Rockit Fridays at XL (closed) (Closed Permanently) Formerly: Rockit Fridays at District 36 (and Quo, Crimson))

Attitude sucks

The kind of attitude some people get at the door just isn't done. The earlier reviews are spot on. Don't know who the other guy thinks he needs to be in a room with but I'm not any less hot just because someone less attractive is dancing on the same floor. And who's type is used as the guideline anyway? Used to go all the time, but too many friends have had bad times.

More Attitude Than Chelsea on a Bad Hair Day

I also was mocked by the doorman as I walked in, which I was shocked by. It's summer in NYC, and I had shorts and a T-Shirt on. I didn't look sloppy by any means, but he said "You don't look like that when you come to a nightclub." I was appalled, as I have never been spoken to like this at a gay club. Honestly, it is something I would expect at a straight club but I had just come from another gay bar, not knowing we would end up at this 'nightclub' and then I was so incredibly offended and made to feel like crap before even entering the bar. Once I got in, I noticed there were plenty of other people wearing the same thing I was so I'm at a loss as to why the bouncer was so rude. Maybe if I wore his huge silver sneakers that looked like they were from outer space I would have faired much better. Overall, not a very welcoming place. The crowd might be beautiful and the tunes/dance floor quite hot, but the attitude certainly is not.

Hottest crowd in New York for sure

The last two reviews are ridiculous. The reason its such a hot party is because there is finally a gay club that edits the crowd. The best looking guys in New York pack this place every week.

Turned away from friend's going-away party

Wouldn't have chosen to go to this self-adoring event in the first place, but a dear friend was having his going away party there. The doorman was incredibly rude in mocking my attire (which I hadn't been warned needed to be anything special). I complained to management who were COMPLETELY unhelpful and in fact, I received a strange message from the doorman on Facebook. Kind of creepy and definitely never going back (neither are my friends).

Dancin by myself (almost)

Hot guys, great bartenders and a couple ROCKIN djs but I had a bad time b/c I thought my friends stood me up. Turns out they just weren't allowed in cuz it was hot and they were wearing shorts (um, so was I... wtf??). No cell reception in the bar so I didn't get their texts or calls. Finally came upstairs to see where half my friends were and got their messages, so I took my money and spent it at the Ritz and danced till it closed with ALL my friends. The vibe is good but not worth the hassle.
