Even though our knack for hyperbole didn’t piss off Pacha (hey, they sent us an invite for this weekend didn’t they?) someone was a little miffed at our exaggertory tendancies.
So, we retract our previous un-fact-checked statement that people were “passing out all over the place” on Friday night. Turns out it was just one Kate Moss wannabe who was ODing Colin Farrell style. Observes one Pacha goer:
I was there, and witnessed the ONE and ONLY chick who was on something pass out (it wasn’t booze). The TRUE story is that the cops came because of NY Post pic. of AJ Soprano who is 20–drinking a bottle of Vodka on front page on Thurs…. .but they NEVER shut the place down.
Once the cops came in to make sure there wasn’t overcrowding (and shut music and turned on lights) they left–but mgmt. apparently felt that the vibe was already done, and decided to bite the bullet and close for the night. Some Ppl were there til 3 AM. The OD chick was AFTER the cops got there, and no big deal. Check around–she went to another club later that night and was bragging about it.
NYC needs another big club, and this place seems cool enough. Give it a chance.
For the record, though: we do sort of consider ODing on anything but booze kind of a big deal.
