Storel:
What does it say about me that I've never been a regular in any bar that had -- or needed -- a bouncer?
(Other than that I haven't been a regular in very many bars?)
Tova:
I dunno - that they are unobtrusive in the bars you went to, maybe. :)

This is unlikely. At many upscale bars (not "frat boy" type bars or dives), the bouncer is usually a "host" and somewhat well dressed. Or an "usher". "Bouncer" is really a low class term in certain security circles.
If you were in a place that "didn't have" a bouncer, chances are you just didn't notice them or recognize them for what they were.
Neko_Ali:
Or you have been to very small bars, or bars in larger establishments like hotels. Most of my personal experience with bouncers has been at clubs, checking IDs and watching out for trouble makers. When I do go to bars it tends to be smaller ones like the one Brun worked at, or it's in a restaurant or something. They tend not to have dedicated security people. Either the bartender/owner handles it if need be, or it's part of whatever business they are located inside of.
Storel:
The only bar at which I was ever really a regular was an open-mic piano bar. Any customer who wanted to sing could ask the piano player for a turn and sing a couple of songs -- anything the piano player knew how to play, and she knew a lot of songs. I went there frequently enough for long enough that I'm positive they didn't have a bouncer, security guard, host or whatever. I don't remember ever even seeing a fight there. Perhaps a bar like that attracts a different sort of clientele than most bars.
