How to Get Past The Velvet Rope

So you and your friends are waiting in what must surely be the worlds longest line at the hottest nightclub in town.
The club is jam-packed, and the bouncer is letting in only a select few "VIP'S" (mostly gorgeous women and guys who pull up to the valet in Ferrari's) whilst you wait and wait and then wait some more with the other desperate and clueless in line.
How, you ask, do I beat this line and get in the club? Is my money not good enough for them? Who or what decides who or what a VIP is?
Heres five things you should know BEFORE you step up to the Velvet Rope, by an industry veteran with over twenty years experience in the Nightlife business.
Dress to impress
Dress the part. Put on something classy that looks expensive or retro ... image is everything for these hot spots and you have to look like you are important enough for them not to ignore you.
Arrive in style
Valet your car. Exiting your vehicle (unless it doesn't fit the image of your clothes) in front of the door is another way to establish your importance. If your car isn't hip, hire a classy cab service to take you to the restaurant.
Be confident
Walk confidently. Don't look around waiting for someone to stop you at the door. Strut a little, even--have fun with the arrogance.
Give generous tips
Tip everyone well. Start with the valet. If the bouncer stops you, slip him a tip. The hostess cant get you a table? Try a nice bill.
Meet the manager
If you succeed and get yourself a booth at the hottest hot spot in town, make sure you ask to meet the house manager. Build a relationship with the staff so that they remember you when you come back!

A man went to a bar and drank three drinks while still on his feet.
'Mister, why don't you sit down?'
'Because I've sworn to my wife that I will not sit in a bar again.'
