Oh, RPJ. Where to start? Obviously you are oblivious to the nightclub world outside of Vegas. Have you ever even been to a club in Miami or London? In the last year I've been to clubs in both, as well as Amsterdam, Milan, Barcelona, Ibiza and many others. I'm also a nightclub investor myself, and a regular visitor to Vegas. There is a HUGE difference in the club scene. Yes, you get better treatment at any club if you grease some palms, but nowhere else in the world is it as blatant and obscene as it is in Vegas.
Calling LAX one of the world's best nightclubs is laughable. It's not even in the same class as places like Space in Miami or Pacha in Ibiza. Like many places in Vegas, it just has a "fake" feel to it. This may come as a surprise to you, but the Venetion is not he same as being in Venice.
Don't get me wrong - I love Vegas, and usually have a great time when I visit, but the constant "upping the ante" for basic services leaves one feeling ripped off. If I'm slapping benjamins in the hands of everyone I come in contact with, I expect some level of service, not a busboy making off with full drinks just so the club can milk me for more $$. That's just a cheap and blatant ripoff of the patrons.
