I AM A LASER: Downtown LA’s New Night for Fresh Beats, Live Art & Urban Freaks

*Skandar* · 11-03-2009

Fuck your cool lineups on a school night!

whats Club Nokia like?

Shilo · 11-04-2009

This event is in the Club Nokia Mezzanine Bar, part of the larger Club Nokia. Both are super swank venues. I made up the word "Bladerunneresque" to best describe it, set in the ridiculous Staples Center Complex which is LA's equivalent of Times Square. Club Nokia is the main, huge venue and the bar is upstairs and more chill and intimate.

Here are some photos: Club Nokia | Photo Gallery

Here is my review of the first time I visited the Staples Center/Club Nokia, for Pendulum & the Glitch Mob:

"Walking up to the complex surrounding the Staples Center in downtown LA from my free parking space (SCORE!) I was truly taken aback, eyes up and jaw down like a tribesman in Times Square. The avenues leading up to this massive public party arena and collection of venues is lined with dozens and dozens of trees, all glistening with periwinkle lights that don’t just twinkle but drip sparkles from the branches. It is an awesome effect.

"The central plaza is dominated by no less than ten enormous screens blasting corporate-hip music and images of pretty young faces that we are supposed to want to be, and the modern altars burn so brightly it seems like daytime. I put on my shades. The scale of the open square is dazzling, and even though you know that those flashing screens are trying to sell you something, you can’t help but be amazed at this circus mecca of entertainment we have created for ourselves. The place was CRACKing, tons of young people out to see or be seen in the scene, to make out with their hot boyfriends up against posts, and to rock out to Pendulum."

So that is what I thought! I was impressed!
