THANK YOU VRK!!!!!!!!!!!
starting my "clubbing career" in toronto, I loved the Guv. I thought moving to a huge city like New York was going to further my love for clubbing.
ha! The clubs here SUCK, and when people bitch about the Guv I have to laugh because you guys dont even realize how lucky you are. I wish I could go back!! (for the clubs....nyc is great otherwise!!)

I think that people should be thankful to have a world class venue such as the guv to party at...even if it's not your thing, the guvernment is an amazing venue and deserves the credit/recognition....and i don't know how anyone can bitch at the talent that is booked there...
some people will never be happy...

lol
So what you're saying is, if a customer is not happy with something a business is currently offering he should
a) shut up and accept what's available
or
b) start his own business and offer it to himself
?
I'm pretty sure...
c) voice preferences so that maybe the business in question will one day have an offering to fill that demand
...is the most realistic option here.

Stereo should be in there.
Solid list though, although Fabric being #1 is a bit off for me; it was pretty amazing, but it's not better than Guv in terms of what I look at for a club.

a business cannot keep EVERYONE happy....
its almost like djs. they play for the majority of the crowd and cannot expect to please everyone. if i wasnt happy with the product that one store had to offer i would shop somewhere else. i wouldnt sit around and bitch about how that store is shit and wait (and hope) that the store will stock that product in the future. its pointless.

I already tried. I had everything ready to go then the Docks pulled out last min because they didn't want to step on the guvs toes which is bull shit. So unless you know of a better venue that will actually compete then I really cant do anything but write this.

Sorry Jay but unless you actually know what was done you shouldn't be talking. Have you been to any of those so called top 10 clubs out there to even voice your opinion?

Space and Amnesia were good but The Guv just feels right.

Space was too small in my opinion, Amnesia was just amazing. It feels right because its home, nothing will ever be better than the feeling of being comfortable in your own city.
