Maisonette 9: Difference between revisions

'''Maisonette 9''' is a "members only [[nightclub]]" in [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]] in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], [[The Lost and Damned]], and [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]]. The nightclub is most likely inspired by a real bar in New York City called [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bungalow_8 Bungalow 8]; the owner of that club, Amy Sacco, does very brief voice work on the in-game radio, as a budding club owner named [[Larissa Slalom]] who calls Gay Tony a loser.

The club is located on Galveston Ave, Westminster

You can acces to the club with the Hematite J/A station or the Frankfort K/C station

The club itself is referenced occasionally in GTA IV, as in the case in "[[Out of the Closet]]" when [[Tom Rivas]] mentions the club and [[Hercules]], another club owned by [[Gay Tony]]. Other characters from GTA IV are also known to have frequented the club, including [[Gracie Ancelotti]] (as revealed during "[[...I'll Take Her]]"),[[Alexandra Chilton]] and [[Carmen Ortiz]] (Carmen refers to the club as "Bungalow 9") in dialogues during dates with Niko. The club is later reported by the [[Libertytreeonline.com]] to be closed alongside Hercules following allegations of drug pushing in the premises. Both in GTA IV and The Lost and Damned, the club is inaccessible until The Ballad of Gay Tony.

According to The Ballad of Gay Tony's official website, Maisonette 9 was founded in 2003 by "Gay" Tony Prince, and, as indicated in The Ballad of Gay Tony, has been designed to face Galveston Avenue, at the [[Westminster]]—[[The Meat Quarter|Meat Quarter]] border, in the basement levels of a warehouse-turned loft. The club itself only exists physically in The Ballad of Gay Tony, whereas the same location in GTA IV and The Lost and Damned is nondescript, with no hints of the club's existance. Maisonette 9 is supposedly one of Liberty City's hottest nightclubs, where [[Luis Fernando Lopez]] serves as a bouncer and personal bodyguard to the club owner. Other Maisonette 9 clubs are currently operating in [[London]] and [[Las Venturas]].[[File:2812.png|thumb|Club interior]]

As Luis works in Maisonette 9 as a bouncer, the player can access the club and interact with its patrons. Luis can [[Rhythm-based Minigames|dance]], compete in a champagne drinking game, drink shots or [[Club Management|manage the club]]. Maisonette 9 also serves as mission destination points. In the near final storyline in The Ballad of Gay Tony, the club is later closed by the city but was re-bought by [[Yusuf Amir]] in the later storyline.

#[[Luis Lopez]] - (Head of Security / Co-Owner)

*Security

If you go to see Joni in the security room, you could try the [[Club Management]] sidemission. Your objective is to watch if everything is OK during the night, and kicking out any idiots or people causing trouble. At the end of [[Club Management]], you will receive a call from [[Gay Tony]] asking that you run an errand for a celebrity.

*On Integrity 2.0, [[Lazlow]] and his sidekick, Jorge try to get into Maisonette 9, but Dessie stops them. A woman then suggests they go to [[Bahama Mamas]], and later the two end up at Hercules, thinking the club is full of women due to the long line of men outside (unaware it's a gay club).
