I absolutely hate Webster Hall, it's too bad it's a good concert venue and they get good acts.
So a month and a half ago i show up for a concert I have tickets to (Fever Ray), and this bouncer was giving me a hard time telling me I wouldn't get in because I "looked a little drunk." This was all while wasted girls tripping on themselves were being let right in. So I know a few big people here and asked for them to come out and resolve this mess and no one would get them. they decided to screw with me for some reason and didn't let me into a concert I had paid for. He literally took my ticket and ripped it up. I was pissed and left.
I come back for another more club related event a couple weeks later and he tried to hold me out (I was sober, he had no excuse) and I caught one of the promoters by the door and he got me in and gave this asshole a lot of shit.
Now on Tuesday I went back for a Royksopp concert I had tickets to with my girlfriend and sure enough he was there, refused to let me in while I was with my girlfriend on her birthday and said none of my friends are around to help me and there is no way he is letting me in. I was so pissed off at this point I punched him straight in the face. I'm just a small white guy and I just punched a six foot black bouncer in the face. I knew I would only get one shot and at least it was good before I had two bigger guys on top of me pinning me down.
Needless to say I'm not going back there for a while until they change there bouncer staff or it's a really good event. Has anyone had situations like this? I'm out over $100 in tickets because of some bouncer with a big ego who just decided to pick on me one day. I can't take it up with the venue because well I punched a bouncer in the face and all of the others will deny that he wouldn't let me in to an event I paid for for no reason. Can ticketmaster do anything?
Anyone else have anything like that happen?
