Same club: 2 different floors, 2 different crowds? There's a nice lounging area upstairs with comfortable couches. The crowd seems more calm, mature, sophisticated. The downside: not much dancing. If you want to dance, you gotta go downstairs. Downstairs is dark, crowded, and HOT HOT HOT (temperature hot, not can I get your number hot). There's a fan blasting at the corner but unless you're standing nearby, be ready to feel uncomfortable. What's even more uncomfortable is the higher ratio of creepier guys standing by the walls staring at you and your friends. Can't we find a happy medium?? Can't we have the more mature crowd upstairs dancing the night away in a more spacious dance floor? I guess you really can't have the best of both worlds.

I've only been once but I really enjoyed Vertigo... the $5 Polk Punch was the best because it tasted like a popsicle (as I ran around all night telling everyone!) but got the job done. A bar with jello shots also wins points from me... I went with a bunch of friends for a friend's birthday and had a great time. The music was alright and dancing on the little stage area was very fun. The outside area was small and not super exciting but a good place to chat since it was a little bit quieter than inside... The bar was busy but not too busy to move around or order a drink. Overall, a fun time!

I'm no architect, but I estimate you could fit about three or four normal - sized clubs inside the enormous Compound. This place is MAMMOTH. There are advantages to a club this size: each room is unique, so if you don't like the vibe or music in one spot, you can easily relocate. There are a number of rooms with cozy couches and others with mesmerizing music and wide spaces to dance. The downside is the challenge to keep track of your friends and that cute guy across the room with whom you shared an intimate moment (sigh). Keep in mind that someone going to "the bar" has entered infinity and may never be seen again. You might spend the night solo hunting your friends, which isn't so pleasant. Or perhaps you will meet some friendly strangers. A variety of people frequent this club: locals, people traveling, college and grad students, younger and older professionals, etc. If you have the chance to speak with someone over the spinning music, you might have an interesting conversation. Remember this place is expensive - $10-$20 to enter, and a mixed drink is at least $8. If you are willing to spend the money and aren't intimidated by large venues and crowds, you are likely to have a great time.
