WHAT IS A GUESTLIST ?

What does it mean by putting your name on the guest list? Does it mean you have been invited? Does it mean you get in for free?

Well for novice party goers’ the term guest list can be confusing I am going to try and explain what is actually meant by the phrase guest list and what the advantages are of getting on the guest list and how you can go about getting on a guest list.

Your probably wondering why bars & clubs require a guest list and why people cannot just turn up as and when they please?

Well in most cases they can, but on other busier more popular days like the weekends and special event nights a guest list is in operation to help the bars & clubs control the numbers of guests.

The guest lists give the managers a good indication of whether the night is going to be busy or not and if they are going to need extra stock, staff or security.

As for party goers getting on the guest list for clubs has its advantages as it improves your chances of getting in without a long wait, but it’s not a guarantee.

It may also eliminate or reduce the cover charge at some clubs and not at others.

Trying to get your names on guest list 20 minutes before arriving is a big “no, no”! As most guest lists have a cut off time, so submitting your list early is highly recommended.

For some clubs, it’s a simple matter of calling early in the evening and asking to be put on the guest list. You may be referred to the club website or a specific promoter.

What’s a promoter I hear you ask?

Well, you can check on my old posts on this blog explaining what promoters do, what their duties and responsibilities are (that includes my job!). But for the benefit of my new readers. A promoter is usually a person who promotes various events and night for bars and clubs and is usually rewarded with commission for every paying customer they bring.

Some promoters provide access to their guest list, especially for new clubs, through postings on social networking sites such as Facebook or Twitter and Instagram which is the most common way for promoters to get the word out to a large audience with the least amount of effort. As for me I maintain a blog for club promotion among other media platform.

Having your name on a guest list does not guarantee you and your guest entry to the bar or club, there are other factors at play, i.e. dress code, time of arrival, and most importantly your behaviour and attitude.

However there are ways of improving your chances of getting in also, like reserving a table and agreeing to minimum spends on bottle service can be the best way of bypassing the lines and guest list problem.

So before you plan your night out quickly do your homework on the venue of your choice and see what the entry requirements are and if you tick all the right boxes then you should have no problems at all.

Well that’s pretty much it on guest lists we hope you enjoyed our quick lesson and we welcome you to browse through some of our other blogs, hopefully they will be as helpful as this one.

Being on the VALKYRIE Nightclub guest list under Arvil Cabatic provides the following benefits:

• Get free entrance.
• Ladies get reduced cover charge or free entrance (every venue is different). With Valkyrie ladies get free entrance and complimentary drinks every Wednesday Night.
• Men and women skip the general admission line.
• Once you have signed up on the list, show up to the venue before 11pm and check in at the club’s designated area for guest lists. With Valkyrie it’s really that easy.

Shawn Mendes is a Canadian singer-songwriter. He attracted a following in 2013, when he began posting song covers on the popular video sharing application Vine. 

He will be hitting Manila with storm of his music this month.

Shawn Mendes will be bringing a playful and passionate performance to Manila on October 26, 2016 at Mall of Asia Arena.  The 17 year old teen pop sensation first began uploading videos of his covers on Vine, a social media video site and app, in 2013. Soon, his videos had been played millions of times and he had a legion of followers. This early fame was based on six-second clips of covers of many pop songs. By the summer of 2014, he was ranked number three in terms of followers on Vine. Andrew Gertler, artist manager, then came across Mendes early in 2014. He invited him to audition for Island Records, and Mendes was soon signed to the label. Island issued the teen’s single debut, “Life of the Party”, that June. The youngest musician to release a Top 25 debut on Billboard’s Hot 100, Mendes’ first song was ranked 24th in the week of July 12th, 2014.

Before getting signed to Island Records, Mendes was toured with MagCon, which included other social media stars and young artists. He had also been on a national tour as an opener for Austin Mahone. In July of 2014, Mendes released his self-titled debut. The release entered the Billboard 200 at number five, where it also peaked, and reached 48,000 in sales within a week of its release. Also that year, Mendes won Webstar in Music at the Teen Choice Awards.

Niall Horan's New Direction of Career

One Direction made history in the music industry , however each member has the own path in terms of their career nowadays, Niall Horan recently released his video of “This Town” and has over 6 million views as of this writing. 

