| - I went to PURE on Paris Hitlon's birthday (Feb. 16th). I'm kind of sad to admit this, but I actually think Paris is pretty awesome so I wanted to see her.
Unfortunately, even though I added myself to the guestlist, the line was so crazy when my party arrived at 10:30 that we gave up trying to go in. I talked to a bouncer who seemed like he was totally ready to admit women first, but once he found out that I had guys in my group he said I had to wait in line. Seriously, the crowds were a MESS and the wait easily would have been over an hour.
Several of my other girl friends made it to PURE anyway (and were invited into the VIP section), so I headed back at about 1 a.m. I didn't have to pay cover, and it was fun to be in VIP for awhile, except that I wasn't honestly that impressed by PURE. The decor's all white and silver and it reminded me of the inside of a large bathroom. The white curtains weren't helping either.
OH - I SAW PARIS HILTON FOR A SECOND AND IT WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY LIFE.
The view was great upstairs, the crowd was well-dressed, and I did enjoy the atmosphere a lot, but the music was a disappointment.
Let's put it this way: the DJ in the main room started playing DJ Felli Fel's "Get Buck In Here", but was so schizophrenic that s/he actually changed songs right before the line, "While you make it clap clap clap clap clap." Um yeah, I was getting ready to dance to that and you ruined my song...
So for now, I can only give PURE 3 stars, due to the trouble getting in initially and also for the bad music and the bathroom-inspired decor.
I would definitely not oppose to going back again though, so if my experience is better next time I'll update this.
