“Marquee will 100 percent continue to do bottle service. Even though part of our clientele makes a living in the financial sector, we still have a lot of customers that will expect and who can afford the luxury of bottle service.”
- NY Mag
“Yesterday an e-mail from publicity hound JE Englebert told us that, thanks to the “recessed and depressed economy,” admission to his club Prime “will no longer be driven by bottle sales. If someone looks good enough to get in and comes with the right attitude, they will get in without bottles … The days of catering to the assh*** who is willing to buy 6 bottles at the expense of the nice guy who wants to pay cover is over.” Yo, preesh the sentiment, but you might want to get your peeps onboard. We e-mailed one of Prime’s promoters to take advantage of the new policy and here’s the exchange that ensued.”

“The New Orleans 100” is a worldwide initiative that will highlight and encourage discussion among millions about 100 of the most innovative and world-changing ideas to take root in the city since Katrina.
After hearing so many of the positive changes and innovative projects post-Katrina, we’ve decided enough is enough. It’s time to put an end to the negative press in mainstream media. We know that the levees broke. We know that our city is dysfunctional. We know that. But do you know about Prospect.1? Or about the influx of young professionals into New Orleans? The world needs to know about the NEW New Orleans. And to quote Brad Pitt, “If you’re going to rebuild something, why not rebuild it right?” Amen brother.
To combat top down media during the anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, we will leverage bottom up tools on the social web (email, blogs, twitter, facebook, digg, etc.), which can reach a combined audience of millions to raise awareness about New Orleans and inspire action to make a difference.
The list will be released on Monday, August 25th - the week of the Hurricane Katrina anniversary. Our goal is to reach 1,000,000 pageviews by 8/29/08. We encourage everyone to spread the word by emailing the list, blogging it, digging it, stumbling it, and yelling it out their windows.
You can make a difference. All it takes is a click!
