Dear DBTH: Aussies in Need of Help
Tis the season for helping your friends and doing your all to provide a helping hand to strangers that are in need. So sweet. So today we ask you, our faithful readers, to lend a hand to an Aussie Bloke who is making his first trip to New York City for New Years Eve.
I've been reading your site trying to get a feel for a good place for NYE this year in NYC to go with my mates from Aus. I was thinking about Pink Elephant but have gone a bit off it after all the turmoil. The other option was Home.
I've never been to New York before (I'm am so pumped its not funny) but I get the impression that the events at these places will be a bit of a w@nk with lots of tourists like me. What I'm really after is some electro-house in a cool club with hot chicas, selective clientele and not so cheesy! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
For someone who has never been here, it seems they already have a pretty good handle on what not to do. So what do you say campers? Anyone have some down and dirty tips for our friend from Down Under?

I would go to pacha if you like house/electro, on new years eve its a 24 hour event with Danny Tenaglia, DJ Boris, Richie Santana & Peter Bailey from MindControl and Chriss Vargas (of made in Colombia = lots of hottttt colombian girls always are out for him)
thats where I will be!
pink or kiss & fly
@ pacha suggestion if you want to be with tourists until 4am, and crackheads until 10pm.
You need to go to Cielo. Roots (Kevin Hedge and Louie Vega) going to be upscale crowd, great house music, and great looking people.
also, lol@ DJ -LQ comment, i love this site.
That Pacha comment is a bit off the mark. Yes the druggies will be there till 10PM but the party gets poppin at about 430 am and there are NO tourists, there is trannys, asians, a couple of meat heads, def hot colombian girls some gays and some old school house heads. It is eclectic to say the least. Just get out before noon and you will be ok.. That party is less upscale but more insane than what you will find at Cielo. No knock to Cielo just different crowd makeup and less sexy. I honestly stay away from major clubs NYE because owners make so much money on this night that they overfill their venues and it is too packed to even enjoy yourself table or not! Go to a house party save on the cover or bottle minimum and surround yourself with your friends!!
