Red: too small; has good music from what I hear does have good music, at least on thurs and sun's, but yeah, very small Platinum: heard it's not as good as it used to be (don't really know); sometimes plays cheese i.e. Z104 crap; 18 + i've heard the same, i believe it's only 18+ on thurs, 21+ the rest of the time but i could be wrong The Spot: don't know much about it; Louie DeVito NYC Underground CD Release Party that night; co-worker told me it's "a club for the brothers" (don't know what he meant by that) mmm, it's a big space lots of different floors, one floor for house, but that floor is not big enough, i felt claustrophobic. your co-worker was prolly referring to the mass of people who are there primarily for the hiphop music Club Heaven: went a year ago and was good; don't know how popular it is now; don't know what music is played crowd stinks, sat's are not bad, but it's sketchy Andalu/Sesto Senso: plays house?; small; don't know about what type/number people go there not sure, heard it's small and an international crowd Lulu's: Went on a Friday awhile ago and the DJ sucked; don't know if it has changed though no no no no - you don't want to go there Zei Club: plays techno; don't know about what type/number people go there ew, i wouldn't recommend, packed, full of thugs considering all your comments, there aren't really any great options i can think of. i guess the closest would be platinum - big space, house music, less of a thug crowd than some of the others. this is like choosing the lesser b/t 2 evils.... hope this helps
