EDGE RELAUNCH

26/01/12: There are few words in the English language that bring us round from a trashbag-induced blackout faster than “VIP relaunch”, and we’d been dying to take a look at the snazzy, newly refurbished Edge for weeks!

Sure, we’d been invited before, but as if I’m climbing stairs without the promise of a free drink at the top.

Champagne corks popped and canapés rolled out courtesy of a gorgeous man, who I really, really should have got the phone number of, but I decided to steal his tray of food instead, as a plethora of Soho elite, scene slebs, bar bitches, drag darlings and freeloading hacks (hey, that’s me) toasted the new look Edge.

We have to say, the place looks FAB! The guys have done an amazing job in what was already one of the nicer looking bars on our fair scene, but they’ve ramped it up a coupe of notches with deluxe, turquoise booths, modern décor, some gorgeous lighting touches (you known them queens need to be well lit, honey!) and a magnificent top floor, which, to my old stoner eyes, resembles a classier version of Jeannie’s lamp, still with the multicoloured dancefloor, thankfully.

Congrats to the crew at Edge Towers on a great job. We’ll hand over the last words to the fabulous Chad Sheldon, Group Operations Manager, who threw me out for being drunk and disorderly shortly after I got this quote…

“Judging by the number of people that were here to the bitter end it was a great success and was undoubtedly accompanied by a few sore heads in the morning!  Thank you to everyone that came along and supported The Edge, we really hope to see everyone again soon!”
