AJ, THE VIP BOOKG ORDATOR, BOOKED ME A VIP TABLE AND THEN WAS "EMBARRASSED" TO TELL ME HE ULD NO LONGER RERVE A TABLE FOR ME BEE A NATNAL PAGEANT WOULD BE TOWN. I'M NOT SURE HOW HE DID NOT KNOW THIS WOULD BE HAPPENG SCE HIS ONLY JOB IS TO BE THE VIP ORDATOR. ANYWAY, AK ADVISED ME TO STILL BRG MY PARTY TO THE VENUE AND WE WOULD STILL HAVE A GOOD TIME. IN WRG AN EMAIL, AJ ASSURED ME THAT IF I GOT TO THE VENUE AT 9:30 WH MY GROUP, WE WOULD HAVE "PLENTY OF SEATG" TO CHOOSE OM. WE ARRIVED AT 9:30 WH THE $10 GENERAL ADMISSN TICKETS I BOUGHT ADVANCE. THE SHOW HAD ALREADY STARTED AND HOURS BEFORE (EVEN THOUGH THE TICKETS SAID THE SHOW STARTED AT 10:30) AND THERE WAS NO ROOM FOR TO EVEN STAND. I ULD NOT HAVE AN ENTIRE BACHELORETTE PARTY STANDG THE BACK OF A CROWD ROOM FOR A FUN NIGHT OUT. I REQUTED A MANAGER AND WAED 45 MUT. THE MANAGER SPOKE WH THE OWNER SEVERAL TIM AND TOLD ME I ULD NOT HAVE MY MONEY BACK. I REQUTED TO SPEAK WH THE OWNER AFTER AN HOUR OF WAG AND EXPLAG MY STORY AND SHOWG MY EMAILS OVER AND OVER. THE OWNER WAS LD AND UNSYMPATHETIC AND HAD NOTHG TO OFFER ME BUT THE LD SHOULR. I NNOT BELIEVE THE WAY I WAS TREATED. I SPENT SO MUCH TIME MUNITG WH AJ AND TABLISHG A TIMELE FOR MY LARGE GROUP AND NO ONE WAS ABLE TO HAVE A GOOD TIME. I LOST $150 AND HAD TO E UP WH NEW PLANS BEE EVERYONE'S FEET HURT OM STANDG HIGH HEELS AND NO ONE ULD SEE THE SHOW. THE MANAGER ACTUALLY CRIED BEE HE FELT SO BAD FOR .

AJ, THE VIP BOOKG ORDATOR, BOOKED ME A VIP TABLE AND THEN WAS "EMBARRASSED" TO TELL ME HE ULD NO LONGER RERVE A TABLE FOR ME BEE A NATNAL PAGEANT WOULD BE TOWN. I'M NOT SURE HOW HE DID NOT KNOW THIS WOULD BE HAPPENG SCE HIS ONLY JOB IS TO BE THE VIP ORDATOR. ANYWAY, AK ADVISED ME TO STILL BRG MY PARTY TO THE VENUE AND WE WOULD STILL HAVE A GOOD TIME. IN WRG AN EMAIL, AJ ASSURED ME THAT IF I GOT TO THE VENUE AT 9:30 WH MY GROUP, WE WOULD HAVE "PLENTY OF SEATG" TO CHOOSE OM. WE ARRIVED AT 9:30 WH THE $10 GENERAL ADMISSN TICKETS I BOUGHT ADVANCE. THE SHOW HAD ALREADY STARTED AND HOURS BEFORE (EVEN THOUGH THE TICKETS SAID THE SHOW STARTED AT 10:30) AND THERE WAS NO ROOM FOR TO EVEN STAND. I ULD NOT HAVE AN ENTIRE BACHELORETTE PARTY STANDG THE BACK OF A CROWD ROOM FOR A FUN NIGHT OUT. I REQUTED A MANAGER AND WAED 45 MUT. THE MANAGER SPOKE WH THE OWNER SEVERAL TIM AND TOLD ME I ULD NOT HAVE MY MONEY BACK. I REQUTED TO SPEAK WH THE OWNER AFTER AN HOUR OF WAG AND EXPLAG MY STORY AND SHOWG MY EMAILS OVER AND OVER. THE OWNER WAS LD AND UNSYMPATHETIC AND HAD NOTHG TO OFFER ME BUT THE LD SHOULR. I NNOT BELIEVE THE WAY I WAS TREATED. I SPENT SO MUCH TIME MUNITG WH AJ AND TABLISHG A TIMELE FOR MY LARGE GROUP AND NO ONE WAS ABLE TO HAVE A GOOD TIME. I LOST $150 AND HAD TO E UP WH NEW PLANS BEE EVERYONE'S FEET HURT OM STANDG HIGH HEELS AND NO ONE ULD SEE THE SHOW. THE MANAGER ACTUALLY CRIED BEE HE FELT SO BAD FOR . LONG STORY SHORT: DO NOT PREPAY FOR ANY EVENT HERE, DO NOT UNT ON THE TERRIBLE MUNITN OM AJ THE BOOKG AGENT, AND HAVE A BACK UP PLAN IF THEIR STTERED ANIZATN OF THEIR OWN VENUE S YOUR PLANS.

WE'RE NOT OM LOUISVILLE (WE'RE OM NASHVILLE), AND WE HAD HEARD THAT WAS AN EXCG GAY CLUB. THE TTH IS THAT THE CLUB SELF IS PRETTY OUTSTANDG. THE DANCE FLOOR, THE MANY BARS, AND THE DRAG STAGE WERE ALL PRETTY EXTRAVAGANT. HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO ONE THE CLUB! THIS WAS A SATURDAY NIGHT AT ABOUT 11:30 AND WAS A GHOST TOWN. WE ASKED THE EMPLOYE WHY WAS SO SERTED, AND THEY SAID WAS THE WEATHER ( WAS A LTLE RAY THAT NIGHT). WE WENT TO PLAY STEAD AND WAS PACKED. I SAY THAT THE CLUB WAS SERTED, BUT FACT, THERE WERE ACTUALLY SEVERAL STRAIGHT FEMAL (BACHELORETTE PARTI, OF URSE). I KNOW THAT STRAIGHT GIRLS ENJOY SEEG DRAG SHOWS, BUT THIS PLACE SEEMED TO BE TERG SPECIFILLY TO THAT CROWD. THEY HAD A UPLE A STRAIGHT MALE DANCERS E OUT AND ENTERTA THE LADI. IT FELT MORE LIKE A LADI CLUB THAN A GAY CLUB. EVERYONE SEEMED VERY IENDLY.
