Friday, March 13, 2009 Venue Adventures: Jet Entertainment Takes Off By Orange Peel Moses @ 8:08 PM :: 1226 Views :: 0 Comments :: Nightlife, Events The Jet Hotel (and its membership-only basement Twenty) has long been successful enticing high-end clientele and Purple Martini in the Tabor Center (another recent purchase) has a lock on a certain percentage of the hip hop crowd. Wicked Garden, after the Stone Temple Pilots’ stomper, would fill the rock bar niche market.

A thousand sweat-drenched revelers exploded with vibed-up energy; hands stretched skyward as they worshiped at the temple of their electro-Canadian clergy. Read More..
