So look forward to an announcement about that shortly and in the meanwhile welcome back to our newsletter.

SAME PLACE, NEW NAME Prime

511 W. 28th Street, New York NY 10001, 212.268.5105 http://primenightclub.com

First it was Quo, then after a while turned into 2 separate venues, Myst and Retox Rock Bar. Now under the Stewardship of the Gotham City Group ( owners of Suzy Wong's) the place is back to one venue with what seems like little to no change from its original incantation. There's still the Bottle service, there still an air of "exclusivity" purported by the staff (beginning with the door) and apparently there still the familiar issues with service. Although we heard its a bit better than in the Quo days.

The place still looks outstanding, they still draw a good crowd and since their re-opening, have attracted some celebs. They have made an effort in bringing in top shelf DJ's as the main draw. All this effort in the hopes of reviving the West Chelsea lounge scene in an area occupied by mega-clubs.

The Website, is sparse, and tries in that way to be as minimalist as possible. It doesn't make the place intriguing in our opinion but comes across as slightly incomplete. But then again, you don't frequent venues based on their website...

A BAR IN YOUR iPOD

iBar Makes an entry

Over at the Liquor Snob website (http://www.liquorsnob.com) we found out about this new product for your ipod that gives you a mobile drink reference of over 1,000 recipes as well as anecdotes, measurements and references.

We are not exactly sure if you are going to be carrying your iPod with you into your local wateringhole and then using it throughout the night.

Well, it might work with your iPhone.

Buy it at Amazibn.com here:
