Happy Birthday To NYC Nightlife Godfather, Steve Lewis, Party Tonight At Greenhouse!
Today is a BIG day for Birthdays! Celebrating alongside DJ Nick Cohen is our favorite Uncle Steve. The source of decades of our city's nightlife parties, clubs, gossip, and events, the "Godfather" will be celebrating at Greenhouse tonight.
And, in honor of his birthday, the man himself has written a post on being an old man, and the ten reasons he dates younger women!
While we don't exactly approve of his love life, e will obviously be there tonight to toast all things Steve!

is he a little old to still be hanging around the nightlife business. He's like the college guy that still goes to high school parties. Come on, limelight hasn't been open for years

Steve isn't hanging out in the nightlife business - he IS the nightlife business! Plus, you think the deep pockets want to trust their money to someone with no track record (there's a lot more than Limelight)?

Anonymous - you struck a nerve with the aged Christopher Confessore... their (CC and 'Uncle' Steve) regression is laughable. Thing is... I don't think they realize it. :( all the way around.

steve has had a hand in design of about half the relevant joints in ny. he has many design awards to his credit. he is one of 5 judges for the world nightlife awards. his column won village voice nightlife award best blog 2008. he is an advisor to all that count and doesnt need to explain himself to you. he is also a gentleman. clubs are his business and he still likes them!

Wow, Fifth. Are you suggesting nightlife should be governed like Logan's Run? (yes, I'm old AND a SciFi nerd!) - you're not allowed in over 30?

You shouldn't WANT to be allowed in over 30 - nor should you 'contribute' to a 'nightlife' blog... Save yourself for anniversaries, birthday parties, engagement parties and philanthropy only. You people seem to believe the lies spewed to you from New York Magazine, TONY, et al... In case you haven't heard - those GO PARTY! stories are written to influence you by Midwestern faux-interns living in NY via daddy's dentist practice. Keep yourself home unless you're giving back... let the kids enjoy themselves for now, only to realize they are 30, renting, broke and alone. THE MYTH ends here.
Oh, and the Jersey/Westchester/LI contingency that abounds on this site is staggering -- a regional overcompensation in 'the city.'

You are accusing me of something I am not doing. If you were paying attention, you might notice what I personally write about, and what our more (in your opinion) "age-appropriate" contributors do, and the difference between them. But more to the point, by your standards, Teen Vogue would be staffed by high schoolers.

Yes, you might even call me a renaissance man. You'd be wrong, but you could...
