Title: OPEN ALL NIGHT

<I look forward to a prompt reply! >Quelle diva !
You're cute for that though. You seem quite passionate about your nightcrawling (and that's to be admired) but the first rule you must learn is never attend a club that you HAVE TO GET INTO! Never let them smell you sweat. Nonchalance hon, gets you everywhere!

Don't call the woman @ 2i's a dumb bitch or King an asshole. That's not modern . The correct way to nightcrawl is to gliiiiiiide. Its all a game meant to be played with maximum confidence and wit . The object of the game is to psyche and seduce the gatekeepers so the velvet ropes come tumbling down. The reason they're not letting you in is that they're picking up on your anxiety and punishing you all the more. So relax baby, release all that anxiety and frustration and remember the object of going out is to have fun. For instance The Social Climber's Guide was never meant to be literal or practical or useful because social climbing is the most meaningless impractical and useless pastime imaginable.( Which is why we do it! )

But in all seriousness here's some practical advice: Show up with a tall, beautiful girl working the look of the moment--promoters tend to overlook guys who show up on the solitary tip. Creating cliques of beautiful women shouldn't be a prob if you're working as a promoter already non? Secondly, NEVER WAIT. Walk straight up to the ropes, looking the doortrix dead in the eyes and ANNOUNCE that you're on the list, if they don't snap to attention: LEAVE IMMEDIATELY FOR THE NEAREST COMPETITOR. But first flip out your cell phone(doesn't have to be real) and say "Hi its Dash, could you have my car pick me up at( fill in the blank of a competing club). Next time they'll remember you. Place yourself where you're a big fish in a little pool(ie start your own party and don't let ANYONE in- or B. Start writing for a magazine. NY has the greatest number of press whores per square inch of terra firma)
