Hi Guys! Actually i don't wanna start discussion i want to share my yesterday's very bad experience in GT BANANA night club. I'm not club goer as i'm not interested in drinking and night life. But i visited this club for a few times and actually used to think this place is quite nice. Untill tomorrow. That what happened tomorrow is beyond of anyone's expectation and imagination.
What we have: in total 5 people (me and my friends) - 2 girls and 3 guys, not drunk of any sort 'caus we come to the bar at around 23:30 and have to leave already at 00:45, all people are working in good companies and have good income (me myself is an art-director with 9 year experience in advertising design), one of my friends this year finishing his doctorate in Beida in biochemistry field and so on (I really want you to understand that we are not the drank band of people but just 5 people which didn't anything which can cause what happen later). After spend about 45 minutes in the bar dancing i feel it's to hot and my heart start beating quite fast (lately i got problems with blood pressure) so i told my friends i want to go out for some time. One of my friends go with me. We stayed out too long so another of my friends go to have a look in case we need help (i left my cell phone at home). He went out of the bar we talk and he said he will go to buy water (outside of the bar)... in this few seconds the other friend who was with me saw me shivering and propose we go to back to the club and wait for our another friend between outside and inside doors. When our friend come the security saw he has a bottle of water, he went out and said you can't drink here, my friend start argue but i said that's ok security is right (actually i was against that my friend go to buy water in the first place), i said: "ok, ok, let's go out!" after that my friend said: "what the f*** it's so cold!" (he said it in english though we was speaking chinese before)
Than we were near out of the bar than the security guard run and grab my friend shouting:
- Do you think you speak english i can't understand? f*** who? Who do you say to f***? Wanna f*** with me? I will f*** you (all in chinese, using a lot of very REALLY BAD words, i can write this words in Chinese but i think those who know Chinese know what i mean)
My friend said:
- Why you do this? I wasn't talking to you?
I said:
- Did you hear what did he said exactly? Did he call your name or something? Why you think you can grab client and talk like this?
After what security said:
- I can talk like this, I talk like this what you can do??? I'm NB (牛逼). What you do to me? - He shout at me and come very close and agressive.
My friends become quite frightened because it was just something out of nothing and it look like this security will beat even me (a girl!!!) and said: "That's ok, that's ok calm down!" Over security come and that guy go inside, my friend throw away this bottle 'cause no one was going to drink water anyway. We were stunned for a minutes and then i just think "it's impossible to leave like that i was working in the bar as a party photographer, designer and a kind of PR while studing in Shenzhen Uni, now i'm also sometimes work as a photographer at the rock-concerts for www.rockyear1999.com and this behaviour of the person who should make you feel "secure" is just too much to be accepted!" So i went inside and ask to call manager but other security guards said:
-Go and look yourself!
Reception girl also reject to call manage playing stupid: "I really don't know where is the manage how to call" though they all have radio. At last one girl called for the senior security guard. At this was just the finally unbelievable thing. The senior security guard first play stupid and talk about water thing. After i told him that no one was going to drink this water inside and problem is not the water but the unexplaiable behaviour of their stuff that guy said:
- If you don't like you can go away, i come down anyway (or you make me come down) i will not so easily back upstairs so i can help you to get out if you can't decide for yourself!!!
That's nice... we payed 210 RMB for entrance and around 250 RMB for drinks (i guess some beer was left inside untouched) and we can get out. We payed 1/4 of his month salary during one hour, we didn't fight, didn't swear, weren't drunk WE DID TOTALLY NOTHING TO GET THIS KIND OF ATTITUDE BUT WE GOT IT.
He rejected to tell me his name as well and didn't wear the badge. He rejected to call manage and he was very offensive, agressive and rude. We decided just leave 'cause all were so shocked and in no mood to have fun anymore.

I really don't want other people to face this kind of attitude. So, I really believe that these people in GT Banana should be punished, if anyone has some contacts with management there, i would be really greatful if you let the manager know the behavior of their security guard. As i really believe or hope that this can't be normal in their management eyes.

It was friday night or we can even say today (29.01-30.01 around 00:40-45 if manager looked at the camera recordings he or she could saw who was it (i mean there stuff)

Went there for the Infected Mushroom concert - this is definitely a Chivas and VIP table joint, with gaggles of people doing the VIP treatment and expensive mobile showing off because really nothing else is happening at my table thing.
The exotic dancers were a rather bad joke - basically a five minute 'show' every now and then with the bouncers coming on and threatening the dancers. Just something for the local crowd but really a joke on us all.
Drinks are utter crap , at least they are not overly expensive, but ask for a Chivas and coke and what you get is mostly ice, fake Chivas and very little coke. You won't get drunk on this and if you do, your head will regret it. The mojito is better but also with fake alcohol. The 'free' frink with your ticket is so fake it's a laugh, never had such a watered down 'vodka' in my life.
And now the music. Well once you get through the very tedious pre concert DJ Spark - if he could play one tune in a loop he would, as this is essentially what it sounds like, and your ears are still alive, then comes the main act. at 1AM.
The volume is so cranked up and is essentially only bass that it is just utter crap. You cannot hear a single word that is being 'sung', half of the drums (tom toms) are missing and anything over 200Khz and below 2000 is besically aural assault at 90% distortion. We had to leave after less than an hour as it was unbearable. My ears are still ringing.
With a sound system that is so intent on aural damage I can't recommend going to this place more than once in every aeon, and there is nothing else there that is so compelling that I can think I want to go back. So try somewhere else.
