I am a local and have been to V2o twice in the past two weeks, with last Saturday being alot more crowded. The cover is easily avoided by getting yourself onto the guest list before 9pm and this also avoids the wait in line, if there is one. The email addy can be had by simply calling and asking the hostess for it, I dont want to give it out because I am not a promoter. I like the place, thought it had very nice decor and I do beleive the crowds will be there in the future. Also there is free parking all over the place, that garage is a rip off. My friend lives in the new huge apartment complex adjacent to the pike and we park in a secure garage there for free every weekend without incident. The staff there is a little much but overall very cool. Upcoming events there should help boost popularity. Also, for privacy they do have booths, tables and two patios. The hip hop room also has some seating at the bar in some really cool low rider chairs. In short, check it out. But give it some time. The egil and humpty should be a good event.
