  • Tier 1 and Tier 2

    What defines a Tier 1 club or a tier 2?

    What are the advantages and disadvantages of both?

  • #2
    Tier 1 are the clubs with the most demand, which allows them to charge a premium for tables, cover, etc... They're likely to attract the hottest women, offer excellent service and have big name DJ's/celebrity hosts.

    Tier 2 clubs will still be packed on certain nights, but will be more willing to offer deals on others. Often the quality of the crowd isn't the same at the tier 2 spots.

      Any examples of the tier 2 clubs?

        It's pretty subjective, but off the top of my head:

        Pure, Rok, Rain, RPM, LAX, Vanity

          Rok isn't really in a tier, its basically off the cliff.

            lol, very true. i'd consider tier 2 from higher end to lower end to be tryst, lavo, the bank, haze, pure. maybe chateau? i think rpm, hyde and 1oak are all too new to really fit in to a tier at this point. they're not like marquee or surrender, which were top tier 1 before they opened...

                    Cathouse should be in Tier 3.
                    Crown is a completly different category. Don't think its fair to call it Tier 3 just because is an Urban club. Its the number 1 urban club in Vegas. It's like trying to rank teisto in a top 40 category.

                        I'll agree with that. it was a coinflip on Cathouse on Tier 2 vs Tier 3.

                        and I agree that Crown should be in it's own category... as would Krave.

                          I think they are both a mix of everything.

                            In the all time category, Club Utopia is either Tier 0 or else all other clubs bump down a tier and Utopia stands in Tier 1 by itself.

                            Damn I feel old.

                              Dnix - any chance you could list the types of music next to a few of the clubs on the previous page? That would help out bigtime. Thx
