Mainly due to lack of competition, of course: the place still has its flaws, including insanely high drink prices (10 euros for drinks that are very small and contain little alcohol) and that the French don't let loose as much in clubs as Americans or Brits do; they're there to dance with their friends, many spend most of the evening facing the DJ, and the number of people with shirts off usually isn't even as big as the number of people wearing ties or other semi-formal wear.
But last night with Tracy Young at the controls, everything went pretty much as described in October, except that the ratio of straight to gay people was much higher, say 30% apparently straight.
And my guests, veterans of the New York scene, agreed: there is nothing like this there anymore. Not even close.
