Butter Secures Itself As Monday Night Hotspot With Stamp Of Approval By John Mayer, Lindsay Lohan, And Samantha Ronson

So, how DOES a nightclub stay relevant after all those years? Have owners that are experienced in all things NYC Nightlife, with thick Rolodexes from their days as promoters, and enough stamina to withstand thousands of nights out until 5am.
Get Steve Lewis involved in some aspect of the design. He will tell everyone he knows about where the inspiration came from for years to come.
Talk about changing the face of nightlife in NYC, and then have enough time and energy to go and do it.
You need to have some A-list contacts that trust you because you have never disclosed the NUMEROUS acts of incredulous behaviors that you've witness them partake in at your establishments. You will go so far as to pay for photos of said celebrities to be burned by the bloggers that got emailed phone photos of them.
Add in a couple mentions on Gossip Girl and NYC Prep, along with a day of the week that has little competition (Monday night) and you are on your way for a successful run. Pretty Young Things will clamor to throw their birthday parties there, and you will have more hungover Tuesdays than you care to remember.
