Why so LOUD? Does Noise = $$$?

At some clubs, there's a big effort to get everybody to make a lot of NOISE. Not just appreciation for the girl dancing onstage. More like a constant din, like the 4th quarter of a tight football game. The DJ's always yelling stuff like, "Come on, people, it's Friday night! Let's hear some noise!"
My question is why? Do clubs make more money when it's noisy? Do the girls? Because it doesn't necessarily look like it. The girl onstage may make more tips, but I can't believe more guys want to get dances when it's like that. I sure don't. I usually leave. Do that many guys agree to go to the VIP room just to escape the ruckus? Mostly, the club just seems to fill up with young guys standing around holding a beer pumping their fist and whooping it up, not spending. So, the club sells more beer.
The thing is, not all clubs do this. I know of a few that are wildly successful without always playing the noise card. So what's going on? And do you feel like spending more when it's LOUD?
Got something to say?
