A much needed mega club in NYC

by admin on July 29, 2010

Without Pacha the megaclub scene in NYC is pretty much non-existent, but it seems that Pacha may get some company a few blocks away.

New York City nightlife has been lacking in the big giant club scene, and that may soon change with a new addition from across the pond called Sankeys.
Sankeys will attempt to bring back the electronic music crowd, which left NYC years ago.

The story…as told by GOG.

The Filmore gets the Irving Plaza name back

There are many venues in NYC that no matter what the name changes to…it’s just not the same and NY’ers won’t accept it.

One such place is good old Irving Plaze, as it has seen it’s share of shows, performances, dj battles, and other parts of NYC nightlife. 

Over 3 years ago Live Nation took over the venue and called it The Filmore, but most NY’ers have never even used the new name. Now Live Nation is returning the name and reapplying the original marquee sign bearing the Irving Plaza name. Thank goodness…now if they can only bring back the Palladium…the club..not the dorm.
