If your crying about 20 bucks, then how much do you spend while your in there? 10 bucks? In other words, your either broke or a cheap ass.
How about this, if 20 bucks is that much of a dent in your pocket, i'll give you 20 bucks next time so you can skip the line. | You need to get out more. I wouldn't pay $20 cover for any club in Vancouver after you've been to clubs like in Seattle, SF, LA, and especially Vegas. The clubs in the US makes the Vancouver scene look pathetic.

But why the fuck would I want to pay off the bouncer to skip a line when there's not even suppose to be a line. When you get into the club w/lines they are usually not even half full.

i cant speak for everyone on here, but when i complained about the pricing above, it was more about the principle of paying for more than you are getting. I am not broke, and i definately do not consider myself cheap.
as for paying $20 to get in.. sure its not a lot when you are on your own trying to meet up with people already inside... but when you are with a group.. and 20 each turns into 100+ to get in.. thats alot of potential drinks that could have been bought... or atleast several pitchers and a couple plates of fries at cafe crepe  | |

If you're lucky, try and catch the promoters outside of the club earlier in the day. Some will be handing out passes/free cover for that particular night.

Yeah....you can score VIP passes pretty easily in Vegas if you walk around the strip or even before the club opens just outside the hotel. Just dont get it from the people that charge you for the passes. Some of them just want a tip. Which isnt bad because they hook you up with VIP passes to a bunch of clubs.

You go to other clubs, people are there to have fun, even for the people that are trying to get ass, both men and women enjoy the game, here in Vancouver...you'll just get the cold shoulder if you even tap on their shoulder and tell them they dropped something. | going for the atmosphere and fun = win. having a couple drinks and loosening up, then being on the dance floor given 'er is the best. the girls that dress like hoes for the attention and the guys who are just looking for fights start to ruin it.
when the bouncer goes beyond patting you down is wierd as fuck too

I WISH!
The whole $30 to get in is dumb too. A while back I was thinking of heading to Ibiza. Looking at prices for a couple bucks more than what you pay out here you get into a better club with 3 or 4 world class dj's playing.
Right now they should be lowering prices and drink prices. All the clubs are moving over to barwatch which means no gangsters. Those are the people that will be spending money. The people running the clubs see that less people are coming out so instead of lowering prices they keep raising prices.
I know a couple of bartenders and all of them say they are making like half as much money as they used to.

My buddy and I were in Portland for a night and went clubbing, we ended up picking up 2 groups of chicks without buying any alcohol. 1 group was 3 nammers and the other were 2 white chicks (Hooter girls to boot as well)
Sure they were american girls, but lets face it, with the snobby ass girls here, we'd be hard press to pick up 5 girls in 1 wknd of clubbing let alone 1 night.
