No Ed Hardy, No Affliction, No Problem

March 6, 2010

One word: awesome.

Two words: awesome nasty.

It’s like a dream come true. A fantasy even.

Apparently, some nightlife genius in New Orleans decided he’d had enough of Ed Hardy and Affliction shirts and decided to do something about it.

“I was literally watching Jersey Shore at 4am,” says Nick Thomas, Director of Programming for Club Republic, ”and I thought, nothing would make me happier if not a single person dressed like this was in my club.

“Then I thought, why can’t that be the rule?”

Why not indeed.

This publication would like to express its wholehearted endorsement of Club Republic’s vanguard policy in the hopes that other purveyors of night life entertainment (read: all clubs everywhere) might follow in the pioneering footsteps of the shrewd Mr. Thomas.

“But Nick!” some might say, “What’s next to slide down your slippery slope of shunned style? Pencil thin beards and super-douchebag v-necks?”

Yes please.
