, I really wanna go... :(

Peace,

VENUE: RED (AT ARENA, ON FRIDAY NIGHTS)

LOCATION: SANTA MONICA BLVD & LAS PALMAS

NIGHT YOU ATTENDED: FRIDAY, APRIL 4, 2003

PROMOTION: NO

Decor: 10. i've always liked the setup and flow at arena. places to sit in all areas of the club, ways to get upstairs on both sides, and i loves me a mezzanine!

Only drawback about the setup: only one room - no choice between 2 djs.

Patio: 6. sucks. always too crowded, there's rarely an empty seat, and the 2 doorways to get out are always jammed.

People/vibe: 8. people are nice, but sometimes there are a few too many cracked-out peeps...

Parking: 10. i park right across the street, generally, but the lots right next to the club are $4 or so, i think.

Cover: $20, or $10 if you sign up on their website - www.nexxez.com before 6pm on thursday and get to the club by 10pm on friday. (10pm sharp, people! they're not kidding!)

Best thing: relaxed, laid-back atmosphere. absolutely no attitude or pretentiousness to be found, ever, and i go to red regularly.

Worst thing: sometimes the opening djs can suck - hard.

Would i go back? i would, and i do!
