Vik from Jersey

[Vik15]

hey whats up everyone??

Got a lot of amazing information that helped me plan out my upcoming trip to vegas, so thought id post on the forum and introduce myself. Get into the loop.

I'm Vik, from new jersey. Graduated from rutgers a few years ago. Headed out to Vegas for the first time with a couple of my close friends. A couple of them are about to get engaged/ married, so this is sort of a bachelor party type atmosphere. Theres a total of 7 of us. All are mid 20's .

Going Labor Day Weekend, the 4th-7th and staying at the Hard Rock.

Nightclubs we plan to go to :

Friday- Pure or Tao or Rain (what do you guys think?? advice??)
Saturday - XS
Sunday- Body English

DEf want to do spearmint rhino one of those nights after the club.

I am looking for some nice spots to really enjoy some pre-club drinks or kill time in the afternoons/ evenings. Any bars like that, with a real upbeat and fun atmosphere??

Look forward to everyones insight !!

carnival court, the center bar at hard rock is always hopping and of course pool parties for the daytime. I would doeither tao or the palms bracelet on fridays then sat and sun look solid.....welcome aboard and keep choppin that wood

welcome.........Any of those 3 are fine. The cheapest and easiest route the wristband for the palms. Read the LDW thread in the nightlife section. Most of those guys have a budget friendly plan, considering its a holiday weekend.

Thanks so much for the input guys.. Not really on a fixed budget per say.. for the nightclubs, we are probably going to get like 3 bottles per night in each club, just to avoid any drama at the door, especially since its labor day weekend and its a group of guys.. Want to make sure we have the complete "vegas experience"..

I was reading over the LDW thread, and i really got a lot of good information from there about possibilities..

i have heard good things about the bar at hard rock, so im sure i will be hanging around there whenever im at the hotel...

youll have a good time with that frame of mind....if you know you have to get 3 bottles each night and set it up in advance and get there right at 1030, it will be a cake walk youll have the time of your life: if I was in your shoes this would be my agenda....friday TAO (better than rain but im having a tough time not saying do a night at all 3 clubs at plams, but I think youll have a better time at tao) sat TRYST and sunday either BE or bank (I happen to be partial towards the bank over BE) but thats me

+1 nyc2vegas. but considering your age, you would have a really good time at Pure on Fri too. Your doing it right. Bottles are the way to go on a weekend like that, if you can afford it.

[Vik15]

yea, bottles i hope just make things easier for everyone. I intend to use the JC hosts, and get there early (hopefully get seated somewhere nice). Did not want to take any risks of not getting into the club, or not being able to get bottle service.

In regards to saturday, everyone is like fixated on doing XS, because we had a lot of friends really highly praise the club and atmosphere.

I thought about tryst on friday, but i just thought it was too similar to XS, like when i read reviews..

you def wont have a problem between using jc hosts and getting there early, BUT the only reason I suggested tryst is because that is the best place to go with the least headache, XS on a holiday weekend could be a mood killer, I agree though either do XS or tryst dont do both and if everyone is fixated on xs then just sure it all up with the host when reserving the table
