Bouncers in Dublin

Pharrell · 03-07-2008 2:32pm #1

Anyone ever have a problem getting in a club, I have tried a few times and been stopped by the same bouncer every time even when all the others bouncers are letting me in, He keeps saying not tonight, regulars only and private party ****. I don’t try anymore because of this fella.

I never have any problems getting into other clubs & bars I try except this place

Any ideas?

Wearing runners?

Report him to his superiors, f*ckin bouncers on a power trip p*ss me off...

"regulars only" or "I dont know your face" annoys the crap outta me. luckily I dont get rufused very often so alls good!

Bouncers are in general insecure machismo types that have very poor social skills!! That said, whilst i do personally know a lot like that, others are top blokes so its not really fair to paint them all with the same stick.

no runners, dressed normally

Don't go there? Why would you want to go somewhere that you're not welcome?

Haven't had a problem in years, it's easy enough to get into most clubs once you put the effort in.
As neil1984 said, there's a lot of really sound guys out there.

i have stopped trying as i get in everywhere else no problem, just wondering has it happened anyone else!!!

Please don't name the club.

This has been done several times before.

Aggrieved potential customers will moan about thick bouncers, current or former bouncers will argue that not all of them are stupid, there'll be a back and forth and eventually the thread will die out...

take yourself and youre money elsewhere.

Ah, we haven't had a good old bouncer thread in a while.

I've never understood the randomness of it. There's like no rhyme or reason to why you get stopped either. Total nightmare trying to go out with a group of mates in Dublin. 5 or 6 guys will nearly always be stopped. Thankfully most of them are too dumb to notice that we sit in a pub across the road, and we leave to go to the club 2 at a time?

"Just the 2 of you tonight, lads?".

"yep"

"go on ahead then".

So, on one hand, the fact that there's so many dumb people in one profession is a pain in the arse. But on the other hand, it's a blessing

I think the only way you will achieve justice is to complain on a public bulletin boar...oh wait. I've a better idea.

Its a race between Terry's lock/edit/ban buttons and your own edit button.

I wonder who will win? I'm afraid my money is on the Omnivigilant Terry.
