to make a long story short... the bartender ripped me off and was too proud and/or insecure to own up to it. she swore at me, called me names and then tattled on me to the bouncer
then keith got the bouncer to let me back in... which was fine.. until he escorted me over to the bitchy bartender and asked for me to apologize! haha the nerve...
im sorry, but im not going to apologize for being ripped off, sworn at and treated like shit. she threw a hissy fit and wanted me gone, so i told the bouncer i would happily leave and that i would never spend money at an establishment that cheats their patrons and treats them with no respect.
it's a shame, because i'll never go back there. and by the looks of it they can't exactly afford to be kicking anyone out!
in the end i had a great time though... the drama was somewhat fun. i was happy with how maturely & calmly i handled the situation. she made herself look like a crazy insecure person, pretty embarrasing if you ask me! i'd like to see how they treat unruly drunks if this is how they treat sober reasonable people! hah.

Thanks to everyone for coming out last night. You guys all rock, the level of support was uncanny! It really means a lot to look up from playing and see a big group of TAs right up front dancing it up. I thought it was going to be quite the challenge to get people to come out on a Wednesday, but you all certainly proved me wrong. Thanks again!
And these are the full-size pics for anyone who wants 'em.

This is one of my faves:
The girl in this picture gave me her card to send the pictures to but I can't find it so if anyone knows who she is and whether she still wants them, let me know.
