Intrigue - Anyone doing Recon this weekend?

[Hurricane]

Getting a table there next Saturday night. Going to lock down table location with Bobby on Monday probbly. Anyone going there tonight or tomorrow who can report back on the new layout? Dance Floor table is laughingly outside our budget, and for some reason I didn't get an invite to the inner sanctum, so I'm choosing between Patio, Side DF, Upper 3rd and Lower 3rd. Group is all guys (bachelor party). I'm sure Bobby will give it to me straight but would love to hear a customer's perspective. I never minded being on the patio at Tryst so unless I get some first hand info that says to spring for the additional $$ to move inside, that's probably what we'll choose.

Yep Bobby is solid for Intrigue. I checked it out this past Thursday. Place looks nice and it was slammed.
A few new bells and whistles as mentioned. No earth shattering changes though. I enjoyed it.

Can anyone confirm if Bobby Y is the best host for Intrigue to contact and if so does anyone have his contact info, I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Any chance you could try to upload that photo again? It seems very small and low res from my end.

Anyone go this past weekend? I've yet to see anything that would encourage me to go to Intrigue over XS. Unless prices come down, I just don't get it.

Nice video! Besides themed dancers, I still don't see how this differs from a normal club.

I've just found this youtube video with some footage from intrigue . Head to 13.44 to view it.

Lotta talk about how to make Intrigue unique, how about Pikachus with freaking laser beam eyes!

From their early press releases it appeared they were going to have rotating themes that spread over the whole club (visuals, dancers, waitresses, bus boys etc).maybe we were wrong or that fell through. Hopefully that comes to fruition, you just would think the one thing that could separate the space from the past would be ready from day one.

My understanding was this was more on the monthly scale, such as the club having a different theme and look in June vs. July. This was supposedly going to be done to help keep it fresh and new for repeat customers.

Marquee and Omnia already do this, and I'm sure any club would for a sufficiently important guest. Omnia has even dropped performers delivering pizza from the ceiling like they do champagne presentations.

Interesting, haven't seen that at Marquee or Omnia, but at Marquee I'm always front center on the dance floor and Omnia I've only been once on a Tuesday.

Interesting, serving pizza is a change I would welcome, I wonder how VIP do you have to be to get them to do that? I always thought clubs should have food available inside as to increase profit and keep people from leaving as early, but figured issues such as grease and cleanliness were the problems.preventing that plan. Either they decided those can be overcome or it's just another reason it's too bad we're not all models, lol.

The thing is bringing pizza to your table is old hat and not new at all. Rain's pyro seems impressive in retrospect because IT WAS RIGHT ABOVE YOUR HEAD. It was really a one trick pony that has been bettered since.

Just thinking outside the box. Something like that would be innovative. what is not innovative is putting dancers on platforms and having fireworks. that has all been done before.

It's absolutely been done before, but currently the best pyrotechnics and performers are in Vegas's past, not it's present.

Having giant blasts of fire right above me at Rain was what sold me on clubbing in Vegas in the first place. It was just such a ridiculous thing that there would be giant streams of fire and then a massive blast of cold air over and over, directly above you, that it was hard to not marvel at the excessiveness. XS Nightswim's pyrotechnics were a great addition last year, but they definitely aren't the same as what Rain had.

With regard to performers again Rain's aerialists, Ghostbar Dayclub's stiltist, Light's Cirque du Soleil performers, The Acts costumes and dance routines, and Rose. Rabbit. Lie.'s many talented performers.are all in our past. Marquee often has some really good go-go dancers, but other than that, every current club's dancers and performers are a poor imitation of what has previous been done.

I'm not saying good pyrotechnics or a particularly interesting set of performers would make this a completely new club concept, but those things done right would definitely play a role in my decision making on a night where DJ choice isn't the priority.
