Was talking to one of the bar owners in the area recently; They prefer having something like "80's nights" as this draws the older crowd... meaning those who spend for several drinks and food and not some guy who'll nurse a san Mig Light over the next two hours.

The nail on the coffin also was the 2am curfew as the regular party goers and spenders don't really get on until well after 1 or 2am... and people don't get tipsy enough to start spending on the next few drinks with his credit card. hehehe.
80's night? Where? Where?



Never did get the idea of bar hopping. I mean, I've done it, but it's much more fun to go to a smaller place, where all your real friends are, and have a few brews while talking.

You go out to the popular places, and there's always a big crowd, it's hard to get seats... the guys in the next table over will reek of marijuana, giving you a cheap secondhand high... sometimes there's a fight... a stabbing... a shooting... I think I went to Mars (at the height of its notoriety) just once... the air was thick enough to kill you if you inhaled deeply. And I still remember Euphoria. Last time we went there, the garbage can caught fire, so we ended up on the sidewalk at 3 am while smoke poured out of the entrance.

The Embassy? Never got the attraction. It's just a damn bar. Full of rich and popular people, but it's still just a damn bar. If I want to do celebrity watching, I'll turn on the TV, thanks. :hysterical:

My scene is more the jazz bar or cafes with solo acoustic performers. Just don't get out much, anymore...
