I just heard this yesterday and I couldn't believe it

is so....then why?

I also heard that healiners are now $5 at the door, which is a good thing....but how can they afford to let in people for $5 when they usually charge $20-25?

i heard on monday that they have recieved a 21 day suspension because of narcotics violations on the premises.

apparently flashlights were used in the search.

would you go to system sober? It happens to every club, Systems no different. There is no scandal although I have heard something about someone drinking all the booze....

No offence to the guys running the Friday and Saturday nights at System, but does anyone else find it funny how System goes and loses their liquor license for a couple weeks, and then the party names are called "Prohibition", and it's a "Customer Appreciation Night" that's 18+?

I think it's kind of funny. The Prohibition name is kind of creative in my opinion.

i believe that club is *owned* rather than rented, which would make it significantly easier to charge a lower cover when necessary.

Although it does make you question the necessity of the high covers in the first place.

I guess it's either that they normally charge too much or they are trying to appease potential negative reaction from 'the drinkers'.

they probably won't lose that much when the residents are there but will the next week with johnny fiasco (imagine if someone like bad boy bill was supposed to play, i wonder if he has a cancellation charge?)

but it's probably better for them to stay open than to close and have a ton of people just show up on friday and saturday nights wondering what's going on, getting pissed and not going again or for a while at least. or worse yet wondering into another club and finding a new regular place to go.

System

Let's face it ... the high cover charges at System are a direct result of the MASSIVE guestlist at the club. You cannot give the majority of your patrons free or reduced cover without making up the difference from the much smaller group of plebians.

System Soundbar has always been over-priced.

The reason it's $5 (i think it's $25 after 2)for the Prohibition party is to get people in to the club. Otherwise people will just drink elsewhere and then come to System.

Also like the cheap cover before midnight deal.....then you end up paying more once you get there.
