Plumm is Closed - No One Cares
Q: How do you know that the nightclub you own is irrelevant?
A: It gets shut down and hardly anyone notices.
A prime example is The Plumm, which has been closed for "legal problems" for several days and no one noticed except for this site. Hell, we wouldn't have even noticed if not for a Little Birdy that sent it our way. Not good news for Noel Ashman, who has big dreams but little business traction. We guess that downstairs expansion didn't take off like planned.

whats the plumm?
Landlord issues
because of that piss of shit Noel doesnt pay his dept!
Burn in hell Ashman
Noel + Ashaman = Douche Bag
Basic math
i like the plumm
If plumm closes they had over 3 good years much longer then most cheers
Noel owes money to half of NYC promoters.
Noel + Plumm = you will not get paid!
I heard it will be back open on thursday
DOES THIS MEAN DAVID JAFFEE WILL NEVER GET TO PROMOTE THE PLUMM?
Plumm is open this week and will be open for a long time! Be smart and think!
Do you really think Noel Ashman will loose a club just like that?
He will sell it first, before anything happens to it. No matter how stupid people says he is.
i agree & i hope it does open on thursday because i really enjoy plumm lots of fun times
I agree with club girl great run! mad props two plumm and noel thanks for the memories hopefully many more coming
"sell the club"? For what the 3 million he was asking?
The club has been evicted for non-payment and won't be reopening, period. Game over.
"Be smart and think!" indeed.
bring back nell's!!!!
god dammit! i'm still owed $400 in credit card tips from 5 months ago- they keep giving me the run around as if I was some 6'4' 200lb Italian loan shark.
Headache.

I always had fun at the plumm
my plumm hurts
I am upset i loved this place i saw guns & roses perform there as well as lindsay lohan
No wait... I was too drunk to care lol
What is it gonna replace with ?
I like noel and love plumm... this is sad.
I agree with mike noel is a good brotha i wish him well thanks for the good times!
I agree with you all. Noel is a great guy to hang out and drink with, the only problem is that if you work for him, he will not have the money to pay you.
I know at least 15 people that still needs to get paid from Plumm.
To just saying do you read the paper? We are in a bad recession every club has been back on its bills plumm included. Also if you know the history of plumm you would now that it was noels partner who was screwing people noel reopened the club as plumm to pay back his investors i give him alot of credit it was a fun place and i will miss it.
Do you guys read? This story is all over the net and in the ny post guess alot of people do care about the plumm
@saying, you're retarded and you don't even know. Stop making up stories about affairs you have no clue about.
Noel drained everyone he was involved with at the plumm (minus his 2 celebrity investors) Tom pretty much got financially-anally-raped because he cared and trusted Noel. And is still stuck there on that sinking ship in hopes that by some miracle, he might make his hard-earned money back.
The plumm stopped paying out their waitresses and bartenders credit card tips a year before the "recession" .
I'm hoping that all you promoters out there that are still owed money by that dinosaur skulled imbecile, bring it back old school and get midevil on his ass. Oh wait, that's right, promoters are skinny dicked faggots who bark loud, and put on an over-exaggerated front as IF they were tough.
Nevermind
R I P Plumm, we will miss you.
Wait a second, you guys still owe me money, WTF
Hey scott(dbth) do you want to blow noel ashman? lol Why do you keep writing about him? It is getting sad find a new crush
I will really miss this place!
I will really miss this place!
how can you defend people who refused to pay me credit cards tips that i earned !!!!!! That is out and out theft!!! I finaly walked out last summer and am in a much better place but theyre thieves and those no way round it shame on them!!
besides a few "special events", plumm was never really a desirable place to go on a weekly or nightly basis...
i dont understand why this is a big deal, especially at this point in the game...
it's been DUNZO for a long time already.
The legal problem is the nightclub is full of drugs.
weight loss
i feel bad for noel for some reason...i dont think he realizes how he affected people. even though i had to fight for my money and ended up leaving because of money owed. always the run around. run around for a bottle, for a check, closed door in the office, unreachable by day, etc.....noel i wish you would have listened to everyone around you! "supermodel caron bernstein"....cmon dude?
I smiled when I walked by the plumm today and saw the giant FOR RENT sign above the door
I will miss plumm alot, it really was a throw back to another time before bottle service. Thank you noel ashman ,chris noth & everyone else who brought us this place hope you do another club soon!
Thank you noel ashman for the pkumm was an iconic place!!
Hey dbth(scott) guess alot of people ended up caring alot about plumm closing do a google search and learn your job!
I had hoped that Plumm would work but it never did. In all the time it was open it never made money it was only kept open by Noel Mother's personal checkbook. Noel has no business sense and has long since lost his ability to promote a club. Never believe what you read on page six it is all paid for.
There is a long line of creditors apart from the landlord. He never filed company taxes, did not pay his sales tax bills or multiple other vendors. It was only a matter of who would close it down first, the landlord or the tax man.
I am sorry for the Bus boys, Bartenders etc who lost money on this but don't think for a minute that any of those Celebrities he was fond of quoting lost any money. They never had any stake in the game. Most of the investment came from Wall street types.
