I like to wander into venues drunk, call everyone a **** and pass out on the floor. Vomitting and/or soiling yourself is an option too. Remember, first impressions really count...

I also use the time tested method of ripping stuff of the walls. If they have the speakers it stacks, start knocking those over.

It has been my experience that, "a large network of friends who like to party", are also overly keen on the word, "guestlist". Frowner

Yeah,

All of a sudden you meet people you never knew before & they ask you if you could get them on the guestlist.
Most of the time I keep those guestlist places for my best friends only, the other one's can go @#|#{@$^% theirselves Wink

PS: Unless she's 18 years old, brown hair, brown eyes & willing to "pay" for it hahaha Big Grin

Not sure what the problem with that is? Your large network of friends come and make the party better and you get booked more often and at more places in exchange for them getting in for free... WIN/WIN!!

Im also a promoter, so free/dicounted cover = more people in the venue spending money on booze, which results in a bigger bar bonus... again, WIN/WIN!!!
