A Changing Cain
While the rumors of Cain's demise proved to be false, the planned renovations are well underway. It seems that when the Jamie, Jayma and the team couldn't lock down a new space further downtown to relocate, they embarked upon a plan to differentiate themselves from the rest of the Chelsea wanna-be's. Time for the details, with a Little Birdy writing:
Cain has a new creative director with a lot in store for when Cain re-opens on October 29th. As far as the renovation of the venue, the rock that was the DJ booth has been broken into pieces and removed. The room is now one level and the tables are now slightly larger and a tad more spread out giving more room for girls to dance on tables. Cain will remain open Wednesday through Saturday, with a different theme for each night. While nothing is official yet, the grand re-opening will be nothing less than extravagant with a big name performance and a unique theme. Expect to be in wowed and surprised... While Cain was looking to move downtown they have changed their tune a bit and plan to see where their current venue goes, while also branching into other outlets abroad and pushing their brand.
What we like about this plan is manner in which Cain surveyed the current landscape and took advantage of an opportunity. As they tired of being lumped in with the Jon B's and JE's of the world, a plot was hacthed to make their escape to greener pastures. But when nothing materialized, Cain took advantage of the space they controlled and decided to invest within. That's change you need and change you can believe in.

who's the new creative director and what happened to steve kasuba
My friends, only John McCain can bring true change to Cain
steve kasuba was let go
Steve Kasuba quit. And Steve Kasuba would like to know who James Goldman is and why he thinks he knows so much.
that sucks we liked steve kasuba
*tears* :(
what have they done!?
They couldn't sell the joint for the obscene asking price and their deal for the earth space never transpired. My sources tell me they tried to get a lot of spaces but, they needed to sell the current location to come up with the funds to purchase the new space. so, back to sqaure 1 and the best thing to do was to redo the space.
It looks like it will be a great spot again. there is really nothing good on the horizon although I hear a lot of very good names and events associated with Citrine.
Steve Kasuba rox. He was the best part of working at Cain. Wishing you well on your next moves man.
Jerold Limon is the new creative director
