Recently(was a saturday night), spent a whole bunch of money to go with a few friends (including a newbie we wanted to entertain!) to a sex club.. the cab there and back nearly wiped us out.. only to find that the 5 people who were there, left the place soon after we arrived.. So a huge 2 story club had just...us..2 couples and single gal..
Yes, these places are hit and miss, but the size of the venue just made it so much more obvious! Anyone else had similar experience? I know that you can ring up a venue in advance and enquire about the night and the numbers, but do you think the owners should let us know at the door before we fork out a fortune? I completely appreciate that clubs have running costs, but we're not just paying to go into a club on it's own..I feel we are paying for an experience that in this situation is just impossible to have..I would have atleast offered us free entry next time we came..espeically when you can see how disappointed we all were..
Having said all that, don't worry, I did get drunk as a skunk and luckily one of the friends stepped in and gave me something to chew on while I reflected on our night once back home.. :twisted:
Miss it does happen sometimes..... I went to a club in London a few years bac when there was 10 people in whole club and mostly single guys.
Tbh I know only go to clubs I know will be busy...if I could begin Abfab....I would like to get to more often because it is good and busy.
Though sometimes I like clubs that are not ram packed...gives a chance to talk to people

I've found that just after Christmas the club scene tends to die off a little and one thing I've learned (the hard way) is that calling a club to check how busy it is just doesn't work...ever
'Toots 'Hello Club xxx, are you busy tonight?'
' club xxx' 'Oh yes, we're packed, it's very busy tonight'
only to arrive, pay the fee and find that there are just a handful of ppl in the club.
Now we use the cars parked outside the club as a gauge, a few cars and it's a no go, average amount and we'll think about it, heaving amount of cars and we're game.
Nothing worse than visiting a swinging club to find the atmosphere similar to that of a Library.
Sorry to hear the outing was uneventful! A bit shocking to hear they'd leave the club running with next to nobody in it. But maybe they also hoped the evening would pick up, just like you did. I wonder if they would have given you a refund or free future entry if you had complained and/or asked for it.
But for the sake of argument...

Isn't what you pay for the right to use the facilities, no meets or play guaranteed? Isn't this complain getting too close to the complain of certain guys who expect sexual gratification because they have paid their fees? (whether on site or in club)

yes yes... I see what you mean..I guess I didn't mean specifically "play experience".. Talking to like-minded people would be part of the experience for me.. The thrill is not having sex in paid-for facilities, it's the ambiance (pardon the cheesy term lol ), the vibe, the sexual energy of people flowing in the room..
And nice to see you back Pebble!! x
I did see a very impressive response to this by a club recently where they offered a complimentary night if attendees were below a certain number. Got to be the way to go in the current climate for wallets and clubs alike.
So a single guy goes to a club, its a bit quiet and he gets no action.
He gets drunk as a skunk and comes on here to complain about it.
One has to wonder about the double standards that have suddenly raised their heads. wink

One has to wonder if people read threads and replies properly. No one complained about not "getting any action" at the club. I am discussing paying a large entry fee to an empty club, which a single guy is completely within his right to complain about too.
As I said to Pebble..it's about a about lack of an atmosphere rather than lack of sex.
:wink:
You think they should give you free entry if its quiet then ????
Maybe next time I go to the match, if its no score I can ask for my money back !!!!!
Get real woman and welcome to the world of the swingers club.......................

Assuming 'score' is a metaphor for 'get laid', and so, no, ofcourse not. Even if no one scored, you still enjoyed the event. But if you turned up and it was an empty stadium with just the lawnmower on the field then yes, you should ask for your money back..or a massive discount next time, or anything that would resemble good customer service so that you would go again to the event/venue.
Just because it's called a "sex club" doesn't mean the owners shouldn't care about the customers' experience both good or bad as you would do when running any business..
Yes we were caught out once a few months back, arrived on a Friday night
paid our money, not to much as we are a couple went upstairs and there were 5 males there.
Chatting to the owner he told us every one was attending on the Saturday evening as it was there monthly ball night and that the night before is always quiet
Should have told us that at the door.
But to be fair have been back a a few times and had some fun times, so its all about making sure you go on the right night
Like many people we've gone to clubs, often travelling a long way, to find very few people in them.
Once we were the only people in a club on a Friday night at 10pm, then another couple came in, we got chatting to them, then had a great time with them in a playroom, so in the end it was well worth it. It's not how many people are in a club, but finding the RIGHT people in a club !!
In fact, if we know the club is having a special party night and its going to be packed we don't expect much sexual fun, as the private playrooms will be full all night and an orgy room is not really our scene. So we go to party nights to expect a "party" with a sexual atmosphere.

its what we liked about destiny's before it shut. bob would always tell you at the door it was a little quiet but there was always a few people which and being a small venue it never seemed empty
shame it had to shut really :sad:

that's what I was hoping for that night, especially as I was there with friends who don't play at all and were just there to soak it all in..
and yes, always about the Right people..at clubs, online, in meets, in forums... wink
I haven't been a club in years but have had good experiences on quiet nights, and no lie once was only me and couple running the place left and we ended up having a threesome, a bit of a pinch me I'm dreaming moment.

I can only suggest that if your going to a club ,ask on here if any one else plans to go that evening and try to organize a group ,perhaps you could get discount from the club as party rates too
even if you dont get laid at least your have some peeps to chat to
