MISSION

I am a New Yorker who by a universal mistake was born in Russia and had to cross continent and then traverse US
to finally find a city with a heartbeat that matched mine.
No other city embraced me. In Moscow I was too outspoken, in Miami too fast, in Chicago too daring.
New York City gave me life.
Its heart and spirit will be forever young as its blood is
always renewed with fresh talent. Dreamers and critics, romantics and seekers, performers and transformers from all over the world strive to make a mark in NYC. Creative renewal is in the air we breathe and every generation of New Yorkers has its own art, nightlife, and social scenes that evolve continuously. Keeping up with all events that are shaping this city is a challenge, but I will try to bring you the fascinating, the beautiful and the outrageous in New York City nightlife with an emphasis on underground electronic music scene which happens to be my favorite fantasy land.
Expect the unexpected

Proper Trick or Treat

Ummmm Can I have both?
Ladies and Gentlemen the city is abuzz with energy already! There are pre-parties and after- parties and the actual parties; costume stores filled with frantic last minute shoppers who still can't figure out what to be this year. Bring on the theatrics club kids...
Let's get to the treats: first off the party of parties tonight will be Steve Angello at M2. Even though I am not a big fan of M2 (bad space design), this party will rock your socks/panties off.
Swedish House Mafia in da house, how cool can Halloween get? Oh it's getting better....
For die hard fans of Frankie Bones and Heather Heart rave duo there is a party in Williamsburg N8. Bring on the glow sticks, super wide floor duster pants and polish up those platforms. This rave is in full effect and yes to answer your question, Ricky's has glow sticks :)
On to tomorrows festivities: there are at least 30 venues with full on Halloween rip off.
What is a Halloween rip off? Overcharging at the door with a promise of an open bar.
You think that's not so bad? What you will get at these parties are: cheap crowd dressed in cheap costumes drinking cheap free liquor faster than you can spell trick.
Imagine the fights, imagine the madness, imagine the runny mascara and gum stuck to your wig. Not pretty!
If you really want to party like it's 1999 in your over the top gorgeous costume that took months to imagine and 2 weeks to execute start your night late, I say around 1 am. Head over to some nice, civilized place like Sullivan Room or SubMercer. Have yourself a cocktail and relax, don't drink it too fast, the night is young after all. Take pictures and have some taken of you looking fresh with a glass of champagne! Dance a little without breaking a sweat, warm up your body for later. Around 3 am hop on the train, don't even dream of a cab because all those people that went for cheap booze are now throwing up in them. Not pretty!
Head over to one of the following venues: Pacha (don't mind the kids) or Pergatorio (don't mind the gays). Danny Tenaglia will surely bring Pacha to climax and hopefully the sound system will cope. And Junior Vasquez will reign at Pergatorio for an after-hours filled with burlesque dancers, midgets, and ghouls. How bout this classic? Danny and Junior playing on the same night at 2 different places on a Saturday! Last time I remember this was 1999 Tunnel and Twilo.
So prep yourself for this weekend properly boys and girls...
Because it's a classic "club kids" Halloween in New York City.
Now that's a treat we've all been waiting for!
PS get your tickets online http://www.saintatlarge.com/ ; http://www.pachanyc.com/ they are cheaper and you'll wait less in line, but you knew that didn't you ;)
