No BS at Tier-1

[It was all a dream]

My gf and I are coming to town for 3 nights (thurs,fri,sat) the last weekend of July and we are wanting to go to a T1 our 2nd night out. This will be the first time I have not done BS, what can I expect to spend for no line / no wait? Also, does no line / no wait actually mean no line / no wait or does that just depend on your host?

Same question but with a 50/50 group of 6....My gut tells me $40/guy and maybe $10/girl.

Depends if you're going to do BS at any point in time during your trip.

Typically, a host you've worked with, or are in the process to work with, can get you hooked up at the door for another night of your trip.

For example, getting a table at Marquee Saturday? Friday, you could ask your host to get you in on Friday night at Marquee, Tao, Lavo (all Tao Group)... Got a Table at XS on Monday? have them hook you up with Guest List at Tryst on Saturday...

If you aren't planning on BS this trip, then you just need to make the rounds with hosts and see what you can figure out.

I think a lot of people get worried if they're not popping bottles in Vegas. I've gone a dozen times in the last couple of years, half with bottles, and half without. I've never had a problem getting in any where without bottles even when I've rolled with a group of 4 guys. Couple of key reasons for that. I usually will get there before the club opens so once they do open I'm in within a few minutes. Get stamped and come back whenever you please. If not go out later and you're usually ensured a quick entry as well without having to deal with a line as well. Talking around 2 a.m. Lastly you could always purchase pre sale tickets and avoid the GA line. I've done this quite a few times without any problems. I think the absolute longest I've ever waited on line even with the group of guys has been maybe 20 minutes tops, and that's without greasing a single person.

For some reason pre-sale GA tickets always being overlooked on this forums, maybe its a fairly new concept for the Vegas clubs or people doesn't think they works or something .

Marquee and XS plus other various clubs has pre-sale tickets almost for every weekend. If you are not doing the bottle service this is best way to go, done it myself several times already!! Quick lines and if you buy your tickets in advanced it is way cheaper option than greasing your way in.

Or if you have good relationship with certain host you can always contact that host and you will get in with no problem probably.

I usually do 20 guy 10 girl. If they comp me, I give an extra $10 per person.
Btw with your ratio you can GL anywhere. Except XS since it's girls only on fridays and saturdays.

Also yes no line no wait means no line no wait...For example last time I met up with another forum member who was in town, it was 3 guys. I hit up my host at XS asked if he could do a handshake...Texted him on arrival and met him by the GA line. Gave him $150 for all 3 of us...he took $50 gave back the rest to give to the cashier since he couldn't comp us that night. Walked around to the front of the cashier and opened up the ropes so we could get through. Just paid the cashier and walked in. This was a saturday night btw.

yes people forget about Pre-sale online and Pre-sale concierge. Not everyone has a host or people that they know. Not everyone has BS that night also.

So to others that read this and think that BS or knowing someone is the only way to get in these places, that is totally false. These clubs can easily be enjoyed without having to spend a fortune or finding someone who knows someone, etc to get in.

The pre-sale tickets will get you in just fine. No having to see if you have to grease someone when you get there. Not having to deal with crossing your fingers if you can get in the G/L or G/A line.

So don't be afraid to buy tickets online through the club website. Usually a good way to make sure you'll get in the club.

Damn i had no clue about presale tickets til this thread....now this will be my plan for XS on a Saturday when i go to vegas...since BS at Tao is in the works on a friday....

[WT661]

In many cases, even if you get in on the guestlist, you'lll still have to pay something after a certain time. So why not just get a discounted pre-sale and not worry about it.
I've seen some places charge (men)$30 at pre-sale, $40 if on guestlist, $50 gen admission.

But keep in mind Guestlist can work best for women, since they can often get in for free. So only for women that pre-sale may not be necessary.

Presale is an awesome idea if you're planning ahead. Other than our BS night I'm wingin' it so I'll have to bring my grease gun and a few phone numbers...

[shrimp123]

How far ahead do you need to get presale tickets? Can a group of 6 guys get in using presale tickets without girls? Obviously we would get to the club really early if we did this

[It was all a dream]

How exactly does presale work? Like you get your tickets then you get to the club, where or who do you go up to and be like "hey dude, im here"? I dont really get it.

You buy the tickets off of a website (Wanttickets.com, MarqueeLasVegas.com, etc...) and you bring your print off showing you paid for the ticket. There is a seperate line for people who have bought tickets. The person at the door has a list off all the people who have paid for tickets. You get in that line, show them your ID, and printoff, and you're in.

[WT661]

yup wanttickets.com has a facebook page and does promotions on there on what djs will be at what club. Its kinda of like a ticketmaster for clubs.
Ya some clubs like Marquee have it setup where you can buy pre-sale too through the site.

[shrimp123]

Thanks guys, how far in advance of an event do you usually buy these?

Also is this a viable option for a group of 6-7 guys? In the fine print I've read things like the below. It would just suck to pay the $50 or whatever for the ticket and not even get in, I'm going EDC weekend which everyone says is a popular one

"Even guy / girl ratio required or subject to door discretion".