Niall follows in the footsteps of Zayn Malik and Harry Styles, who are pursuing solo careers in music and the movies, respectively. Harry has been cast alongside screen vets Tom Hardy and Cillian Murphy in “Dunkirk,” Christopher Nolan’s World War II action-thriller about the Dunkirk evacuation during the Battle of France.

Niall Horan is making his presence felt, this time without his pals from One Direction—Harry Styles, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson—as he embarks on a solo career with the release of his debut single, “This Town.”

The hum-worthy song is a stripped-down number that turns on the mush, as Niall pines for an old flame who has “moved on with someone new.” In the guitar-driven pop ballad fueled by a toe-tapping folksy patter, he sings about his inability to let go: “It’s funny how things never change in this town/ (I’d) drive highways and byways to be there with you/ Over and over the only truth/ Everything comes back to you.”

The beautifully rendered track recalls the somber tone, melodic appeal and lyrical splendor of “You & I”—and it looks like the 23-year-old performer’s followers have come out in droves to support his solo venture.

Niall will reportedly team up with hot-to-trot Shawn Mendes in a track for his coming solo album. He has received congratulatory greetings from Harry, Louis and Liam,  (as of this writing) has yet to hear from Zayn, who figured in a Twitter feud with Louis last year

DINING IN THE DARK AT IT'S FINEST - " Noche - Dine in the Dark."

Dining in a casual or fancy restaurant has always been an obsession to me. The ambiance of the restaurants makes a great impact on my happiness as a person. 

There are restaurants where you can eat with a Wii controller in one hand and a bowl of panna cotta in the other, or paint a watercolor masterpiece while sipping wine, or enjoy your afternoon coffee surrounded by cute animals. The latest experiential dining concept to emerge in Manila is one you can’t miss.

Noche: Dine in the Dark Manila invites guests to experience their dinner in a whole new light: that is to say, in complete darkness.

WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU?

The menu items are not revealed prior to the meal and guests go in dark, both literally and figuratively, for the full experience. Cellphones, watches and any other devices that emit light are also not allowed in the pitch-black restaurant.

It may sound like eating in the dark is so easy you can do it with your eyes closed, but if anything, losing your sense of sight can make the experience a real challenge. Although, per the restaurant’s FAQs, “it is very rare to see someone not feeling comfortable with dining in the dark,” they've anticipated all the little adjustments guests will have to make.

Aprons and gloves are provided for those are worried about making a mess on their clothes. There will also be “darkness experts” to assist you and to ensure that everything goes smoothly. The wait staff are all either totally blind or severely visually impaired—the best people to guide you through your dinner in the dark since they are all perfectly used to navigating through their daily tasks without sight. The restaurant is also equipped with infrared cctv cameras for the guests' security.

Noche: Dine in the Dark Manila is located at the A. Venue Suites Hotel Makati and will be open for dinner service at 6:00 pm and 8:00 pm every Friday, Saturday and Sunday starting October 14, 2016. - See more at: www.dineindarkmanila.com

DRESS TO IMPRESS with "The Filo Dapper"

Yuppies or young men are starting their professional lives without a clue as to how to dress.

Young men are the future leaders of society, and dressing sharp is the first step towards becoming a professional.

Let me be clear. Clothing does not make the man……It does not define who he is , but I know a lot of people will agree to me that "the way you dress shows what manner you have".

The right clothing can give a young man precious seconds to make his case and influence others. A young lawyer, consultant, medical professional, or salesman needs to understand this. That being said – it’s important to note that it is worth paying attention to your clothing as a young man even if you’re working in a field without strict dress codes.

Tradesmen, welders, carpenters, and construction workers must know that our clothing still matters as it introduces us and tells our story before we open our mouth. Crisp, clean, and well fitted clothing – wherever you are at in the world – encourages others to take you more seriously.

We are so lucky that we have The Filo Dapper to guide us in choosing the right clothes to wear and how to mix and match with out compromising being stylish and to look sharp.

www.filodapper.com

The Filo Dapper is AJ Dee's fashion blog  according to him the idea of creating a fashion blog came to me during my travels. I like to tell a story through my style.  On his blog you will be able to see that he has an exceptional fashion sense. Not only that he also have a heart for people that is in battle with cancer. The Filo Dapper helps  National Children’s Hospital, aiming to support the needs of the children such as their treatments and medications. He calls it "Fashion with Compassion". 

You have to check out his blog as well as follow him in Instagram you will be inspired to dress up. Many men nowadays are getting smart in choosing the right clothes I know that Filo Dapper will be able to guide you more in dressing up smart.

