Nightclub Promoter

Nightclub Promoter

Xander

Hollywood, CA

Male, 32

I promoted at several of Hollywood’s hottest clubs during a period of unemployment, mainly to see what all of the fuss was about. While it was fun and definitely had its perks, it also confirmed quite a few of the suspicions and stereotypes I’d previously held about how the industry works.

This guy asked me what I charge to host (I have no idea what that even means). What does hosting at a nightclub entail and what does it usually pay?

Asked by Hollywood girl over 10 years ago

It means either being the bottle girl or the girl at front with the clipboard. Pay varies but bottle girls can make a lot on tips (and usually 20% on the bottles)

Are nightclub promoters and bouncers a OFFICALY allowed to ask you for $$ ($100 per) to let you pass the line but not including entrance fee?
and if so do the promoters and bouncers pocket the cash or split the money among themselves?

Asked by Max over 10 years ago

Not technically. Bouncers get in more trouble than promoters. And for the most part the both just pocket the $.

Asked by Thanks almost 9 years ago

Thanks sir or madam. I couldn't agree more. It's about time Xander The Promoter became Xander the Life Coach. Like Oprah, all the best ones have a single name.

Hello, do you need any connections to DJ in a club?

Asked by DJ almost 11 years ago

It helps. The best DJ's have agents. Otherwise it's a bunch of networking and trying to get your music heard

It sounds like you have been with a fair share of club girls... can you divulge: Are they usually bare down there? Also, I am always curious as to whether or not they are wearing underwear under those tight outfits?

Asked by Freedom over 10 years ago

What is your inmate number, Freedom? :)

I haven't seen hair down there since I stole my neighbors 1973 playboy magazine (this was last week)

I've found g-strings are typically the norm
