Then how did YOU get in? You said it yourself how you came late, unless you know the promotors/bouncers or greased them.
Well, they musta had like 10-15 ppl leave the club during the time I was there but they still barely let anyone in in the line, unless it was over capacitated. You'd think that if 10 ppl leave, then 10 can get in but no. But I doubt thaat it was overcapacitated, because some people still managed (getting in front of me somehow) to get in with some ticket nonsense (can anyone explain this?) but I pretty much stopped caring at that point. They just became selective with who gets in and who doesn't when I was there and it was retarded for $30 cover. They still run this place like any other club, and you think they wouldn't because of the music that's being played.
I know you guys all love this club and so do I because of all the DJs they've booked over time and still continue to book, but I'm just sorta frustrated with how they were doing things. I was curious to hear Lee Foss play. I can take solace in the fact that he played an alright set and not some amazing set and that it might have not been worth it anyway due to how rammed it was. Anyway, lesson learned, I'm just venting. Happy to see you guys managed to check him out |

Yes, it was probably over-capacity ("overcapacitated", lol). Therefore, no, they're not going to let 10 people in just because 10 people leave. You got there late and the club is small, it's becoming a fairly regular occurrence that the Footwork line stops moving between 12:30 and 1:00, and no one gets in until well past last call. Obviously, some people "in the know" are going to get to line-jump. Either they had some tickets that allowed them to skip the line, or they know people that you don't, get over it. |

There were over 1000 people on Guestlist.
Capacity is around 1/3 of that.
Easy math. |
