RIP

Incredibly sad news in today. Matt Bendik — an original partner in the late Mezze and Voyeur nightclub in West Hollywood, who also opened AV in Hollywood and was most recently installed at DBA (old Voyeur) — was found dead in a Philadelphia hotel room yesterday afternoon. Despite working in nightlife Bendik was not a known partier and law enforcement claim that no drugs were found in the room. Bendik was discovered face down in bed by a hotel maid. At this point the cause of death is unknown. [TMZ]
