I just got an email that the Revel is closing after Labor Day weekend. A big long list of when everyone must be checked out and when cars need to be removed. They thanked everyone for their patronage. Even though I could see it coming, I still feel kind of sad. Except for The Escalators From Hell, I have very good memories of the Revel, two Eagles shows (second and first rows) and a Don Henley show (row six or something like that). It didn't say why it was closing, but the procedure to cash in chips after 9/15 made it sound like it was due to foreclosure...obviously whatever chapter means you close rather than have debt forgiven and still stay open.
Maybe someone else will buy it and make a go of it, although I believe this was the second set of owners.
