I wasn't too sure what PERFECTO meant, but apparently they do take house music to another level. This particular Saturday was a 4th of July, so everywhere was going to be packed. Gf and I thought it would be logical that we try a place where we are already on the guestlist. XS's guestlist was completely shutdown for the weekend. We had to check in at the tanning salon which was a 15 minute wait, then we had to wait another 2 full hours in line before we got through.
First thing I checked when I walked through and got stamped was if there was reentry. I wasn't going to pay the discounted cover of $20 if I wasn't allowed back in. Regular price would be $50 off the guestlist, and probably a $30/ head bribe to the bouncer which a lot of people were doing. Either ways I saw this worthwhile since a Kaskade concert would've cost probably 4x as much.
I went in and I noticed that the place was incredibly LOUD. The place is shaped like madmax's thunderdome and it manages to keep all the bass in. I love the way it is designed for house music with all the light shows and screens. I also saw several performers in the sky tight roping across when the music was blasting. I m sure they have ear plugs up there. Most importantly, the music was off the hook. Kaskade almost blew the roof off the place. If you guys don't know who Kaskade is, go on Youtube and look up his stuff. He is incredible.
The only reason why I can't give this place a 5 star is because its located at the Palms hotel. Its bit aways from the strip, and parking a mess is there. I highly suggest parking across the street. Second of all, the crowd control by the bouncers is terrible. I am almost certain that they are looking to tick people off and force them to bribe to get in. Lastly, the smoking hot factor was not there. Sure the babes go go dancing had it all together, but they don't count for the female ratio. The ones on the dance floor were a little bit weird looking, could be because they were rave junkies instead of your regular everyday clubbies. I am sure the lack of VIP tables in the club had something to do with it. Less tables, means less bottle [--], thus less hot looking women. It all makes sense.
Despite these small mishaps, I would come back for another Perfecto with Oakenfold. If you love house music, this is THE place to be on a Saturday. Go there for the music, not the women.
