CTW Members Capn Jack Posted June 23, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted June 23, 2003 Dress codes are usually to keep numbers down in a club. The dress code is often relaxed when there isn't a full capacity crowd in a club, the less people in the more you can get away with (clothing wise).

I just cant stand these ridiculous 'filtering rules', surely it should just be first come, first served ?

CTW Admin James Posted June 23, 2003 CTW Admin Share Posted June 23, 2003 o, and another thing which REALLY pisses me off are the popular bars who think they are so popular they have to keep 40 odd people queing outside un-necessarily... I was up Yates', Milton Keynes the other weekend and we were kept queing for just over an hour in the rain - we figured it was worth it as it MUST be really busy in there... only to find out when we did eventually get in it was dead!!!!!!

CTW DJs Guyster Posted June 23, 2003 CTW DJs Share Posted June 23, 2003 I remember the days of Love to Be in Sheffield, where they'd go along the line and pick out women to go to the front of the queue.... same as not letting groups of more than about 3 blokes in.....

CTW Members LiquidEyes Posted June 23, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted June 23, 2003 Arrgh! A lot of that [censored] comes down to bouncers on power-trips. My pet hate is barmen who blatantly serve fit women before blokes who were blatantly at the bar first. It's like, they're not going to shag you for serving them first, you sad [censored]!

CTW Members Ginge Posted June 23, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted June 23, 2003 I still cant understand why some pubs have dress codes...I mean, its a fookin pub, invented for anyone to go in and have a few drinks with friends. So what if you're wearing a pair of dirty jeans and a manky pair of trainers...you might have just finished work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members Bukey Posted June 23, 2003 CTW Members Share Posted June 23, 2003 I don't really care much for dress codes... Just pisses me off. Everyone should be able to wear what they want to and what they feel comfortable in.... Personally, I'm a jeans, t-shirt and trainers man. Much more comfortable when going out for 9/10/11/12+ hours of stomping... Generally the trainers I buy aren't "sporty" - I used to buy classics. Trainers I buy now for clubbing (and generally only ever worn when I go clubbing) are rock climbing/fell running trainers. They're reflective, have good mixture of blues/greys/yellows/reds, good grip on the bottom, allow very good air circulation and are as comfy as slippers. Ocassionally I'll do cyber. Very rarely, I'll let mates convince me to go to somewhere with a dress code. But even then, because it's usually (not always) pretty crappy and pikey, we'll end up leaving and going somewhere more relaxed, harder and dirtier. And with no dress code.
