05.25.09 | Best clubs are in England and they have Lord Henry Wotton in them. |

05.25.09 | they rule over here in the uk. and what kind of music would you want them to play? list title should be edited to nightclubs are not for internet geeks. |
Metalstyles
05.25.09 | well Red you do have a point, but Kane is right, what kind of a music would you actually expect from a nightclub. It is pretty darn certain that the playlists in nightclubs consist of only techno, Drum n bass, mainstream rap and pop music. |

05.25.09 | No Benzum, its making money from people who like to dance drunk. Intelligence has absolutely nothing to do with clubbing. |
lauriej
05.25.09 | clubs in england are wank, i see it as more of a social event with your mates though. ignore the faggots and plastic women, ignore the shitty venue and music, and have a great time with your mates. and don't whine on the internet about it! |
lauriej
05.25.09 | probably not, but it's stupid not to drink. it's nowhere near as much fun without booze. |
scyther
05.25.09 | Well yeah, dancing sober is widely regarded as a fun activity. There are clubs that cater to individuals under the drinking age and they are fun simply because of the social gathering aspect, which is really the whole point of all clubs. These days the alcohol does make it a different atmosphere definitely but I don't think its imperative to keep the club running. Booze really just makes people who suck at dancing think they can and makes people who suck at sex think they don't. |

05.25.09 | lol scyther don't start another raging thread like yesterday. booze is fun. end of. |

clubs don't suck but this is so true & has been my aim for about a year now (latter of the 3 genres) |
NovaSilver
05.25.09 | The funny thing here is an actual queer nightclub probably wouldn't have most of these problems. Anyway way to be a snob about these things, even if I personally agree with your taste in music. |
BallsToTheWall
05.25.09 | If Orlando had a bro-club filled with bro's ands sister's or whatever you all a bro chick with Winds Of Plague, Evergreen terrace and such bands playing I'd go every weekend. I prefer sports clubs more than anything to just drink a beer, socialize, and watch U.F.C fights or playoff games. |

05.25.09 | "If you opened a nightclub that specialized in Grindcore or Indie or even Pop-punk you'd make thousands each week."
there's a metal nightclub in my hometown which is basically a laughing stock. they make a bit of money but thats usually just due to lots of people drinking while laughing at the headbangers and air guitarists, a good way to start the night. gets pretty good after 12 though, when you're trashed enough to dance and shred with metalheads. |
gaslightanthem
05.25.09 | no just no clubs should do dance/hip hop/popular music creates the best overall atmosphere for the majority. i dont mind the occasional indie/metal/alternative nights but they aren't as good and don't draw anywhere near the same amount of people. i go to clubs to dance and meet hot girls not to admire the technicality or originality of the music |

05.25.09 | silent discos ftw. everybody happy! |
BallsToTheWall
05.25.09 | What the fuck, arent you like 17? Shit i'm 20 and have to get marked to get in. And either way, I generally avoid these kind of places when not sponsoring any kind of sporting event. Which in itself is a waste of my time and money of going. |

05.25.09 | if you're talking to me balls i am 18 and that's all you have to be in the uk to drink, go clubbing etc |

05.25.09 | It just requires the right amount of alcohol to enjoy a club. Drunk enough i find myself skanking like an idiot to whatever garbage is on, Katy Perry, Soulja boy, blah blah. |

07.11.09 | I'm fairly certain Destroy All Lines runs those sorts of clubs you were talking about in the capital cities in Australia, i think the ones in Sydney are called Club Blink and theres also one called Club Trash. |

12.07.09 | Yea I know this is an old list -- but it was referenced on your list from today... I missed the original party (get it?) so...
A lot of people on this thread are complaining that clubs only play a certain type of music, etc.. Where is everyone from? In Chicago, it's pretty much common knowledge that if you don't want faux hawks, techno and a general douche atmosphere, you don't go to the traditional "club." There are sports bars, pubs, hip-hop bars, metal bars (Exit, fuck yes, blood all over the walls and shit), biker bars, dive bars, raves, indie warehouse parties, etc..
Yeah, I hate clubs, which is why I don't go to them... |

12.07.09 | A concert is way better, hands down, any day of the week. |

12.07.09 | ^well, yeah, but unless you're seeing a local show (and a lot of those can be brutally bad; at least around here) it can be quite a bit more expensive than the other options I listed. |
