Sunset Lounge, Escondido

I guess I need to get back in there. I can't see that place as a club, and is there really enough room for it to be considered a "club" come on they go rid of WOODY's now they get rid of sunset. Dude that sucks. Really when we wanna party it up we have places like the gas lamp and stuff if we want our little hole in the walls we keep it local and go to our kareoke places and our bars. That's too bad. Oh well I guess all there is left is what's that biker bar on Grand called? ewww and I really hate it there.

All this stuff for one reason... Sunset has been around for years and been through many "Owner" changes. some good some not so good. but through all those changes the regular crowd has sustained the business. When you say why not look at all the different requests (karaoke, dancing, music, conversation, entertainment) and cater to all of them. Well it doesn't seem to be working.
I did approach the owner directly. I am a karaoke singer. I have bben going to sunset at least once a week for 8 count them Eight years. i don't always spend a ton of money but a steady 100-150 on average a month. and i have brought a lot of people in over time. NOt any more.
I was told that i basically could just take it or leave it when instead of the advertised Karaoke, we had one and one half hours of what is loosely called dance music when they kept announcing that there was a Forty (40 mind you) person wait for singing.
Business... hmmm.... truth in advertising is one aspect that has not been addressed.
the idea of advertising karaoke and not providing it is not what i call truth in advertising, when they separated out a night for dancing that was fine i switched days and idn't mind waiting for singers if singers were being brought up! i even didn't mind whe the KJ was arrogant and rude to the singers. I didn't even mind that the kj sang instead of taking him/herself out of the rotation so customers could sing as is usual kj etiquette. but when i am told that this is a dance and karaoke club and we would just have to deal with "dry humping " on the dance floor called dancing these days (yess i am older than you!!!) i get pretty fed up. I love to dance and will dance all night long given the opportunity but i dance top what singers sing!!! hello it's says KARAOKE on the signs and in the advertisements!! but no that is not the truth any more.
As to underage... welll i am no longer sure i have seen some that do not appear old enough but again i am older and may be mistaken but really .....
haven't witnessed the other stuff... don't want to and will not stick around to see.
sorry but it's no longer my cup of tea, or shot of T or what ever... good luck if you really bring back karaoke and actuallly try to cater to ALL your clients instead of just the friends of your kids maybe your regulars will come back.
PS... for evelyn about Nick if my
Cook was making threats on line about "Special Sauce" being added to burgers, i would wathch out for HEalth code enforcement. also when you exceed the legal number of clients and are not picky about ID'ing all, your should be looking for fire safety inspectors and copes checking id's!!! no threat just a suggestion!

Sorry to say that after reading all the reviews on here, I can share some of the complaints. First off about Evelyn, if you think she's not professional, she is she's just nice to everyone.
The karaoke B*!(# , sorry to say this is a BAR and there are people there to sing and dance all at the same time. So why not cater to everyone to please all your customers and keep them coming back. Last time I checked that's how you make a business grow!!!! Now all the people that are on here B*!(# and complaining, is there anything you can say nice about the bar. I mean damn it must be something because you were going there for a while to have all these complaints.
Could it be that out off all the bars in ESCO you can't find no where better to hang out except the "dive" bar as you put it? Now for the people fussing about karaoke there is a new show on Tuesday that you can go to if you don't like Fri, Sat, and Sun, but instead of talking bad about people how about give them suggestions. Be a real man or woman and tell people to their faces instead of gonig on the internet and calling them names.
Now Sid can be a bit pushy and an asshole, but that's him, and the same goes for Paul. If you really know these people that's how they are. But Shasta is a very nice girl and doesn't deserve to be call Fatty on here, just because you don't like her or she didn't give you any play.
Damn grow up people, and that's all I have to say.

Have a nice day,
