cotoncandydream Posted December 12 Report Share Posted December 12 Ok arrived w/ Mr. Rauhofer around 10pm to a mob scene in front. Check in line was spilt in two. One for those with Tickets and one for those without but had RSVP's. After running into some notables like Mark Berkley (HX) and Bruce Tantum (Time Out) we hope on the ticketed line and start shivering in the of so summer like 20 degree weather. After about 10 minutes a security person comes over the megaphone announcing they have reached capacity and that the tickets for tonight will be comps tomorrow night. The throngs of people who looked like Ralph Lauren Jr. Execs started walking. But in these situations as a clubber you know the deal. Let them leave and get tot he guy with the head set. After the majority of people started walking away a few faces remained online. Bobby Shaw, Susan Morabito, Keoki, Hosh Gureli, Mark Katz, Satoshi Tomiie, and Baby Hec Romero.We get to the walkie talkie toting list liaison and boom we're in. Walking from the tent entrance you pass a small coat check area which I think is designated for the VIP/Hip Hop room (music changed later to house and hip hop again in that room). Walking more towards the front were the club 'Begins' we run into clubbing celebrity and OZ Actor Dean Winters, dressed impeccably in a Black Suit with thin black zip sweater underneath. Very Hot!We are not at the first lounge with GIGANTIC PVC PIPES jetting from the floor to the ceiling they almost look like enormous Bamboo shoots. They separate a walkway from the lounge and bar area to you can chill out and have a drink or just walk straight through to the main floor.From this lounge area we walked through the "WHITE NOISE" Tunnel onto the main floor. The room was jumping. Prancers, Dancers, Vixens and all other reindeer analogies you can fit into a club scenario. Acrobats hanging from the vaulted ceilings in beautiful costumes on layered fabrics. Podium dancers that were artistic, fashionable and thank god could keep the beat. Johnny Dynell in on the turntables and we hear a Star 69 Record drop. Peter is in a very good mood. We make our way to the DJ booth were we are greeted by many friendly faces. Alex Omes (Ultra Music Festival), Victor Calderone (Crobar resident), Judy Weinstein (DEF MIX), and David Waxman.Frankie Knuckles had just gotten on the decks and is making us just live for him!Other run-ins and sightings during the evening were Fisher Stevens, Dennis Leva, AJ Calloway, Jonathan Peters, Kris K. (Bullitt Bookings), Christian Malpeli (Yoshitoshi), Kevin Williams, Melvin Moore (Subliminal), DaVe Mccomb, Harvey Weinstein (Tunnel/Limelight), Allegra, Da Band, and so many others.The Drinks were strong, the company was good, the staff was cordial and the beats were fierce. This is definitely a early Christmas gift from Kenny & Cal to NYC. Congratulations Crobar we wish you many more nights of success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeswells Posted December 13 Report Share Posted December 13 the venue is beautiful, the soundsystem is sick, and the lights/nitro's have the potential to cause some serious mayhem. the staff was all very friendly, and the coatcheck was quite controlled. drinks were pretty much free all night, which was fine by me. saw lots of celebs earlier on, and bs'd with luis diaz for a bit after the night had ended.nyc has a new top dog in this club, no questions asked.

cotoncandydream Posted December 13 Author Report Share Posted December 13 I have been told the only residents that are confirmed are TIMO MAAS and VICTOR CALDERONE. Besides obviously David Waxman the music director. But who the hell knows anything is possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
