| - I was really excited to check out one of the newest clubs to hit The Strip. Thanks to a friend, our guys didn't have to pay a ridiculously high cover to get in (only $25 with guestlist access). I've heard that prices can go as high as $50 - $80 a night. Entering the club was a complicated process though; we started off in a long guestlist line when our grouop, including 15 other people were led by a security guard around the Chandelier Bar and up the escalators to yet another line. After getting through that line, which started to feel like going through airport security, we were then led up a long flight of rickety stairs in some back woods part of the building. (Given the mixture of alcohol and high heels, this is a liability waiting to happen). By the time we reached a small doorway to enter the building, we already got quite a work out.
Entrance fiasco aside, the club is pretty cool. The sexy dark lighting, phrases like "You down with OPP?" lit up on the wall, and rooftop area is a great backdrop for a fun night out. There are two packed floors of music playing, with the hip hop room on the first floor crammed and much smaller than the upstairs trance/techno floor. I can't comment on how good the hip hop music was because we could barely breathe in that room long enough to hear a song. Grab a drink at the rooftop bar and you won't risk being trampled by the crowds. That is, if you can survive the flight going down the stairs.
