Well it certainly looks like we weren't the only guys to get spammed by the folks from Riviera Events (check out the anonymous tips on our Contribute page!), Michael Cole of the SH Magazine did too. He asks some very poignant questions on his blog:
- Are women going to be encouraged to go to events where the flyer promotes doing strange things with Champagne bottles?
- When they say that there will be "free entry for women in sensual chic attire," does this mean that the entire population of Julu Lu will transfer to Bar Rouge?
- Is this the apogee of nightclub entertainment in Shanghai? All you can drink for 100 RMB, plus slutty looking women drink for free?
The sad thing is that this will probably work. Someone finally found a way to out BonBon the folks at BonBon. On the positive side, all of the schemey types that you didn't want to meet, but have more than 100 RMB in their pockets, will probably be at Bar Rouge on Thursday night. Which means I should be safe to roam the rest of the city at will.
We really couldn't have said it better ourselves, and we know we won't be there this Thursday. Still, if anyone of you happens to be there and wants to send in a review, you know you can get us at info@shanghaiist.com (Note to party organisers: Read this page).
