Dont get me wrong.....we were definately there for the music haha...never miss Scumfrog when he's in town. Just figured we'd grab a booth as most of us would have spent way more cash if we hadn't ....
It seems like its just this one dude at the door that is ty....why not just have the club deal with him? |

Oh dude - i wasn't implying that you werent there for the music, i just feel it shouldn't be necessary for one to have to get a booth in order to be treated fairly. |

I had a funny feeling about the entry process after the DD party and franky am not surprised about the reports from the Scumfrog/Cevin party. At DD I witnessed:
- (Too) many people giving payola to the bouncers to jump the queue.
- Guestlist line moving slower than regular line.
- Bouncers' seemingly arbitrary decisions about clothing.
- Lack of ID check.
- Lack of search. |

Agreed 100%
forgot to mention that when we reserved our booth we were told that our cover would be comped, however when we arrived they told us that we would all need to pay a "reduced" price.... between Ally and JP they got it sorted out for me and my group was all let in for free......not sure why there was confusion, could be just these "front door" staff.....seems pretty fishy to me that all of these people who are told they are on a list by promoters, djs, management, etc....and then being told by the door staff that they aren't?????
hopefully all of these issues will be resolved....only two weeks into the new night and there is definately alot of potential with this place.....hopefully a few jackasses wont ruin it for everyone. |

This is horrible.
I love the layout of this club. It has the potential to be one of the best places but alas, by the second week, it's already losing the battle and only based on staff.
You all remember when we first went to Boa on Spadina and everyone was saying such great things about the staff (it was true, it was the best staff in Toronto).
Unfortunately, it's not only the space that makes a club, it's who works there too.
I'm gonna miss those washrooms. |

Its 100% up to the club what kind of dress code they want to enforce (if any) and I dont see why a "dress code" and "after hours" cant mix......
The problem here isn't the fact that there is a "dress code" it's that the door staff aren't consistant in what they are enforcing....
completely unfair the the customer. |

haha i know man....
again, you dont have to wear "dress shoes" the club just needs to be consistant with what they are allowing...
I dont even think I own "dress shoes" if i do....i have NO IDEA where the EFF they are.... |

This cannot be emphasized enough. People spend money at clubs so that they can have an entertaining experience. Getting a staff member screaming in your face when you're trying to pay for the service you're about to receive is not entertaining. Having an experience like that before even entering the club is surely going to put a bad taste in someone's mouth which could quite possibly taint the experience of the whole night. When that person feels like going to a night club again, why are they going to choose the place that showed them such a total lack of respect?
If TiL's owners want to make money, they have to make sure their security staff, and especially their door staff don't have the attitude that we are "priveleged" to be in their club. There are many other clubs to choose from, and we will gladly spend our money elsewhere if we are shown this kind of attitude.
Get your act together TiL. |
