[thesightless]

NYPD has shut down and revoked the permits for Pasha NYC. morillo was an owner i think. you can thank none other than the sopranos brats. robert iler who plays tony sopranos son was caught on camera slamming back a bottle of vodka next to jamie lynn saclia (meadow) . needless to say once the papers got a hold of it, it was only a matter of time.

did they recant from before? If so, easy come easy go...

This was Sunday's Post about Friday night's grand opening...



December 11, 2005 -- It might be too hot inside hip new nightclub Pacha.

The posh Spanish import was quickly shut down yesterday, hours after its grand opening, when the West Side club grew overcrowded and one partygoer collapsed from a drug overdose.

The 3,000-person capacity club, housed on West 46th Street near the Intrepid Museum on the Hudson, opened at 11 p.m. Friday and quickly filled up with clubbers.

Cops were called to the fourth-floor VIP room at 1:30 a.m. to treat a woman who had passed out from drug use, said officers at the scene.

Medics treated her inside the club for nearly 40 minutes.

She was able to walk out of the club and into an ambulance that took her to St. Vincent's Hospital.

And while other people were inside dancing and enjoying $300 bottles of vodka, the street outside began to flood with nearly 2,500 people trying to get in, prompting cops to shut the party down.

"We had just as many people outside as we did inside," said one officer trying to control the crowd. "We have to break it up."

As people were being forced out of the top floor, bouncers told the crowd not to worry.

"We're not shutting down. They [police officers] are going to leave soon. People are leaving on their own accord. We're not kicking people out," one worker said to confused clubbers.

But a short time later, cops shuttered the club and told people to leave.

The club was due to open as usual last night.

Clearly, the new club — which features dancers in bikinis gyrating in glass-enclosed showers overlooking the dance floor and waitresses serving drinks wearing nothing more than body paint — is a hit.

But with success comes trouble.

On Wednesday, underage "Sopranos" actor Robert Iler was caught by a photographer downing a bottle of expensive vodka while smoking a cigarette at a private party.

As a result, officials from the State Liquor Authority visited the club and warned staffers about underage drinking, Pacha employees said.

The parking garage-sized club is the first Pacha to open in North America, but the franchise is famous worldwide. Owner Ricardo Urgell's empire now includes 25 nightclubs.

Re: Pasha NYC shut down.

Which they will try...

Is it me or are US laws and police really happy on closing clubs and incriminating everything that EDM lovers do? They seem to think every clubgoer is a drug-addict or something...hysterical.

yeah that's one thing that's beyond me. Hip hop nights in a lot of cities in the US are famous for underage people using fake IDs and drinking and everyone including the clubs know it.
