text: For labor day weekend, we took a girls' trip to Las Vegas and stayed at the Luxor Hotel. LAX nightclub was in our hotel and that night there was a notorious DJ scheduled to perform so we figured we'd check it out and hear the music we all love. Unfortunately, that excitement was short lived. \n\nWe were on a guest list which granted us free admission to the club, however we still did wait in line for a longer time than hoped for. While in line, we started realizing that the standards for the club were pretty low. Some of the people that were getting in the club were dressed for the grocery store rather than a Las Vegas club, and the arguing bunch next to us heated up and a fight nearly broke out but security finally ended that. Even still, we brushed it off and kept our hopes high that maybe it was better once inside. \n\nThe layout of LAX is impressive with tasteful red leather furnishings and stylish chandeliers. The entrance to the dance floor is grand and you feel like royalty (if royalty wore sexy dresses or hip club wear) as you ascend down the stairs, which are reminiscent to the staircase at the Royal Ball in \"Cinderella.\" The enthusiasm stops at the bottom of the staircase. The floor was over crowded with people and by the time we squirmed over to the bar across the way, frustration started to settle in. In the midst of your lowered spirits, the bartender explains there is no free water and the tiniest bottle of water is $8. Fine. \n\nThe music was hip-hop but was outdated but was still good music to dance to. We thought maybe the DJ was warming up while everyone waited for the star DJ that was coming. It feels like what made this experience a bad one for us was just the crowd that was patronizing the club that night. We were hoping for a bit more sophistication and class but the people there were just the opposite.\n\nThe club was appealing and the music was okay... it may just not have been our scene. For people who don't enjoy getting suited and booted for the clubs and aren't picky about the type of people occupying the club, then this may be a more enjoyable experience.
