Sure, it was a typical Miami club atomosphere on a busy night but I've never seen such an unprofessional attitude from a club that's supposedly so "high-end".

yup, a club liaison is your best friend (or should be)
I didn't attend the party nor do I know all of what went on aside from what I've seen posted on boards....but from that, my opinion is that there weren't enough people assigned to the event.
If Lisa was expected to do everything on her own, then that can be way too much responsibility (especially if it's her first time doing such an event). There should have been a ground crew of some sort. There should have been a liaison overseeing things for the club. I'm amazed that D-Money is able to pull off some of the things he does with the Player's Ball with such a small crew (unless there area lot of behind the scenes guys). I've given them flack over the years, but understand what a huge undertaking somthing like that can be.
It seems to me, as an outsider, that it was just too big of a project for one person to handle. Add in a live band and it can be even more difficult because now you are dealing with bands and their riders and making sure they are taken care as well as sponsors, attendees, support staff and even the club employees.
