What’s on 4 nights announced

Every announced night here that states a minimum age says 21+ — 4 of 4 state one. The biggest count ahead is 12 going, under the floor where "busiest" would mean anything — so no lead line above this list, and no week-on-week reading on the row. Counts are Resident Advisor's, relayed.

Fixed words, no estimates: every week is 4826, some weeks 9base beside them; a weekday with fewer than 8 listings is computed and then refused. Everything on these lines is the last twelve months, except who books it, which is the whole record.

Ordered by how much of either room's cast the two share, so the city's biggest room does not head every list.

Related means rooms this room's regulars also keep coming back to — not rooms that feel alike. A regular is somebody billed here on three nights or more.
