Crobar was one of the easier one to get in for free when there is no super big DJ playing. There is a Crobar in Miami too. The Crobar in NYC got shutdown for drug use/traffic on premise. Crobar in Chicago is no comparison to the Crobar NYC.
I used to go to Avalon a lot when I first moved to NYC 3 years ago cause Avalon Boston was one of my favorite clubs in Boston. Then I found out how to get into Crobar (and the reincarnation Studio Mezmor) for free so that became my favorite place to go to in NYC. Now I have no favorite place. :cry:
