I think Opium also owns the nightclub, “SET” which is on 17th and Washington Avenue. Both clubs stand by the same discriminating policy where the bouncers are rude and select who they wish to enter. It does not matter that you have an invitation or you are with a party. I had an invitation and a wristband to SET on Thursday May 2. A bouncer let an older-looking party of people with women in their group barely clothed before us; But he did not let me and my friend inside because he said, “you need to wear a wristband-no exceptions.” Then we put on our wristbands which bore the name, “SET”. Just then, an older bouncer stepped forward but refused to let us inside saying “I’m sorry but you two are not dressed appropriately.” My friend was dressed like a typical clubber but he was wearing a visor cap on his head. He asked the bouncer, “Sir, what is not appropriate? is it my hat?, well I’ll take it off then.” My friend removed his hat and looked like a typical 32-year-old guy at a nightclub clad in black slacks and a dark long-sleeved button shirt. As for myself, and I am a nice-looking woman, I wore black slacks and a lavender blouse which I wore to a gallery prior to this after party at SET. The bouncer was still dissatisfied by our attire and went on to tell us, “I’m sorry but you are innapropriately dressed and I can’t describe why” to which he turned his back to us and started talking about us to the younger-looking bouncers and they started snickering.
