Noise complaints, drug arrests and the occasional "melee" have dispatched Bangor police to the Diamonds Gentleman's Club and Half Acre Nightclub (right), both at 190 Harlow St., more than 50 times in the last four months, according to the Bangor Daily News. A large part of the problem seems to be that "patrons have to be out of both clubs by 1:30 a.m., which can send up to 300 intoxicated people into the parking lot at once." Club owners have promised to work with the city on a solution. [BDN]