Instagram post of The Filo Dapper

The Filo Dapper is also a YouTube content creator on his channel you'll see how he creates story while he showcase his fashion ideas. Here's a video where he shows his fall essentials.

Main-stream fashion trends change too fast to make useful wardrobe staples. Most young men don’t have the budget to buy new pants every month or two — so stay away from pants that are only presentable during an “in” season.

Distressed or bleached jeans are a great example; several different designer labels briefly managed to sell the image on the public, and then the fad changed and left a lot of people with very expensive jeans too beat-up to wear in public.

Stick to classic clothing staples for the core of your wardobe and avoid anything that’s too far out on the cutting edge — even if you see something that makes it look good.

I was so lucky that I had the chance to ask Mr. AJ Dee a.k.a The Filo Dapper on what should young men wear in an upscale club like Valkyrie.

He replied : " Well, I would suggest something dressy. Sharp but still comfortable. A button down shirt matched with a trouser and a loafer, or a pullover and a dark denim with a white luxe sneakers for a more casual yet dapper look".

I am not an expert when it comes to fashion but here's my take on dressing to impress:

TIP #1 - If you’ve never owned really good shoes before, brace yourself and get ready to pay a significant amount of money for well-made, classic footwear.

TIP # 2 - Well cut and classically styled trousers will make you look a little sharper at social occasions than jeans.They’re less common in a young crowd, so you’ll already be standing out, and a good pair of slacks has a drape and crease that looks much crisper than denim.

TIP # 3 - Wearing T-shirts to social events or to work is a no-no.

Thank you Mr. AJ Dee for allowing me to feature you on my simple blog. I know that my fellow finest clubbers learned a lot from your social media accounts. More power to The Filo Dapper.

BEHIND THE MASK OF DAFT PUNK

Daft Punk is a French electronic music duo consisting of producers Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter. The two achieved significant popularity in the late 1990s as part of the French house movement, and were met with continuous success in the years following, combining elements of house music with funk, techno, disco, rock, and synthpop influences.

 

They are also known for their visual stylization and disguises associated with their music; specifically, the duo have worn ornate helmets and gloves to assume robot personas in most of their public appearances since 2001. They rarely grant interviews or appear on television.

Daft Punk are noted for their use of visual components associated with their musical productions. The music videos for their singles from Homework featured distinctive characters and placed emphasis on storytelling instead of musical performance. The album Discovery subsequently became the soundtrack to Interstella 5555.

www.djmag.com

Earlier this week, an article from DJ Mag was released statin that "Daft Punk were rumoured to be touring in 2017 but now reports have come that the robots live return has been greatly exaggerated.

Consequence of Sound reports that an “industry source” has confirmed that Daft Punk have no plans to perform live next year."

Speaking on online forum/aggregator Reddit, Consequence of Sound founder, Alex Young, went on to say that sources have confirmed “they aren’t accepting live offers”.

There is still currently no official word from the Daft Punk camp.

The timing would fit with Daft Punk's past touring itinerary, with the duo playing live once every 10 years — they played at Glastonbury in '97, followed by Wireless, Rockness and Oxegen festivals 10 years later in 2007.

Daft Punk recently featured on The Weeknd's new single 'Starboy', the first outing since their LP 'Random Access Memories' in 2013.

GO-TO-CLUBBING MAKE UP ? NO PROBLEM WITH MS. JOYCE SOLA

I know that I have a lot of readers and guests that have questions on how they should look every time they visit Valkyrie or The Palace Pool Club. And I know that aside from the perfect club wear from Forever 21 or H&M there’s one more thing that all girls like to spend time on before they go for a night out and that’s the clubbing makeup look. Pulling off the perfect makeup look can be a little tricky. You’ll want something that’s fun and pretty but also a little sexy and flirty. You want to look chic, sleek and a little edgy and not (and I mean never) trashy or cheap. Of course it is Valkyrie that you are going to and you want to look elegant to match the ambiance of the club. On top of it all, you’ll want your makeup to stay on your face until the end of the night until DJ Mars Miranda close his set for the night so you don’t end up looking like you have a messy blob for a face. 

I am not an expert when it comes to make up. From the right primer up to the setting powder, and the right combination of eyeshadow and how to make your eyeliner on fleet. And of course the eyebrows!!!
