The point is we could've tipped them 40,000 and it wouldn't have mattered one fuckin bit. In fact, the two hosts couldn't even figure out who was hosting us. That's how fucked up they were, and then one who didn't get tipped wanted to be tipped for doing again, absolutely nothing. It was a fuckin circus run by a bunch of monkeys. I highly doubt either one of them were even educated. They just know how to walk around, open a velvet rope and ask for money, and big money at that. Your arguments make it seem like this was the first time I've ever stepped into a club in vegas, first time i've ever done bottle service in any major city. You are wrong. If clubbing experience is based solely on how much the host is tipped then perhaps I was mistaken. Maybe the einsteins at tryst should figure out that they should be held to a certain standard, and that treating the customers right might lead to additional bottles, and bottles is where clubs make their money, it certainly isn't the hosts/waitresses/ bringing in the revenue.

Oh for the record, in case people are trying to justify the poor customer relations by tryst. our party was 28, but none of the non-bottle people even were in our location. In case those of you with short attention spans forget to read, that it was 30 degrees outside. I liked how this became a math problem, but I know I paid close to 700 myself. And yes it was just 80 bucks total. For the host to seat us. The host didn't do anything else and frankly shoud've paid us for that disgrace. I definitely underestimated how much was spent, but to be honest, I wasn't watching the other 20 people in our party but obviously they were drinking something. Tryst is in the customer service business first and foremost, and well, the customer is ALWAYS right. Some of you have failed to recognize this. As for the racial insinuations, well, Rosa Parks didn't get the best seat on the bus did she? Likewise, the great majority of table service with decent tables happen to be of the european descent if you catch my drift. Poor service is what sticks out. Frankly many of you that are tipping the host 200-400 dollars are getting what exactly for your money? Oh yeah, pretty much nothing. Nice tip there guys. And no VIP host was used, frankly it wouldn't have mattered if we had paid them 4000 in tip. They didn't deserve a penny. And lastly Vegas is NOT a clubbing meca. That belongs to the major markets in this country including major cities. Los Angeles, New York, and Miami. Not Las Vegas. In fact, most if not all the clubs in vegas only require a pulse for you to get in. That is NOT the case with clubs in LA/Miami/NY. And I've had bottle service in those places, and every single place destroys Tryst. Sorry fellas, but tryst is pure trash.

I should add more details. I apologize in advance, I'm in the hospital now, and can't formulate a decent enough report. It took close to 40 minutes of asking the host to re-seat us. And upon hearing that, a second host (not sure the names, but I might be able to get them) was trying to ask for more money (tip). The audacity. Initially upon our seating arrangment at an empty club (first parties there) I did find it odd that of all the places to seat us, in the far back corner in an empty club was rather strange. Perhaps the VIP hosts at Tryst expect a 1000.00 tip for a good table, I'm not sure. Keep in mind this wasn't New Years Eve. This was the Saturday before, and the majority of our party doing bottle service were females (6 guys 13 girls). The only one positive? Our new waitress/hostess did sit with us and serve us before everyone else showed up (first hour or so). I'm sure after the huge ordeal the staff was afraid they wouldn't get tipped. And our party didn't feel the waitresses were responsible for this debacle. I've read the guidelines on cp regarding vegas VIP and how they'd like to show off the room, but in my opinion, they wouldn't know VIP if it hit them on the head. I will never return to Tryst again, and probably won't ever stay at the Wynn.

Ok, I now have the time to detail my personal experience. And furthermore, I do not intend to leave this at just a clubplanet message board. I will be contacting many people regarding this terrible incident to make sure this kind of poor treatment does not get dismissed. First of all, it was the worst table service I have ever received, and for those little ones out there, Tryst got more than its money share from our party. I would estimate over 3500.00 That was money poorly spent. I might have to break this up, but we'll start with reservations. The total group in our party was something like 28 or so. But only 19 had confirmed for table reservations. Despite tipping the host around 80.00, all additional members (mostly female) had to pay cover. And what did 80.00 buy us? The worst table at tryst. If you have been there, you know precisely which one. The one without the heatlamp in 30-40 degree weather outdoors and under the waterfall. For the record, we were also one of the first parties there (got there an hour before it opened), but didn't get seated for quite sometime. Why? Because despite confirming the second table earlier that day, Tryst had LOST that one reservation. Six bottles minimum is what we were buying. After watching the girls freeze in the corner out of sight, we asked to be re-seated. They then put us in the far back corner (also without a heat lamp), most of you don't even know there's a table back there. And several members in our party carried the chasers/bottles to our own table (including myself)!!! Do I dare continue? After an hour or so, some of the girls (4-5) just left the place (oh we had to pay up front, which is also a first for bottle service). They said the dance floor smelled like feet, and left. Which was unfortunate. I read some of the replies, and four or five in our party were physicians, the money is there, trust me. I have never been treated any worse at a club/lounge and I will make sure people find out about it including Steve Wynn.

just got back from tryst and let this be a warning to all. Tryst was a huge disappointment. I highly recommend those to go to other places in Las Vegas for nightlife. Tryst is closer to a crappy club or high end lounge than anything else. I for sure will never go there again. Aside from the racist staff, and complete unprofessional service, the venue itself is built around a waterfall that doesn't work so well in the winter. The outdoor heater lamps are poorly placed and many of the tables do not have adequate coverage. i could write a novel on the bad experiene, but I'd rather not, unless specifically asked.

