Sometimes the perfect promotional trinket comes along. And, this time the Hard Rock delivered it in the form of a mirrored invite for the grand opening of their truth-in-advertising nightclub named: Vanity.  Also, a neat fit for a Vegas nightclub slogan “It’s all about you.”

Of course, if you really want it to be all about you at a Vegas nightclub there is a price tag attached. Otherwise, very little turns out to be about you. Waiting for hours in a line to get inside the nightclub, for example, is not about you and so you can spend money to not wait. Of course, if there weren’t others to wait in the line, how would you enjoy the experience of being walked past them into the club by your new host friends? How can it be about the people in line, too? Don’t stop to think on that. Instead, consider how being on a crowded dance floor with nowhere to go, isn’t about you either. But, again, you can pay for a place to sit.

And, so it goes all night. If you got the money, nightclubs have the time to flatter your vanity endlessly.

At the right price Vegas nightclubs really are all about you. You can even get an escort to the bathroom at some clubs (be sure to tip).  Congratulations, and, I hope the next morning you enjoyed the experience of being so special. This industry rests on you. And, the next night at the club there will be other people just as special. Yes, that is the job, night after night: making it all about you. (photo: Lanie Crossman)
