    Is it just me or do the bouncers go out of their way to be pricks?
    Any time they reject someone they throw in a snide remark and insult.
    When you have a legitimate ID they ask you ridiculous questions to try and catch you out. Headwrecking stuff...

    Methememb, its simple really... if you have a serious complaint about the bouncers at a venue, then ring the venue the next day and ask to speak to the manager... air your grievances with him or her and something will be done about it normally... normally the manager will have it out with the staff member in question, lighting the ground around them, or with the head of the security provider/company... and they dont want to lose the contract, so they will light the ground around the staff member (bouncer) in turn.

    Under no circumstances are bouncers allowed to insult customers, even if they are not admitted for whatever reason. Venues like to retain customers and their reputation.

    Im not a bouncer, but have worked previously in the bar/nightclub sector for many years and it was not too uncommon for bouncers to lose their jobs after being complained about by customers... (once the customers complaint was legit!)

    Bottom line is that venues do not want bad press nowadays as word of bad service etc. spreads very quickly in small towns and now on facebook and twitter.

    I would complain to the manager over the phone or by email if i were you.
