you make no sense.. seriously.. He is not belittling others, AND he is not even remotely trying to be the man... How has he stated anyone's opinion ? I hate it when club-goers try and give their 2-cents about promoters and/or club owners. Club-goers typically and usually have NO clue about all the variables involved with a typical night at a club/lounge/bar. BUT club-goers ALWAYS have something to say, whether it be negative or positive. Remember these words "KNOW YOUR ROLE"... And that's the truth... Club-goers think they know everything,... How much does security cost? ,How much does a DJ or DJ(s) cost?, How much does the coat-check girl cost?, How much do hostess(s) cost?, How much do the the extras, which are un-mentionable items cost? Know your damn role before you speak...!!!!! Just cause you get a damn comp from a promoter doesn't mean your knowledgeable or that you have any cents. Also, if your under 25 don't even think of responding, cause you are too young and honestly have no damn clue how this business really works or better yet should work. This industry has changed big time for the past years. What it comes down to is that nightclubs would not exist without promoters. That is the 100% truth no matter what anyone says. Anyone that says different doesn't knwo better. The problem is, is that mant nightclub owners can't handle paying promoters. Its a problem that has existing seince the beginning... Even if you have PVD at a club, you still need promoters. Its a fact. Promoters, real promoters guarantee people in a venue. PVD does not... Its a promoters job to get people in a venue. Its not PVD's job to get people in a venue. PVD gets paid the same whether 5 people show up to his gig or 10,000 show up. Sure, he might get a bonus if 10,000 show up. So, give promoters some credit, it ain't an easy job. Its damn hard.. Promoters typically get the DJ(s), Do you all know that ? Promoters hire the door people.., Do you all know that ? Promoters produce the parties.... thank you. my 2-cents at after 5 in the morning,...;
