Dime: Tell us about the nightlife in Charlotte.
Melvin: Charlotte, that's a tough one. [long pause] That's the hardest
question I've been asked all year. In Charlotte, you're stuck going to the
show and occasionally, I might go to a bar, but other than that, it pretty
much just slows everybody down. If I was back in L.A. I'd be at the Garden
of Eden or Snatch. In the first month of my rookie year [with the
Clippers],
I never went to the same club twice.
Dime: I was asking Melvin this question - clubs back in Charlotte?
Kareem: Oh, god! I've been out one time and I've been there for two and a
half months. It's garbage. Coming from L.A., I'm biased.
Dime: What are the spots in L.A.?
Kareem: Everywhere. I go to Snatch, Garden [of Eden], Prey. I mean,
there's
always something hot. Skybar, if you wanna relax and just chill, have a
drink. I do a little bit of everything. I'm a young guy, so I gotta get
out
there and have fun.
Dime: How about when you're visiting New York? Do you go out in the city?
Kareem: Yeah, we go to Marquee. Tao. That's probably my favorite
restaurant
around. I like Duvet, Suede, 40/40 Club. New York's a good place for nice
shops and walking around Central Park.