Greenie, that was the most informative and articulate message I've ever read on club planet. Major props and thank you for that information.

Based purely on talent alone. I guess this is more based on personal taste, but check out these two options (and they are real!) 1. Maximus - Sasha & Digweed, Ferry Corsten, Armin Van Buuren, Sander Kleinenberg, Jimmy Van M, Boris MD, amongst others... 2. Arena - Paul Van Dyk, Deep Dish (both), Danny Howells, Marco V, and Christopher Lawrence, Steve Angello, amongst others... So which would you choose?

In college I went a couple times and didn't like it all that much. Maybe b/c it was hip hop? Not sure. Didn't touch alcohol until I was 25... By that time I was in Miami. I went out, mostly to hang out with friends. It wasn't until I went a downtown club we all know as the old Space. Went from a house room which was good into the main trance room and they dropped Flight 643... That was it. Addicted to the music and love the scene, ever since. I thought it would be a 20's phase, but it hit me late, and I'm 31 now and still lovin it.

Wait. I don't know what's happening on the 28th around vegas, but do you know if Jet has other rooms playing that "other" kind of music? Maybe I can persuade my hippidtyhoppidty friends to attend Jet?

Lawler is afterhours on Friday. A trance fan would continue the great trance by hittin up Matt Darey at Empire afterhours... I'll miss Ferry , but will definitely be there for Darey.

All the mainstream acts are in LA (once again)... Giant Village - Sasha & Digweed, Armin Van Buuren, Ferry Corsten, Jimmy Van M, and Sander Kleinenberg. LA Sports Arena - Deep Dish (ali & sharam), Danny Howells... massive.

Deep Dish is in the f'in house.... there's no question where to go. Can't wait to hear a couple of their new tracks including "Be The Change"... open with that track baby!

How about on the same lineup card? Los Angeles has announced a couple of their new years events and they are mega like always... Sports arena will have Deep Dish (both) and Danny Howells, among others. Giant Village has Armin Van Buuren, Ferry Corsten, Sasha & Digweed, Sander Kleinenberg, and Jimmy Van M...among others.

The US's best Dj is in town this weekend and he isn't spinning at pacha... New yorkers love this event and I've heard its a blast but with that cover and the NY attention, i'll have to pass. (and read the reviews). Armin & ATB are on deck.

All the incentive in the world to show up on sunday. Actually I'll just go off the music. If he's decent on friday in boston, then maybe i'll do the double header and see him on sunday in NY. 18 y/o on E are easy? Oooh.... point me in the right direction. j/k of course.

lol. I love these responses, they are so freakin hilarious. AVB, PVD, Tiesto, and Oaky pack the place and charge more than any house DJ. Disagree? Go to Roger Sanchez on Sat....it will be empty.... House is alive, too bad no-one is around... Although trance might be "dead", its far more spiritual IMO than house which goes nowhere. That's why the line will be around the block for armin at 10pm!

missed him in brooklyn, and looks like i'll miss him in NY, goin to boston to see him on friday though...

I'll hit up crobar on friday probably only to hear transatlantic flight....lol. I sure hope they don't play hip hop in the main room...

Hip hop in the main room? Say it ain't so. Hip hop has no place with that kind of system, just like house/trance shouldn't be played at places with inferior sound (like 90% of lounges) This is awful especially since Crobar is my fav club in New York. Will they continue this crap for Sharam? Feeding hip hop in the main room? I guess I might have to pass on Sharam or AVB... man o man...

You asked specifically for a lot of requirements, like good club, good music, place to dance, and no drug scene. Some of those are oxymorons because the best music happens to be in places where people are doing drugs. But check out Cielo (i haven't seen too many there when I go). Sullivan Room has a great crowd but its low scale. Cielo has a better dress/scale of people because its in the meatpacking area.

That shooting in crobar in july? Hip hop thursday. sorry but thugery is in the lyrics of many of the hip hop songs..... you think ridin dirty is about spoiling your trousers?

thanks nyctrancekid. I posted that while i was drunk, but I knew there were a bunch more tracks I recognized... pink floyd & rem.... classic. That's the kind of stuff I like to hear, throw me back to the 80's from time to time... give me some of the bread and butter, then get hard (which they did)... great time.

lol. Sounds appropriate if you ask me.... crap at a crap venue.

the lights never caught on in NY, plus there were loads of amateurs here....

Just got back, had to leave, b/c going solo can get boring at times... Great set, and the crowd was going ballistic, (that never happens w/ house).... Probably the best set of NY in 2006... we'll see if it can be topped. An opening number Ame - Rej with vocals, great track, not sure what it was... The regular G&D tracks, like Zocalo, Without You Near, Tracking Treasure Down, Beautiful Things, On A High (great track!)... i had to leave but I was lookin for Alive... Didn't care too much for the venue though. Will only visit Pacha if the talent warrants a visit.
