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.
Nope
Share Answer: 
Ha! No. The club isn't even really liable for most things and they have insurance (which costs a fortune) for the things they are liable for. If a promoter was held liable for the actions of 2000 drunk and potentially drugged-up bozos, no one would ever do the job.

Ha, I've never seen it but the idea of a bouncer flashing a light in the face of a short-haired Vassar alum screaming about rape culture makes me laugh.

......i'm pretty sure this girl doesn't sleep around but she did become a bartender at 18 and does it sometimes. can you write out a how-to list for attractive girls that want to live the same lifestyle? i'm 20 and have a fake id."
You're kidding yourself if you don't think she sleeps around. That lifestyle only goes so far until you have to pay the piper.
There's no to-do list except maybe move to LA, NY or Miami. Look hot, got out a lot, if you are attractive enough, the rest comes to you.
Stay in school kids

Stand-Up Comedian
Did your career blow up after you performed on the Tonight Show / Conan?
Buy nice clothes, try to bring girls if you can, grease the bouncer. If all else fails, buy botttle service.

Keep in mind you are taking career advise from someone whose career choice at one point was to be a nightclub promoter. So take with a grain of salt.
You need to be model good-looking to make that kind of money. And really, that's not enough. The guys that make that kind of money are usually a group of friends of famous/rich fathers. They are really good looking and grew up around party people so they have a huge network of hot girls and connections to attractive people. Ideally the went to high school in Santa Monica, Pacific Palisades or Malibu so they might have a friends who are low-level famous (think Brody Jenner). And they are really good looking so attractive women want to hang out with them.
They're also usually huge douchebags
Does this sound like you? If not, don't quit your day job
The next time I'm on a plane I'm going to try not to think about my pilot considering slut-herding on the weekend as a career option.
