| - The Whiskey makes me feel uncomfortable. I've been to a lot of clubs and The Whiskey is no different. But there is something about the clientele and atmosphere that made me feel uncomfortable every time I went.
The Whiskey tries to be more exclusive than it really is. Not unusual for a nightclub, they have dress codes and policies that they use at their discretion. Some would argue that they abuse it, and that would be a fair assessment depending on the night you go. Clubs like this, like most in Calgary, have a vested interest in packing the club with women and lining up desperate men outside. It works, because if you don't get in that night, you really hope you get in the next night.
Lots of young women, lots of aggressive men, lots of alcohol; what could possibly go wrong? Maybe I'm getting old, but The Whiskey is really not for me. The music is usually pretty good, with lots of opportunities to dance. But aside from that, I never feel good there.
