And 75% of the people there don't even know what day it is. Excessive drug use is more rampant at Guv than any other club in Toronto, IMO.

That, and the people can be quite rude. I've only found there to be any negligible "vibe" there one night (Ferry) - every other time I have gotten walked on, spilled on, bitched at, shoved, ignored by bartenders, etc. Why? See my previous point about rampant drug use!

Sorry to be negative, but those are the negative aspects of the Guv - everything else that's positive have already been said - and besides, the guy who asked originally already knows the good things about Guv, since he's planning on going there!

Originally posted by Durafei LOL I don't understand. What else should it be about? Guvernment a business, and a good one. Why should Guv change anything if there is a demand for their business.. Besides, if it wasn't about money, you wouldn't see the likes of Tiesto, Armin, Ferry or others at Guvernment.

hummm yah i do not know, they need to balance it out, some how. hehehe, though i can understand why the run it the way they do, it is all about the $$$

I just watch those club parties in Europe and they look like they are having a blast, at the guv people do not look like that for some reason.

But yah the Guv is a nice club i think, the design is very good, similar to the clubs in Brazil, though the music is better here then there.

hhehe if this does not make sense, i have a econ exam tommrow, and i am kinda stressed out.

so wish me luck hehe

PS, yah it does have a drug problem, i had a headache when i went after all the marijuana smoke.

g'luck, i have a java exam tomorrow, which is gonna be my hardest one... hoping to pass, nothing else

You're completely right in the fact that Guv is a business - they learned from Labor of Love that they cannot be completely unforgiving when it comes to making money though.

The problem with Guv - but yet the reason why it keeps doing so well - is that it caters to the cracked-out crowd who go there because it's Guv, it's something to do, somewhere to get high on a Saturday night. That crowd will ALWAYS exist....so while the music comes and goes, the patrons get older and wise up (some!), the audience that Guv targets will always be around, because as the older generation grows out of its habits, a new one will develop.

make sure you wear a really tight shirt and pants, oh and make sure work out before you go lol j/j

Btw, you have to understand that clubs in Europe are JUST as packed. I've been to Amnesia in Ibiza this summer. The club was just as packed, and they charged 50 euros to get in. As far as I know Gatecrasher is the same story... So.. have to be grateful for having club such as Guvernment, which brings amazing talent and cover is next to nothing !

1) Do about 50 push ups and 50 sit ups
2) Get out canola cooking oil and rub yourself down
3) Go to the club
4) Take your shirt off
5) Walk around like you are mad ass hell
6) Rub up on everyone cause they want to feel how tough you are
7) Do the Gino/Muscle head dance. (Wiggle your hips from side to side, and make a motion as if you are punching some one in the gut with both hands)**Repeat as needed**

You should have no problem fitting in.

OR

You can take a pill and go sit in front of the speaker with the 40 year old Asians and swing your head with great force from side to side while closing your eyes and bumping into everyone with no disregard for others.

Sorry I am not a fan of Guverment, consider it a warning.....

That's cool because it's the only club next to Viva or System Soundbar that drops the music we like to hear. I'm not a huge fan of the stuff you just mentioned either but I go regardless. I just hang out with TONS of friends and enjoy the tunes, that's why I go back.

Frankly I don't care what club big names play....I hear a big name is coming to town....I'll go see him or her. The club means nothing to me and when John Digweed came to play here (koolhaus in nov)....1500 tickets....lots of dancing space...funtime.
