people go to a club because the music is good, even at the shittiest of popular venues
everything follows from there
If a know a place that has angry bouncers or annoying rules, I rather go to a place that he less then ideal music.
One local club has a rule that you can't drink water from the bathroom tab, and they even turn off the cold water. I'm not going there, even when the music is fire.
It's more about the atmosphere, who's there and the mood you're looking for that night.
