Hey do any of you guys know of a good bar/club to go to on a Monday night? Basically a couple friends and I are trying to get some drinks and meet some girls. Unfortunately, Pure and Moon are both closed for Monday.

I think going to Jet on a Monday night is the "in" thing.

It says the Foundation Room is "restricted"? Does that mean you need an invite or that you can just pay to get in?

My two friends and I pregamed in the hotel room at Treasure Island and then grabbed a drink at Mist. That bar pretty much sucks; it was tiny and you couldn't sit anywhere because everything was reserved.

We then went over to the Mirage around 9:30pm. We ask some guy at the door about the Jet club and he suggests that we get a table. So there is a 2 bottle minimum with each bottle starting at $375... wtf. But he said we could just do one bottle and we said we would. We had to wait around the hotel till 10:30 when it opened. Anyways we were standing in line for getting a table but then this Hispanic guy comes up and tells us he can get us in right now for $40 each. It felt like he might be trying to rip us off but it turned out he actually did know people there and was able to get us in bypassing the line. Because he got us in we decided it made no sense to pay much more for the bottle/table.

We got a couple of drinks and kind of wandered around the club for an hour or so as it got progressively more crowded. It was pretty good at the beginning; there was a lot of girls on the dance floor. The stripper pole dancing then took place. Some of these girls were incredibly athletic. One pretty much climbed into the rafters during her act, lol. The winner supposively took home 10k. After the competetion the bar got so crowded that we decided to leave... I'm so glad we did not pay for a table/bottle service as it is a huge rip off. Overall, Jet was a pretty good time.

We then made our way back to Treasure Island and I registered my 3 friends for a $60 sit and go there that had 20 people in it. I was so drunk at that point that I didn't care about entering everyone. I got 3rd for $300 and one of my friends got 1st for $600 (he then shipped me $100) so I actually ended up despite paying for 4 people.

the table is a much bigger deal then the bottles imo. If you're going to get the cheapest bottles, they're are going to be crappy, but the table gives you a place to sit and chill, bring girls back to, talk, etc. Something you can try for the future if you don't care about the bottle, is telling your server you don't want bottles, but you'll take care of him. Giving him a few hundred up front, plus tips later on should usually do the trick.

I'm not a big club-goer, but my impression was that (at least in NY, maybe not vegas), if you have enough people that drinking however many bottles of liquor is a reasonable thing to do in a night out, bottle service doesn't really have much of a markup over waiting to buy rounds of mixed drinks at the bar at $12 or $15 or whatever per.

Has bottle service become so standard and overpriced that this isn't the case anymore?

The ghostbar is amusing, anyway. I'm 51, my wife about the same (still drop dead beautiful, and I'm so lucky)

We dropped by the Ghost bar on a Monday a couple of months ago - never have seen so many guys my age with girls in their 20's - VERY tough not to walk up and say something like "so nice to see a man spending time with his granddaughter"

Other than that, a nice view, overpriced drinks and mediocre service, so I'd give it a miss, I guess....
