Went to the clubs last night - Friday nitght 12/29/06 - I arrived at the Downer around 9:00pm or so and it was moderately busy. As the night progressed, it got busier but not jammed as I have seen it. At least I could walk around without constantly bumping into people but there was a wait for the lap rooms - +/- 10min. The talent was great as usual - special mention goes to Carmen, Natalie, Dezi (her zaney personality is worth a dance or two!), Shana and Naomi. Stopped into Seductions, paid my $8 cover and was VERY dissapointed at the quality. What is going on with this place? I keep trying to give them a fair shot to see if quality improves but it does not. I left after a drink. (costly drink - 8 cover, 7 drink for 30 minutes) on my way home I drove by SI but did not hardly see anyone in the parking lot so I kept going. Now your up to date on the scene. BTW - DJ guy at the Downer made an announcement that the club shuts down at 7:00pm on Sunday in case you were thinking of bringing in the New Year there - they will be closed.
