This is Steve, the original creator of The Lido Room and former PARTNER of Joe, who now runs his own party that he calls the Lido Lounge (copying the Lido name). I created The Lido Room back in 2010, while Joe was "taking a break" from the business.
Lido_Mgnt is obviously Joe, but so is PremiumEvents and Lost_In_Space. I know because he was my partner for over 5 years and nobody knows him better than me (except maybe his wife).
Its pretty obvious that its him when you read the reviews and closely analyze the profiles.
LisaDancer is also one of his many fake profiles (apparently he likes pretending he's a girl; for example, Jennifer Lido).
So you guys can take with a grain of salt everything written in those posts.
Together Joe and I built the Lido Room into the #1 pop-up club in NYC. We moved our event to Scores last December and operated there through July.
At that time, he negotiated what he believed was a better deal for himself with another venue and decided to move our event there. I thought then, and am now convinced, that leaving Scores was a big mistake and decided to stay.
So now he runs his Lounge event in a tiny space on the 2nd floor of another strip club and I am continuing to operate The Lido Room at Scores.
Some of the girls followed Joe and some stayed with me. Although every week more are coming back to The Lido Room.
Why are they coming back? Well, it appears that most of his customers would rather hang out downstairs (where his girls can't go) rather than stay in his cramped space with the ambiance of a funeral parlor waiting room. Its much too small for any good sized bachelor party.
Or maybe its because a couple of weeks ago a dancer was drugged by one of his customers, overdosed and had to be carried out by paramedics. Luckily, I'm hearing that she recovered and is OK.
Yes, not all of the girls are "Lido girls", but many are (with more constantly being added) and you guys can pick from a wider variety and a much larger selection.
Obviously, I am biased and think our parties are far superior. But what can't be argued is that we have a much larger and roomier venue, far more girls to choose from, a much larger bar to easily get drinks from, free hors d'oeuvres & pizza, big screen TV's to watch the games, and currently we have free admission all night every night.
Ultimately, you guys will make your own decisions. Some will like Joe's party better and many will prefer mine. But these are the facts. Don't be fooled by the fake reviews.
Thank you for reading my side of the discussion.
