The Eldridge Has At Least One Fan

Grub Street's amazing interview with nightlife king Matt Levine just keeps getting more great comments (91 at last count). Most of them are negative, but not all. Commenter xdfxdfxdf is a card carrying FOML, and has been laying down the truth about just how great the Eldridge and their clients (not customers of course) we be. Here are his comments.

  • haters, if you had the ability to get your hands on a laser-engraved entry card you might have a different perspective. I'm happy to take any of you as my plus-one August 7th when Matt has the soft opening. If you saw the list of people with cards you might want to take me up on the offer. Of the 650 cards that have gone out, none are to swag celebs. I was almost a plus-one until last month. pays to model Steelo after all.
  • FYI, SlopeBoy, Tom Cruise decided that he was going to pass on the laser card - not because he didn't want to be involved, but because he didn't want to take one away from a local elite. Basically, he told Matt that he and Kate would come along as guests of two VERY well known couples. And, just so that you understand who does matter - MKO and Ashley are not on the list - swag doesn't get an invitation.
  • The reason why I have a laser card and you don't is simple - I happen to be somebody that people want to actually hang out with. Regarding Tom [Cruise], he is cool - saying he isn't is ludicrous but I can't fault you for not knowing any better - you aren't able to socialize with him (or call him a friend as I do) because you can't get into anywhere that is exclusive enough that he would be there. Regarding Reyka, try it over ice in a highball glass and I can promise that your opinion will be changed forever.
    Have fun with your swag crowd at whatever clubs you frequent after waiting in long lines. Oh, and say hi to the Olsen twins this weekend - you can even tell Mary Kate that XD said hello.
So, Tom Cruise won't have his own card but will be coming by with his friends who are well known and will have a card. Also, the soft opening will be August 7, which is a Thursday and of course not a weekend when all of the card holders are out of town. But what we want to know is, what if every card holder wants to come at the same time? It only holds 130 people. This is a tricky spot, but we trust that Matt and his door staff/promotions director will figure it out.
