Something Tight at Happy Ending
302 Broome St., nr. Forsyth St. 212-334-9676
Something Tight D.J.’s Timmy D and Telfar (who play a mix of Italo disco, nineties pop hits, and random gems) never advertise, which is why it has remained a raucous crowd of downtown fashion kids, artists, porn stars, sexy nerds, and Eastern Europeans. Upstairs you’ll find a straighter, but no less raucous, crowd. It takes place on the first, third (and fifth) Thursdays of every month, from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m., but the best time to be there is at 1 a.m., when everyone gets a freebie. Recent treats: McDonald’s cheeseburgers, shots of Britney’s “Purple Drank,” and Slim ’n’ Tipsies (vodka and Slim-Fast). Gross, but brilliant.
Best Dance Party
Our mission this year: to hunt down not just the best but the best values in the eating, shopping, drinking, and general-consuming universe of New York. It’s quite the process, this, requiring eating and shopping and drinking (all in the name of research), followed by heated but civil discussion, and heated but less-civil discussion, until a winner emerges in each category.
