there are many clubs that leave everything to the bouncer's discretion. look at los angeles, miami, nyc, etc..
toronto gets one club like this and everyone cries. people just need to suck it up and realize that they are not the club's target clientel and move on. these are the people that want to be part of an "in" crowd but dont like to admit that they arent. i know that im not what TIL wants in their venue and i accept that. i prefer footwork on fridays anyway. |
Oh I agree 100% with you....that is why I haven't and won't go to TiL. I'm the exact income and age bracket that TiL wants however I know I don't fit their idea of a client....so I don't go. Personally, I don't care if they want to have certain rules in place because I'm not a huge fan of going out fridays and if I want to go out on a friday there are enough clubs to choose from that will play the music I love.....Purple Room baby yeah |

I personally like TIL because it's the one club where my guy didn't mind going on an EDM night. Usually in his opinion all he sees is a sausage fest with sweaty, nasty guys without their shirts on dancing and a bunch of cracked out ppl. Also the way people dress at EDM clubs is pathetic. He refuses to ever go to guv on sat (which is fine cuz i'll go with the girls). Since we do tend to travel quite a bit and have gone to clubs in Miami/NYC/Vegas he does tend to compare to those clubs and Toronto's just usually don't compare. For me at least the experience/atmosphere at TIL comes semi-close than most of the other clubs in t.o.
I obviously love EDM music and love getting dressed up so this club definitely is a bonus! Also, my experience with the bouncers has been pretty good. One night I didn't expect to be at TIL and they asked if I was on guestlist and I basically said I wasn't "this week" and they let me in. Then again it's all about confidence with bouncers...I have never had to really stand in line anywhere whether it be in Miami or Vegas...just be nice and talk to them. They are people after all too. :) |

You all try to imply that the owners and managers don't know how the bouncers act. They're the storefront of the management, and control who comes in the club, which is ultimately what the mgmt wants. Don't think for one minute that the owners don't specify exactly who they want inside. Door people like that are not easy to come by, and don't think you'll see them gone any time soon.
I haven't been to TIL in a couple years, but know that it's more lenient than it has been known to be on a typical Saturday night. This isn't a new thing, except you want to go there now. TIL has had a pretentious crowd for its entire existence.
Also, think for a minute that these DJs also take into consideration where they're playing and who they're playing in front of. I'm quite certain that they occasionally want to spin in front of a good-looking and stylish upscale crowd.
Most of the people who didn't get in are those who tried to walk the tightrope, wearing oversized clothes, a backup pair of shoes that they would rather wear than ones they knew would be acceptable, going with a crowd of guys. You thought for hours before you went to the club what you needed to do, and eventually decided what you were going to do, and lost the battle. The jumping age bar kinda sucked for some of you, but if it's 21+, it's 21+. What did you guys do when you were 18 and wanted to go to Guv? You found a way to get in, right? Well, find a way to get into TIL. It's not going to seem like System or Boa, and not even so much like The Drink. |

i dont think YOU see the point.
it has always been about the "in" crowd and the "in" place to go.
soho fridays is still in its baby stages and is considered to be one of toronto's friday night hotspots. people want to go where everyone else goes... therefore the "in" crowd and "in" venue. |

Anyone that has lined up for space miami can attest to this one
Bouncers regularly allow people in who slip them a $100 bill before they let in people with pre purchased tickets, they abuse everyone , DJ's , other club staff , VIP's , they don't care , but people still line up all night and its still packed |

ummm so because say a DJ that I really wanna see happens to show up in toronto goes to play at TIL, that obviously means that I want to be part of the "in" crowd....riiiight.....ma bad |
