WE visited this club/bar after we found Velocity on a Friday frickin night to be a big BOOOO!!!. I had emailed before we traveled to Charlotte a picture of my partner and I to Liasons. They still had a copy of it at front entrance, LOLOLOLOL, what a hoot that was, they were very friendly, welcoming unlike Velocity and extremely hospitable.
I must say we really wanted to dance but this sufficed in that we were around friendly people. What was so funny is that every worker recognized us from the pic I had sent. That is what I call being welcomed. If anything else as a reason to visit this place, its for the friendly staff. This makes a world of difference in how a club is perceived.
If I could give any advice to Velocity, be more inviting to your guests. We are not just dollar signs for you.
