Is New York ready for an invasion of Miami nightlife? Well, ready or not, here it comes. A little birdy checks in, saying "was eating lunch at Cirpriani Downtown and overheard Eric Milon discussing some available spaces in NYC. Specifically, he was discussing taking over the Studio Mezmor (formerly crobar)space." Interesting little birdy. Very interesting. Perhaps these Miami folks think they know something about the 27th Street area that NYC operators don't. For those who aren't familiar, Milon is a former model turned nightlife player who owns and operates the Opium Group in South Beach and is expanding into Vegas soon. Where have we heard that before? Will a New York version of a Miami nightclub fly? DBTH is betting on no. Unlike in Miami, we can't wear pastels all year long.

Actually... I'd give the Opium Group a little more credit. I grew up in the clubs in NYC (SoundFactory, Limelight, Tunnel, etc) And now I spend my winters in Miami working for clubs Nocturnal, Space and Cameo (old Crobar) to name a few and I have to say that I'm more partial to the Miami scene. It's more about fun and the music and its like a family once u get to know the other locals. Cant say that too much about NYC anymore unfortunately. We'll see what happens I guess... I'll sure be hittin it up and promoting Mansion once it opens.

Hipster, as used in the 1940s, referred to aficionados of jazz, in particular modern jazz, which became popular in the early 40's. The hipster adopted the lifestyle of the jazz musician, including some or all of the following: manner of dress, slang terminology, use of cannabis and other drugs, relaxed attitude, sarcastic humor, self-imposed poverty, sportsbook, and relaxed sexual codes. Early hipsters were generally white youths adopting many of the ways of urban blacks of the time, but later hipsters often copied the early ones without knowing the black origins of the culture. The term eventually described many members of the Beat Generation.
