step right up!

Check out today's Life on Page 2. It is reported that the general manager of MoS, Mr Terry Lumb, has been sacked after the club received many complaints on long queues to enter the club.

Ha ha!

It is said in the article that queues outside the club stretches an average of 50m. What an understatement! When I was there 3 Fridays ago, it was at least 100-200m long! Just one look at the snaking queue and we decided to go elsewhere. A week later, we also abandoned our plans to visit the place on New Year's Eve after learning that we'd have to queue even if we had bought advance tickets. It was a good thing we did - according to the article, the queue that day went past Hill Street all the way to Merchant Court. How ridiculous!

Barely a month old, MoS is already fast gaining notoriety for its uber long queues. Anyone you ask, be it your colleagues, friends or friends' friends, knows about it. Rumours are also going around that despite the queues, the club itself is quite empty inside! This led some to postulate that this is a deliberate tactic to attract publicity and hype. Well, intentionally or not, it certainly did - for all the wrong reasons. And partygoers are avoiding the place now.

Hopefully, the situation will improve now that the club has taken action. I certainly hope it'll be third time lucky for me the next time I decide to go there. Come my friends, let's plan our next visit! :D
