Perversion @ Los Globos

This place needs to be shut down. Not only have I heard MULTIPLE stories about how scandalous this place is but I was a witness to it last night. All the security guards at this place are overly aggressive and need to be checked up for licenses, background checks, and drug tests. As a security guard I’m positive you’re not supposed to physically push people until they are out the door unless they are resisting. I KNOW THE SECURITY GUARDS ARENT SUPPOSED TO USE PEPPER SPRAY UNLESS A LARGE FIGHT BREAKS OUT OR THE SECURITY WAS FEELING THREATENED. This «guard» was almost 7ft tall, very large and extremely aggressive. Sneaking in is obviously not something they are going to take lightly but using words like «get the fuck out of here fat ass» and pushing someone out the door is obviously going to cause some tension. If he felt «threatened» in any way, why would he say something like that and push a girl multiple times and not expect her to turn around and try and say something??? This guard put himself in that situation and was wondering why he was getting in trouble in the first place. I know for a fact that was the strongest pepper spray you can legally have because the two victims were in pain still 3 hours later. As a witness I did see two people try and sneak back in but I also saw them not resisting and the guard continuously pushed a girl basically trying to provoke her to do something while this guard is ready with pepper spray in his hand. This girl didn’t even have time to react after he insulted her he immediately sprayed her, turned the pepper spray can and sprayed a guy who was doing absolutely nothing, then proceeds to spray the girl in the face, literally two inches from her face. I saw the guard spray the pepper spray directly into the guys eye and after that he just up and leaves. I called the police and they were useless, didn’t surprise me. But as I was standing there listening to what the guard had to say. He was lying to try and get himself out of it saying «she tried to hit me, he was in the way» made me sick that someone could do that then not admit, you did it, ADMIT IT. What kind of «man» are you. This place has its own problems and the police aren’t doing jack shit to fix it. Never coming back or promoting this club again.

New Home For Perversion Has The Right Vibe!
SITREP
Perversion is one of the most awesome Club Nights generated by the eclectic «Evil Club Empire» (
) cadre of hard-​working DJs, that includes mastermind DJ Bruce Perdew.
THE SETUP
I’ve enjoyed this stalwart Thursday night mainstay in the Gothic-​Industrial-​EBM-​Darkwave dance-​world as it has resided in many incarnations in the Hollywood /​Los Angeles nexus for a very long time. I first hit Perversion in fact in the late 90s when it was on Hollywood Blvd itself. It moved around a bit, most recently at 333 Live in downtown L.A. itself.
LOS GLOBOS
Now the club-​event has come to Los Globos on W. Sunset Blvd in the Silverlake community. This particular night is actually it’s 2^nd Thursday at this location and I have to admit that the venue is a really nice fit for the music format and the crowd.
SECOND FLOOR EXPERIENCE
It’s kind of funny — the Perversion crowd waits outside until 10pm to be let it, but there is access to go in and out of the club itself since the 1^st floor is taken over by live bands. In fact, I think the 1^st floor crowd is a bit taken with the get-​up and dressed-​to-​kill Perversion crowd.
And as soon as 10pm hit, the Perversion crowd is let in, and immediately proceed to the stairwell at the left leading up to the massive 2^nd Floor club level with it’s own large bar and it’s own 2 different dance rooms.
LARGE MAIN ROOM
This is where DJ Bruce Perdew resident-​djs and it’s the bigger dance floor with a bigger area for seating around the perimeter of the dance floor. There’s also a stage, though not in use on this night.
THE RED LEATHER OCTAGON
This is where DJ Jason (The Duke) resides, and it was a great night of swirly goth and dark wave standards in this locale.
Now THIS room is rather choice — lush red leather walls, with embedded panels of mirrors in each of the eight (8) walls, to watch yourself dance (which LOTS of the sexy pretties like to do), and to look at the sexy pretties via the mirror to make your gazing not-​so-​obvious (which I like to do) ;)
There is a small bar area, but not open — just easier to go outside to the large bar on the off the main dancefloor and get your refreshments of choice from there.
REST ROOM LIGHTSHOW
Last place you expect to *oonze oonze*, but the Men’s Room had it’s own vibe this evening (not what you think, though) ;)
«When New Shit Hits Ya — #37» — Walking into the 2^nd Floor Men’s Room off the main dance floor, then standing at the urinal, it was all of the sudden a bit disconcerting (at first) to see that the bathroom lights changing colors until I realized they were part of the synchronization of the main dance floor. And then getting hit with explosions of laser light reflected off of the bathroom mirror hit you in the face from off the mirror (since there is not closed door entering the men’s room). *hiLARious!*
THE CROWD
The über-​goth and the Industrial-​Krowd were in full residence on this night. It was a wonderful experience to be immersed in this eccentric wondrous community of Old School mixed with the Newer School of denizens.
THE LOWDOWN
Perversion rises to new heights at Los Globos!
