It's not that I can't tell the difference but with a "greyarea", not black/white policy like that, they run the risk of coming off too snobby and inclusive, which sounds like the opposite of their credo. I've seen guido-looking dudes at BlkMarket parties with REALLY hot girls having a really good time. You can't automatically assume they're causing trouble based on how they're dressed. That's what bottle service clubs do, and that's how you lose some potentially BIG bar-tabs and money that the club will have to run itself with. I've also seen hipster European dudes with their shirts off at their parties too. Not to mention, everytime I go to Pacha, a black dude grabs my girl's ass. We can't just ban black people because of that? There's no single rule you can implement that'll effectively "sculpt" the demographic in any positive way without pissing off a lot of people. Just my two cents!

I don't think he is saying to ban ppl from coming into the club but jesus... even Burger King has a 'no shirt no shoes no service' policy.
well, i don't wanna speak for ppl - but that Pacha shit is ridiculous. Don't take off your shirt in the club exposing your man titty's and/or wife beater

Well yeah, no taking off the shirt is an obvious small rule that can be implemented. I was responding to his suggestion that they should run a tight door. Half of the people on this board have bitched at Pacha or Crobar or Webster Hall at some point in the past 4 years because of a night they had a "strict door" (Big Mike, Get Nyce, etc.).. It would be a disaster to techno and house fans if there's a strict dress code. And there doesn't seem to be any indication that that's happening, so I'm happy!

I'm not saying there should be a tight door. I'm saying the obvious guido douchebags should be directed towards Pacha. Very simple concept.

That could definitely be implemented but most of these guys take of their shirts after they get in the club. Then they have to hire security whose sole job is to make sure guys don't take their shirts off.

funny guy lol
i like breaking their chops, as well as all the gweedos and cracked out messes
imo d36 should try and run not too strict of a door but as long as you look "presentable" and come their lookin to hear music you should be allowed in
and it shouldnt stop there, bouncers inside should regulate on people for drugs big time

its all about people who love it for the music to just support it, and not let it get taken over by the usual suspects. Thats the problem with Pacha its already taken over - it is what it is at this point. As long as real heads support D36 and go...we cant ever rely on bouncers.

Pete - If you see this and post it on facebook I will hate you forever. I'm probably making a huge mistake letting this out on TA for the world to see. but I guess its my own fault. But as per the topic... If you cant do this in District 36, then fuck it, I ain't going Posted by pyro264jb on Sep-01-2010 13:00:

I'm hoping the line up's are well rounded. Not just house and techno.
I worked hand in hand with Nick ac at arc to assist with the programming of Friday nights. If district is looking to emulate the experience arc provided, chances are you wont be hearing much trance... at least in the beginning.
It took a while but I warmed Nick up to Joof(when he was at his peek), Hardwick, Bond, G&D.
Hopefully ATB and all of his cronies will keep spinning at Pacha and stay away from this club.

Reading these comments only reminds me of the salad door policy lol
"The Studio also had it own door policy, they wanted to get a perfect mix of people which actually meant that even celebrities was stopped at the door and didn't get in. This young guy, Marc Benecke ruled the door and was instructed by Steve to mix a perfect salad every night. That way it didn't really matter if you were famous or not - you just had to fit it at this time.
The doorman Marc even became more famous to the guests of the 54 than Ian Schrager. Steve was also often in the entrance selecting people to let in and it's said that Steve once didn't like the shirt a guy was wearing. He told the guy he wouldn't get in with that shirt on, the guy asked if he could get in if he took it off. Steve said yes and the guy took it off and was allowed to enter the club, bare-chested.
So it was basically just a question of matching what Steve and Marc were looking for to add to their salad for the night.
Some people tried desperately to get in and there's actually another true story about this guy who got stuck in the air duct in his attempt to enter the club - one way or another... I asked Paolo about the 'salad' door policy and as he says; "It's what made the club so popular. Working there meant I had no worries, and it made me feel special at the time."
Not matching the 'salad of the day' was what happened to Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards of Chic, when the guys were contacted by Grace Jones who wanted to work with them for her next album...
Grace invited them as her guests to her gig down at the Studio 54. It was New Years Eve in 1977, the guys were all dressed up and it was snowing and freezing cold... When Nile and Bernard got to the club the doormen couldn't find their names on the guest list. Nile and Bernard explained that they "were" Chic and that Grace was expecting them. But the doormen just wouldn't let them in...
In anger they went back home to Nile and in just 25-30 minutes they wrote a whole song they called "Fuck off". It went like this... "aaahh Fuck off". They just know this was a hit song and they (of course) had to change the title to be able to release it. So they changed the text and that line to "aaahh Freak out" and their biggest hit was a fact - "Le Freak". The song topped the US charts for 6 weeks and "Le Freak" became Atlantic Records biggest selling single ever. It also became the 3'rd biggest single in the music history. It's still the most sold record ever in Canada and the single sold over 6 million copies only in the US. But after 6 million copies sold of the single, Nile and Bernard choose to stop the single to not have it cut down the album sales. Who knows how big it would have become if they hadn't stopped it!?
