Jason Strauss, the enterprising senior in this story, organized the trip with a contact he had cultivated in the travel-agenting business and sold the packages himself. And also because spring break in Cancún was probably the closest thing you could get to the club lifestyle if you were 18 years old. It makes sense because maybe what we've got at Marquee is spring break for grown-ups circa 2012. One enterprising high school senior from Manhattan had organized a spring-break trip for nearly a hundred of his classmates at various private schools in, or affiliated with the culture of, Upper East Side Manhattan. The story of Marquee begins-which makes sense if you think about it-circa 1993 in Cancún, Mexico. _ We were overwhelmed-by the Funktion-One sound system, by all the bottles of champagne and vodka being consumed._ "That," the owners of Marquee told me, "that is our secret sauce." How exactly do you get 6,000 people to want to come to the same nightclub on any given night? How do you get 6,000 people, all from different places, who don't know one another, many of whom have never been to this nightclub, many of whom don't ever really even _go _to nightclubs, to decide communally that they're going to Marquee? Especially when there were twenty-five other nightclubs right here in Las Vegas that could have strobed them with the same seizure-inducing lights, where equally busty women in similar magician-assistant outfits could sell them the same Grey Goose and cranberry while exactly the same music played in rotation every single night (and by "exactly" I mean, like, more or less the same ten songs). Over the course of the night, 6,000 souls would enter and exit Marquee. Thirty-five hundred: That was the club's capacity. Because for right now, we were still busy being overwhelmed-by the Funktion-One sound system, by all the bottles of champagne and vodka being consumed (conspicuously), by the overwhelming scent of sex (the room was perfumed with bosoms and tushies), overwhelmed by the oontz and oontz and above all by all these fucking people. I guesstimate the general-admission line was a quarter mile long, stretching past the Cosmopolitan hotel's curated "shopping experience" and into a recessed hallway of Pentagonian proportions.įor the moment, we told Joe, we would just chill.

Inside, they were already at capacity.Ī series of velvet ropes tranched the guests into classes-extreme VIPs, semi-VIP hot ladies, unrich ladyless dudes who probably wouldn't get in before 2 A.M. "We don't do a door-hold just for the sake of doing a door-hold, so we can look busy," one of the owners had told me. Las Vegas isn't New York, where part of the social psychology is the difficulty of entrance. It wasn't just for show, either, this massing of people. Teams of 29-year-old white men in untucked dress shirts and heavy cuff links who stood stunned mute by the endless throng of women wearing almost identical vagina-length dresses that perpetually seemed on the verge of revealing at least, at _least, _a butt cheek-though by some invisible force above the hemline never, never ever did. Pods of probably either Libyan or Italian princes of the overclass in blazers and exposed solar plexuses and calfskin loafers and Adrian Grenier knit caps. Packs of Asian bachelorettes sucking on cock-and-balls lollipops. on a Saturday, you know why the promoters call this process "bringing the shitshow." Massing out front were, by my estimation, at least 2,000 people. When you see the entrance to Marquee at 11 P.M. The opening scenes of the clip show Iris and her mum excitedly heading to the Marina Bay Sands nightclub, with the latter dressed comfortably in a black dress and sneakers.11 P.M.: ONE SATURDAY NIGHT IN APRIL, BRINGING THE SHITSHOW
