Empire Ballroom

Fodor's Review:

The decadence of Drai's is writ large in this cavernous old ballroom. Three bikini-clad women on the stage are always doing the Jerk while psychedelic lights blind you, techno and trance sounds make you deaf, and multiracial, mostly beautiful local hardcore-types -- for "hardcore," read "piercings and tattoos on the inside as well as the outside of their bodies" -- dance themselves into a frenzy. This is as over-the-top as after-hours gets, though Seamless seems to be stealing some of its thunder lately. Sunday nights go Latin for a party called "Latin Empire."
