Bowery Electric: Located in the former Remote Lounge, Bowery Electric has transformed a faux '70s Mission Control Center into what could be The Cure’s backstage hangout room. This unplugged version—owned by Mike Stuto of HiFi and Jesse Malin and Johnny T of Niagara and Black and White—doesn't do much to set it apart from other NoHo haunts. Blue striped walls, dark wood fixtures, and sepia-washed paintings try to evoke a Victorian milieu, while the DJ spins a mix of classic rock from a booth equipped with its own chandelier. If the sparse rocker-emo crowd is too much for you, try moving to the back room for some shameless necking. There you’ll find couches, vintage trunks, and a few other intentional knick-knacks—it feels as if the owners were going for antique chic, but ran out of money halfway through. Oh well, at least the bartenders are cute. Let's hope some rocker sightings kick the shock factor up a watt. |
