Summary

A collection of true short stories based on the years that I have worked on the doors in the UK and abroad. This book is a real insight into the funny, tragic, and completely bizarre people and experiences encountered by a doorman. 

Working doors on and off for the best part of 20 years, I have seen a hell of a lot, maybe too much! My book contains a collection of short stories all based on true events that either I, or someone that I have worked with and know well, have experienced. Yes, maybe there is a bit of artistic license in there, but only a bit. Names have been changed to protect the innocent and the guilty! Only listen to this book if you are ready for side-splitting humor and a look at the more tragic side of the night-time economy, all by a still-active licensed doorman. 

With foreword by best-selling author of the genre and creator of Tough Talk magazine Robin Barratt. Ivan "Doc" Holiday, American TV star of Roadhouse Rehab, tells us the differences in the trade between the UK, Canada, and the USA, and Ryder Scott, star of Channel 4’s Bouncers, gives us his take on what it was like to be part of the show and how he feels it was portrayed.
