I always just ended up going to Killkenny's when I went out with friends.

"Posh bars" are overrated IMO. I've been to a few in California and they're nothing exciting.

I think that is where Cowboys is different. They are that hole in the ground place but want to be the posh nightclub.

Places like CBGBs is one that just comes to mind, although not a club per se. Great little hole in the wall dump of a club but popular for the right reasons. No one at CBGBs ever got denied because they weren't "cool" enough to get in. Cowboys tends to be incredibly pretentious in their attitude IMO. They need to be more accepting of their ghetto side. They aren't a 5 star nightclub.
