Ayza - 11 West 31st Street, New York City

Given the weather we have had over the last couple of weeks, you could not ask for a better day. So make sure you get out and enjoy the sunshine and 40-degree weather, because it’s supposed to get ugly on Wednesday. Here is the Tuesday Nightlife Rundown for March 2, 2010.

Movie Premiere – “Brooklyn’s Finest” – 7pm - AMC Lincoln Center Theater – Can’t wait for the movie “Brooklyn’s Finest” to come out on Friday? Well, if you’re lucky and can conjure up a ticket from one of the many giveaways going on today, then you may be able to see the premiere of the movie at the AMC Lincoln Center Theater tonight. The movie features Don Cheadle, Ethan Hawke, Wesley Snipes and Richard Gere. They are all expected to be in attendance, so if you’re lucky enough to go, get us an autograph so I can appropriately turn it around and sell it.

American Idol Viewing Party – 8pm
Southern Hospitality (1460 2nd Avenue): If you are an American Idol fanatic, then perhaps you would enjoy some company while listening to the unearthed tunes of amateur singers performing to better their lives. Southern Hospitality wants you to join them as they watch the famed singing show with $3 shots, $4 Southern Hospitalities and a ton of other Idol fans. Most importantly, there will be a drawing for a 40-inch flat screen television.

Jay-Z Concert – 8pm
Madison Square Garden (7th Avenue & 32nd Street): Get out tonight and enjoy your boy Hova tonight as he takes on the crowd at Madison Square Garden—for the one-millionth time. He’s getting the crowd rocking starting at 8pm and you can still get decent tickets, so why not take advantage of it and make the best of a Tuesday night?

Luxurious Tuesdays – 5pm
Negril Village (70 West 3rd Street): This absolutely free event is one of the best afterwork parties in Manhattan. Negril Village not only has some of the best Caribbean food in New York City, but they are serving up music and dancing as well. Young, black professionals from all over the city show up to this event, dressed to impress and ready to have a heck of a time. There’s nothing but hip-hop, R&B, and reggae music on the speakers, as DJ Snap keeps the party lively all night long.

A-List Tuesdays – 10pm
Cain Luxe (544 27th Street): About $20 is the price of admission, but supposedly if you let them know you’re on the Keino guestlist, it should be free. That said, you ought to be prepared to pay the $20, but it will probably be worth it. Cain Luxe’s brings out one of the sexiest, young, black professional crowds you will find in New York City on a Tuesday night. This event is known for its live performances, as well as the slew of popular musicians that often frequent this club. So check it out, and get there early, because there is sure to be a long, long line.

Tuesday Girls Night Out – 7pm
Ayza Wine and Chocolate Bar (11 West 31st Street): Okay, ladies! Black Oak Nights is trying its damndest to look out for the single ladies, and here is one event we think you all will like. While the music the music selection at this wine bar may not exactly bring down the house, the rest of the atmosphere will be very supportive of a ladies night out. There will be plenty of single, professional women in the building, and all of them will be taking advantage of wine and chocolate specials. You can go to OpenTable.com and enter “Girls Night Out” to receiver a complimentary chocolate shot and a Belgian Chocolate Covered Strawberry.
