Maybe I (and my group) have gotten too old, but my/our club days are over. I may go again on a rare exception, but I think I am done...Why?
1. Priced out. Unless a group of 6 can get two bottles of Vodka, some bottles of water, and a few redbull at a good (not primo, but good) table, for $300 PP at a top tier club, I am no longer interested. Tried to do this at Hakkasan and host could not do better than $470PP (all-in). Settled for XS having been lead to believe it was doable for $300PP (or less). Came out there paying $370pp (all-in). Sorry, but that is $740/couple of $940 per couple at Hakkasan. Just too much.
2. Music. Last several trips have been nothing but techno. Would be nice to hear an actual song.
3. Service is dropping. For example, wives/GFs used to get escorted to the bathrooms through the crowd. That has gone by the wayside.
4. Risk of getting bumped.
It's just gotten to be too much.
Maybe I am just an old fart.
I miss the glory days of Club Utopia (before the fire).
