Cory,
Looks good dude. Did you set the lighting up? Shot 24PA letterbox? I'm new at this... I've only had my DVX a short while and I have a show I want to shoot.
Keep up the good work.

Tip: Desature it, especially the first shot, tint it a suiting colour and make the black - black. Without blowing it out. Repost when done. Let me check it out.

Here is a fast example...

I think it needs a little less red and a bit higher contrast.

Maybe try to get more light in there next time.
Any footage?
 
It's been my experience filming in clubs that you're lucky enough to get the camera in the door, dictating on how the lighting is set up is usually out of the question. Usually you just end up opening the iris all the way up and get what you get. Your grabs don't look half bad.
 
I agree with Bradbro - too many bad experiences with lighting in clubs - fudge with the CC and give it a more distinctive look - I don't mind meshing color temperatures but this is a little garrish for me. Post a clip so we can see some of it in action.
