The Battle of Los Angeles (nightlife)



Sometimes, if you are around long enough, you get a chance to see things come full circle.

In sports, some of the best games are between the biggest rivals (i.e, Michigan v Ohio State, Lakers v Celtics, Yankees v Red Sox, Duke v Tar Heels, etc.).

Well, here is a true Hollywood classic rivalry taking place tomorrow night.

Back in the day, before there were 25 - 35 different nightclubs, there were really only a small few. There was Concord, The Loft, Deep, Spider, Prey, Shelter, LAX, as well as a few others.

The two biggest forces in the Hollywood nightlife scene at the time were: Brent Bolthouse & The Alliance.

Both were capable of having the hottest and biggest Hollywood stars at there establishments, on their nights regularly.

The best battle I have ever witnessed was: Brent Bolthouse and his team at LAX on Wednesday nights, against The Alliance at Mood on the same night. Both venues were just a few feet away from each other and it was one of the best times in Hollywood.

Now, with Brent Bolthouse leaving SBE and opening his own venue (Trousdale), and with David Judakken re-opening and re-designing Mood into his new venue(MyStudio); it should be quite the Tuesday night battle.

Brent Bolthouse has personally made it a point to stamp Tuesday nights at Trousdale his personal pet project. Needless to say that The Alliance are trying to make their personal mission to plant their flag down on Tuesday nights.

We shall see who will be victorious on Tuesday nights in Hollywood.

Which venue on Tuesday night will generate the biggest "star power"?

Which Tuesday night will last the longest?

These questions will be answered shortly.

This will be my last post, until my next post.
