Five Club   

I'll preface this entry by saying I was sober the entire time I was there. We arrived after having emailed for guest list days in advance only to be told we weren't on it. The door bitch was nice to me, but had been so nasty to every other set of people in line it was unreal. Not New York fashionista mean, just saying some horrible stuff. She actually made the girls in front of me cry. Later, while in a bathroom stall some girl is so sick that vomit started rolling under the door. there was no sign or anyone who worked there. The patrons were kinda yikes. There was a lot of self important horrible straight up raver dancing, which matched the god awful dj's that mixed like they were getting **** **** under the decks or in advanced stages of Parkinson's Disease. There was a bongo player on the roof deck who was so wasted that he was ruining the crappy music even more. The crowning achievement was when I walked past the bar and a security guard groped me. It wasn't even a light cop a feel or ass smack, it was a full on grabbing so much of my ass in one hand and tit in the other that he could have picked me up! Had he not clearly been a 7 foot huge black guy compared to my skinny 105 pound frame I would have decked him regardless of if he were security or not. I don't know if Nation closing caused five to go to hell, but i think it did. the bongo player, afro dyke at the door were, as well as my loving security guard need to go!!!!!!!!

NYE a few friends and I arrived at Five already there was drama. A customer was crying and cursing because she could not get her jacket. This was sign to turn around and leave, unfortunately we did not. We met a few employees who were great and went out of their way to make us comfortable. All was well until my friend tried to get some water. What place does not take credit cards?! The bartender was rude. I guess since she figured we had no cash so there was no reason for her to be nice. Then at 4:30 the lights came on and everyone was told to leave. A bouncer blocked my exit path via the stairs while harassing my friend. He was right behind her barking, literally making barking noises at her, as she was leaving down the stairs. I said "Excuse Me" and he turns around screams "No, Excuse You". He was very confrontational. I told him to get out of the way. He was blocking the whole staircase. He told me to ******* leaving. I said I would if he moved out of my ******* way. He got within inches of my face while spitting and screaming at me. I wiped the spit off my face and stated how gross that was. I maneuvered around the bouncer to the top of the stairs. The bouncer verbally and physically assaulted me. I started screaming because he was physically pushing against me while I was standing at the top of the staircase. This prompted another worker to speak to the bouncer. I moved down the stairs. The bouncer was arguing with the other worker while threatening to kick my ass. I turned around and said with shock "I can't believe YOU'RE security". I thought the bouncer was going to come down the stairs after me. I was within seconds of calling for the police. It is hard to believe that a major corporation such as Primacy Companies would employee workers so unprofessional. This is unfortunate because the music was superior, but not worth the misery. Save up your money and go to Fur's Glow instead.
