    Ted Bailey, of Mapcity.com left the following comment on our Media Meshing post from Friday:

    "No place like NYC to withstand a depression! — Parties everywhere. — great post and great advice….”when the going get’s tough, all you need to do is party!”

    And party we did:

    We played at Playhouse with Cain LUXE and checked out the Wednesday night party at Ella.

    We caughted up with some real life underage Gossip Girls who were partying away on Shirly Temples (?) They were set out to prove that you can still have drunk makeout sessions without actually being drunk at a mixer hosted by Z100.

    Citrine hosted a party for Gradient Magazine and we got another look at the new space.

    Olympians Tim and Jason were all over town.  They met the likes of Julianne Moore and Chris Austad at the Hugo Boss awards, and hung out with their old pal Richie Rich at the Cool Vs. Cruel Fashion Competition at the Bowery Hotel.

    The most powerful father/son nightlife team in the city got together to help Jeff Goldstein celebrate the one year anniversary of his Blue & Cream store on the Bowery.  The Big Picture featured Patrick's iconic images from over the year and was curated by son Liam.  These two are a hot duo!

    Another new club was set to open this week with a little spin, it is supposedly the first eco-friendly club to hit the world and it's creator, Jon B may have gotten in over his head.  Greenhouse needed another night or so to prepare but we'll give him another week before we go and give it a look-see.

    The Box hosted the "most interesting show in the world" and gave us some of our more exciting photos to date.

    GofG is starting to offer New Years Eve Party tickets to people!  Make this year's New Year Party the "best $2k you ever spent!"

    Pink Elephant's Rocco Ancarola threw his birthday party on the same night that Jayma Cardosa of Cain LUXE did, making 27th street even more populated than usual.

    Scott and Naeem were up to their usually partying ways.  They did Waverly, Blue and Cream, and Aspen nights with Ally Hilfilger one night, and Wintuk, concerts and loads of parites another with Leven Rambin. They tried to check out Greenhouse, but decided to give it another week.  All while somehow managing to host THE party to be at on Thursday night for Leven as a "welcome home" to the rising star.  She will sadly be leaving us again at the end of the week which means we will need another going away party right?

    Finally, the week culminated with one big party last night at the Paper Magazine Nightlife awards at Mansion. We were nominated for best Nightlife website and had fun partying with all of our friends.  Stay tuned for more on this party later today.
