wow.... possibly the WORST NIGHT EVER.
compliments of Webster Hall..... i dont know if its because im not exactly the BIGGEST 18 y/o (i look none older or younger than 18 i guess), or because i was on line by myself, but yea... the bouncers/guestlist ppl at Webster Hall ruined my night. so, let me start from the beginning....
....i was supposed to meet with one of the ppl in charge of Tranzworld Fridays, giving him my demo and to say whats up, we already established this would happen, so i decided, hmmm.. lemme go a little bit earlier so as not to catch him at a horrible time while everythings hectic. so, i told the other 20 ppl in my group that i was oing early and they said ok, they were gunna be there an hour or an hour and a half after i got there at like 1130. so, i get on line (lemme tell u what i was wearing, just to give u a context on how ridiculous the situation ends up).... so im wearing a black Banana republic button down shirt, grey, sort of pinstripe pants from H&M, and some black shoes from Puma's sister company in Europe, GOLA (very similar to Pumas, if not, classier, and less athletic). ok, so i get to the front of the line, im ready to get in so i could hear "this is derb.... this is the sound of TODAY".... the woman checking IDs looks at me, and says "are you by yourself"... i said "yea, now i am, but its my friends bday, and im meeting a group of like 20 that are coming later, but im the earliest one in the group so i mite as well go in. then, she looks at me, and says "there are no sneaekers allowed in the club". that was the last thing i expected to hear at Webster Hall, considering the bloke in front of me that just got in had Air Force Ones, and the bloke behind me was wearing some Pumas, and im wearing Golas. so i say "im sorry, but that dude just got in with those shoes" and i pointed, she says "no, sorry... no sneakers in the club".... now, before i go on and u think im just bitching, lemme say this.... the people on line looked like the line from Reggaeton Saturdays @ Exit, there was no indication of a Tranzworld Friday taking place on the main floor... as a matter of fact, the overhead sign for WH says only "Friday Amateur Burlesque, Win 500$", as if Derb were gunna be there every Friday and the Amateur Burlesque was a once a year thing. so, like i said, im the ONLY one that actually looked like nething resembling a typical house or trance music loving clubber. but whatever, i decided not to make matters worse so i said FUCK THIS, this isnt STUDIO 54, theres not 10,000 ppl aching to get in there, but whatever, i wont make a scene... so i bounce and i get a call JUST as shes handing my ID back. my boy's car just got stolen with 100$ worth of shrooms, hes freaking out, his dealer wont understand.... so, im so involved in helping my boy on the phone, god knows where i put my ID, i wasnt paying attention at all.... so, whatever, i said id help him tomorrow, but i wanted to get my club on, so i go to Spirit, wait on line, almost get in, until the dude checking IDs comes around, to which i open my wallet and realize ITS NOT IN THERE.... i look in my 3243 pockets in my jacket, my pants, my backpockets, everywhere.... so i thought, maybe the chick at WH didnt let me in because she thought my ID was fake and she kept it and i didnt realize it because of my friends' crises? so i go back to Webster Hall, im a block away when i was going through my 10th search of my wallet and then found some pocket in my wallet THAT I NEVER EVER USE NOR WILL I EVER USE.... i totally didnt even realize i put my ID in there. so, i just decided to go home, before i got hit by a bus or something, because it wasnt my day... and a message to Webster Hall TW Fridays... cmon, this isnt DJ Kazzanova spinni nthe best in reggaeton and hip hop on main floor.... its Hennes and Cold who havent been to the city in how many years? Tranzworld Fridays is new, and im willing to give it another 1 or 2 chances, but if ur trying to promote a trance weekly, dont NOT let in the one single person on the line that looks like he is a trance fan, its like ur trying to not make a good name for it. cmon.
...i will give it another chance though.

Sorry they ruined your night, man, but now maybe you see a little bit of why WH sucks and the crowd sucks. Although I'm sure a stupid door policy happens almost everywhere somtimes.
they probably saw the 18 year old who they wouldnt get any money from drinks on, so it didnt hurt for them to say my Gola's werent good enough, but the 21 year old Big Pun lookalike's Air Force Ones were.... whatever, thats how life is sometimes, next time (as long as its nothing less than a superstar trance DJ), ill make sure i go with the 20 ppl in my group, instead of meeting them inside. but either way, it looked like a line outside for Copa Cabana, not TRANZWORLD FRIDAYS.
I remember not being allowed into Glow @ Fur for Marco V night b/c I was wearing a pair of GOLA's. Now, I knew from the beginning that Fur was some wannabe upscale venue, but their dress code says "dress to impress." While my shirt and jeans were Diesel, the thug ass bitch working the door was like "naw 'lil hommie, u need to cop u sum dress shoes, cuz dat shit is whack." Anyone who's ever worn GOLA's KNOWS that they aren't whack or even considered sneakers. I would classify them as trendy shoes. Fortunately I was able to salvage the night b/c a promoter hooked me up w/ black pair of Kenneth Coles. Then the thug bitch was like, "now das hot." I swear I wanted to stab him...
