Gotham/Kevin Spacey Meditate at Buddha Bar

Kevin Spacey sips Jack and Cokes in the shadow of a massiva brass Buddha while electronic music thumps on and on in the background. Sound like some opium-fueled daydream? Close, but not quite. The evening - hosted by Gotham and Hamptons magazines in honor of Mr. Spacey agreeing to appear on the new Gotham cover - pushed the loungey, dimly lit seductiveness of Meatpacking's Buddha Bar (17 Little West 12th St.) to a new level on Monday night, where hundreds of the magazines'/Spacey's biggest fans rotated in and out of the epic warehouse space to fete for the sole purpose of fete-ing.

But perhaps more impressive than the celebrity quotient within the four hallowed walls is Gotham/Hampton's social ubiquity, given the group's ability to host multiple parties every week, to great effect. How do they do it?

"It's all about vertical integration," says CEO of Niche Media - Gotham's publisher - and party maestro. "It's knowing what our consumers want."

Apparently, their consumers want to party, and party they will - thrice weekly, if Binn has anything to do with it.

We'll see you again on Wednesday night...and this Saturday in Southhampton for the annual Memorial Day Hamptons summer kickoff party.
