Ahhh yes to Vale or not to Vale? That should never be a question! D'Original Diamond Vale Breakfast Party is legendary. The sophomore year for this event in NY was successful to say the least and can only get better. Thanks to Wayne, Ralph and the rest. TJJ had a blast as usual and can't wait for Miami, can you?
CROWD:
Dance Ram! This event was filled with beautiful people. It's Labor day weekend in NYC so in addition to familiar faces, out of town folks were also on the scene. The ladies were working the summer's latest trends and the fellas were on point.
VENUE/ACCESSIBILITY:
Parking in anywhere in Brooklyn is usually a headache and getting a spot at this event was no different. We walked about two blocks and I am sure that other people trudged even further. It did not help that fall is in the air and we got the shivers as we made our way to the entrance.
VIBES:
This was our second time attending this event at the library and the energy was even more hyped than last year.
Now because of the extremely high ceilings, the acousticts weren't the best last year. However, the promoters took heed and had the space outfitted with the appropriate surround sound. The music was pumping and everyone was jamming as far as your eyes could see. The Duchess Alicia, D'Bandit, Back 2 Basics and Anonymous kept the crowd live. Winery was in full effect!
FOOD/DRINK:
The line for the food was quite long but moved along with ease with folks eager to chow down. There was more of a variety that last year and some folks were seen going back for seconds and thirds! Without question the food was great. Don't you hate getting stuck with chits you forgot to use? Well I don't think anyone had that problem this year. That chit line was long for days and the bar was continuously busy even though the cocktail hour was well attended. The champagne, conac and aged rum served got rave reviews.
SERVICE:
I mentioned the long lline for chits but the turnover at the bar was surprisingly quick. Thanks to Cyllan and the rest of the sexy bar staff, you got served with a smile. :-) The security was no hassle and super tight. It's the safest i've felt at an event to date. And of course Wayne, Ralph and the rest of the Vale Vibe crew continued to ensure everyone's satisfaction.
COST/VALUE:
Fifty big ones! Yes people $50 and it was not an all-inclusive. In these guava times that's pretty steep for a fete. Apparently the promoters had no choice in the price increase. This was a sold out event though so obviously $50 for a Vale vibe event on Labor Day weekend is worth it!

Party had ok vibes but it is way overated. Sound system was not adequate for that space with $50 price tag for what?!?! Event wasn't sold out because I bought my tickets outside, I should have known better than that old promoter trick. They can't get my $$$ again!!!!

That party was great. The music was jumping from the time you entered to end. But then again you just can't please everyone. Looking forward to 2k10

Is the TJJ family associated with the Vale Vibe promoters? This sounds more like a promo than a review.

Unless otherwise stated TJJ is not associated with any promotion. We just say it like it is. In this case we do know the promoters very well so we can name them easily. PS. I did not write this review ;-)

I totally agree with Vincent. This party was way over rated. Unless you got a comp for this there is no way you could agree with the ratings.

Re: Vincent's comment - that was the same thing I said last year- not getting my money again! So I didn't go this year
For me last year the vibe just was not there and the sound was awful. And the $50 felt better in my bank account this year anyway! TJJ - Interesting that both Cribs Appreciation AND Silent Morning boatride both got 80s...at least maintain some consistency in the ratings across parties so your 'review' wouldn't seem so biased. |

I totally agree with this comment..how did cribs appreciation and silent morning get 80's..when they were way better than the vale fete...cribs appreciation had soooo much more to offer and it was freeeee...and silent morning...the vibes were great....you guys need to be more objective with the ratings

You know what they say "when the fox cah get the grapes it say it sour." It is a mazing that some people still prefer a hole in the wall. I was there last year and had a ball. I love the venue. This year I was out of the country. The folks I sent this year had a whale of a time and vow to go back next year. To Wayne, Marcia and the entire Vale group "Thanks! Thanks!. See you guys in Miami. Love Spidey's mom.
