True story. It started with rejection. On a Saturday night in 1995, a young guy had just moved to New York. He tried to get into a club. He couldn’t. Unlike every other guy who got shot down by the bouncer, Andrew Fox decided to do something about it.

ClubNYC.com was born. Since then, it expanded into Clubplanet.com, helping over 2 million people—and counting—get past the velvet rope. One of the few dot-com survivors, Andrew started four companies including an Internet Service Provider, a web design firm, and a wireless communications company. After selling the other three, Andrew devoted himself to Clubplanet’s growth.

In 2004, Andrew co-founded The Management Group, LLC, which is the holding company for Clubplanet, Track Entertainment, Wantickets.com, NewYears.com, CoolJunkie.com, and other proprietary sites.

These days, he gets in any club he wants.

Dave McComb is like an action figure. He has a secret identity. By day, he’s Track’s Chief Information Officer, overseeing a tech team that maintains the IT infrastructure, builds websites, and supports client development projects. By night? He’s an old school clubbing legend, having co-founded Clubplanet.com along with Andrew Fox.

Dave launched his career on Wall Street at Goldman Sachs, before leaving to manage the IT infrastructure at InterWorld, a small NYC e-commerce company. He later founded a consulting business, owned an ISP and web design firm, and created the Clubplanet.com website.

He looks fabulous in a pimp costume.

It’s one thing to be an early starter. Alex Frias took it to a whole new level. At the age of 12—TWELVE, when most kids were egging houses--Alex launched his own sports magazine.

As Managing Director, Alex oversees the marketing, sales, business development, and all day-to-day operations of Clubplanet.com, nocheLatina.com, and NewYears.com. In 2005, Alex founded nocheLatina.com; conceptualizing and developing the Latin lifestyle website from birth.

A health nut, he has something like 0.00001% body fat. It comes at a price: two daily protein shakes.

Over a beer, ask Lee Heiman about partying with Bono. He’s got some good stories.

With three decades of experience managing, producing, and working with artists like U2, The B52s, Talking Heads, The Marshall Tucker Band, Sugar Ray, and everyone from Def Leppard to Michael Jackson, Lee Heiman has seen it all. The man knows music.

When he joined Track in 1989, his passion for music spread to marketing, production, and events—and fueled the company’s record growth. As the company’s President, Lee oversees all divisions, and also serves as the Executive Producer of all live events. In 2004, he co-founded The Management Group, LLC.

Fun tidbit: he got his start by forming the original Daryl Hall and John Oates fan club, selling their t-shirts on the road.

Barak Schurr founded Wantickets.com in 1999, turning it into the dominant online ticketing solution for the nightclub and nightlife industry. After working every job under the sun in Southern California, Barak currently runs the entire ticketing division of Track Entertainment, focusing on acquisitions of new accounts, opening up new markets across the world, and developing strategic nightlife partnerships.

Lisa Berlin is the glue that holds the company together. She’s like the mom. In a firm chock full of characters and entrepreneurs, she provides the steady hand that creates, builds, and nurtures relationships.

Lisa is the Senior Vice President of Track Entertainment, in charge of all new business, corporate relationships, and key client acquisitions. Before joining Track, Lisa worked as account executive at several New York-based ad agencies.

But even Lisa has her skeletons. Quick confession: When she was 11, she was selected to dance in a spoof video of Saturday Night Fever.
