Oh heaven forbid someone might complain to the authorities that they paid $20 to be crammed into a building that was completely unsafe! Nobody's CRYING, they're just tired of the same old laissez-faire attitude to things.

Sheesh... I can see why you might be slightly worried that the club could be shut down for those kinds of reasons just like some others were in the US, but it doesn't seem like Charles is too worried now does it?

Besides, they're not gonna shut the place down, not with the kind of tourism it brings in. But if people start complaining about it being unsafe, he might have to make some changes, which is exactly what people are after here.

I'm dead serious and I hope you mean that this issue and the complaining is pathetic and not my post (otherwise F U 2 j/k). Seriously, I'm not trying to get on anyone's case...just pointing out (repeatedly, yes) that the complaining is USELESS. Ferry spins an 8 hour set and some people's reviews are "I had a shitty night because it was so packed". That's soooo disappointing for me to hear...

People piss and moan about how packed it is, how they can't dance, how unsafe it is...WAAAHHHHH...cry me a freakin' river. STFU and do something about it, that's all I'm saying here. Complaining on TA after every event definitely isn't going to do shit.

So we have a forum with hundreds of members, a large # of whom go to Guv on a regular basis. If TA organized itself and sent a collective note to Charles, maybe he'd listen...if he doesn't, then you can either put up with it, you can not go, or you can go to the authorities (and get run out of town when they shut the place down one night in the middle of a party, lol).

whatever...I don't even know why I care so much that so many people complain...I guess I'm mostly disappointed that a night of Ferry was overshadowed for so many people because of the crowd. I'll guess I'll just continue to go and enjoy my nights there. Sorry for suggesting that you guys try to actually DO something about an issue that clearly bothers you quite a bit.

I think many people here have forgotten about the 190 so victims that were burned alive in that club in Long Island.

And we cant forget that this was right after dozens were crushed to death by a stampede in a Chicago night club


Just imagine if a fire were to break out in the main room...

Are you kidding me man? What the hell for? Do you think the asshole is unaware that there's a firecode in the city to be followed? He perfectly knows what risks he's bearing, and the only way he gets away from it is probably by bribing someone bigtime (hey, in the end it's still worth it!). You might ask well, what about "last call" and 19+... I guess they don't let minors in just to keep the prestige of the club, and do they even follow last call?

I wouldn't believe that the people who run the club ever even show up in the main room. They're probably sitting somewhere in the VIP area, sipping on their martinis, talking business, you know, whose gotta be "shanked" tomorrow, while thinking "look at these kiddies having fun down there, thats some good cash were making" etc... People who own clubs are usually involved all kinds of dirty business - drugs, brothels, wringing money etc, it's pretty stupid to think that if you "ask them nicely" they'll actually do something about it. Best thing to do would be to write a petition to the fire departament, anyone up for that..............?


Thought so. Fuck that, it's not worth the hassle anyway, the best thing to do is just never go to that place again. And good luck to yall who had an amazing night and will continue attending "nights out at the guv"! In case a fire starts sometime, and cos of the place being overcrowded this forum ends up missing a few happy faces who got stampeded, I just might be the one laughing at your funeral (knock, knock, knock)

That's where you're dead wrong. Charles is always around and walking the main room - or even outside when its cold in the winter checking up on staff or what not. While I agree it was WAY TOO OVERCROWDED last week I will give him credit for not sitting around in "VIP" as you seem to think.

So many negative ppl on this site... i feel bad actually.. i thought saturdat nite was really fun. Ferry Corsten was AMAZING!!!

Yeah, it was crowded. Yeah, it was really hot. But honestly, who didn't think it would be? I havent been in the scence that long and even I knew it would be rammed, and that i should get there early to avoid long lineups n stuff. I personally, would much rather be in a pcked club, than in an empty one, it adds to atmosphere. I think there are much bigger problems than the guv being crowded lol

The best shows ive seen have been at guv (except for tiesto @ the docks ), and for that im greatful. Saturday nite was a great nite @ the guv for me and my friends. Hopefully there'll much more like em @ guv

what i meant was that there seems to be a whole lotta talk but no action. what's the point of constantly complaining without doing anything ..

I agree with this. I was at Armin in Cleveland a couple weeks ago and there was basically noone there. The whole night I was just wishing I was at Guv. Thats why its the best club in North America.
