Back on Thursday, Page Six reported that Club Cumming on Sixth Street was under investigation by the State Liquor Authority for its live music programing ... which was happening without a live music permit.
This is part of what an SLA rep told Page Six: "The SLA opened an investigation after receiving complaints from the local Community Board that the licensee was not complying and charged the bar with failure to conform on February 23, 2018. Club Cumming can submit an application to change their method of operation to allow for live music/DJs."
In a statement to Page Six, CC partner Daniel Nardicio acknowledged the error, chalking it up to a "rookie mistake" on the SLA paperwork.
At the start of the weekend, the bar-cabaret between Avenue A and Avenue B announced it was temporarily suspending its live music and DJs until the issue was sorted out...
The bar owners, including actor-author (and East Village resident) Alan Cumming, are currently collecting signatures in support of the updated license with the SLA.
Club Cumming opened last September in the former Eastern Bloc space. Since then, the CC's small curtained stage with a piano has hosted to a number of events, including a variety show featuring Amanda Lepore ... a piano night in which Paul McCartney and Emma Stone stopped by and sang a song from "The Little Mermaid" and a birthday tribute to Liza Minnelli...

Thank you!! This is my favorite spot in the neighborhood and they've never had even a single noise complaint. I hope everyone will pop in there and sign the petition.
Not True! 311 is on speed dial in 505 and 503 so that tenants can make noise complaints. Do you know why? BECAUSE THE MUSIC IS SO LOUD the proprietors do not hear the phone. A couple had to move out because the noise was untenable. If you can hear the DJ music on the street, can you imagine what it sounds like thundering through the floors of a 100 year old tenement? Live cabaret is one thing, dance party is another.
