Extra charges for bottle service.

[jtl3567]

got one quote for XS saturday of MDW...4 guys just to get in = $2k!!! f*ck that! i'll take the tickets thanks. as long as u arent rocking up say midnight, surely u r getting in with pre bought tickets???

$2k would be for doing BS. And if you have tickets, you'd need line up around 8pm to get inside the club by 10-10:30pm, tops. Otherwise, your tickets will be gone to waste.

no its wasnt, bottle serivce was $5k! u really think over MDW we need to be gettting to clubs for 8pm!?!? they dont open till 10-11pm, i could imagine needing to get there by say 9.30 but 8pm seems crazy early

You are trying to tell us you got quoted $500 per person just to get into XS? I think you need to check your email/text again dude. NOBODY charges $500 a head cover charge and XS would be empty minus those with tables that night.

That is seriously f*cked up. But, I wouldn't be surprised if a place would try to charge that.

For that price, I'd rather go with the all-weekend passes at some places.

thats exactly what i got quoted, from a well respsected XS host also! i messaged back and said is that a mistake, u sure u mean $2k just for us to get in? and his reply was basically "c'mon dude its MDW, prices get crazy!" i didnt both replying....i thought that was taking the piss! i presume we didnt have to queue for that price but still a joke!

man i am facing the same dilemma, heading out for clubs at 8:00pm even after buying $100 tickets, this is so dumb sigh, i have bought Afrojack tickets for Saturday MDW at XS, Marquee day club and night club tickets for Friday.

Three hours standing in line prior to the doors opening, is so retarded and annoying i feel. That means friday when i do the day club and the night club, i will be standing in line for a total of almost 6 hrs ..... just to get in?

oh well...

On the positive side, Afrojack puts on a sick show when he plays at XS.

So I've always wondered how much the tip affects your table placement. I usually don't "handshake" til we are situated at our table and sat down, thus he's not seeing his tip until we already have our table. Should I give him the handshake as soon as I see him?

I've noticed that there is always a period of time between meeting your host and when he walks you back to your table... That is the time to tip him...

IMO if you arrive somewhat early and give a $100+ handshake you will end up with a better table... If I am going to arrive late I'll try to prearrange the "handshake" so they will hold that "better" table...

My friends and i are usually spontaneous when it comes to bottle service. Things like money spent and overall vibe determine if we do bottle service. How far in advance should one contact hosts to set something up? Is the same day or day before sufficient?

i would go from a week prior to the day before. same day tends to not get you a very prime location unless you're throwing down a lot of money
