Don't Worry Amy Sacco, Vegas Tourists Are Easy

Down by the Hipster blog (Who are you? Where did you come from?) has a juicy scoop about Amy Sacco's nightclub deal for the Morgans Hotel Group, similar to Rande Gerber's deal with W Hotels. Apparently the woman behind some of NYC's exclusive nightspots (Bungalow 8 is one) is not doing so well in London at the St. Martins Lane hotel. DBTH reports:

A little international birdy (we are big overseas) tells us, "Bungalow in london is already open. What people didn't know about it was that it is part of a Morgan's deal. Interestingly, it hasn't really made a dent in the market. The private clubs are still hot, and Pangaea, Cuckoo Club and Boujis are still kicking Bungalow's ass."

Despite this seemingly initial failure, DBTH also reports that Amy Sacco will probably install a Bungalow 8 inside Morgans' new acquisition, the Hard Rock Las Vegas, as part of their top-to-bottom expansion plan. Now, we're not Vegas market analysts or anything but if you can get people to go to copycat versions of Forty Deuce, Coyote Ugly and Studio 54, you can certainly do it for Bungalow 8. Just invite Kevin Federline to the opening.
