Get over yourself. I was also turned away from many different places because of "Private Functions" or not having a membership or whatever, in this country and others. In fact, I (and the five other WHITE people in front of me) couldn't get into Asoka on Friday. Something about needing to have made a reservation beforehand or whatever. I thought it was a BS excuse, and they probably just wanted to keep more space available for Jazz Fest VIPs but whatever. I could have made a scene and complained, or make a phone call and gotten inside anyway, but it's just a club and it's really not that big of a deal. But if you actually knew anything about the place you'd know that the crowd is in fact very diverse, with some really cool people, and other pretentious twats of all races who like to be seen sipping on expensive bottles alcohol that they don't even like, and everyone else in between. Just like many other places in CPT. And just like any of those venues, the odds if someone getting in who doesn't fit the profile of what the owner wants his venue to be associated with is probably not very high. I'm not making excuses for the venue (because for all I know the owners, staff and clientele might be incredibly racist), I'm just telling you how it is right now.

PS. If you think that people don't complain about other places in town then you are most certainly out of the loop. Snotty people will just tend to complain about the more popular venues. Spend some time on HelloPeter and marvel at the amount of petty BS that people spend their time complaining about because their fragile egos can't handle rejection.
