Are you past it?

Depends. CLUBBING definitely. Going out to wine/gin bars and rum shacks then casinos hell no.

Disco

Yes.

I only ever liked sitting at a bar having a pint even back in my younger days, so I'm definitely not past it as I can do that easily. Though the smoking ban took some of the gloss off it.
Always hated clubs and anything else like that.

Depends what you mean. I've been past the bog standard R&B playing dross since I was about 20. I'd still happily rock up at a Richie Hawtin et al night though.

I still like the odd night out at a Casino or Bar, although having a 1 year old has obviously taken its toll on that.

I find it hard to be arsed going to clubs anymore but that's not due to thinking I'm too old for it. I'm just lazy.

You are too old for it.

It's not something I really do anymore, but if someone is celebrating a birthday and wants to go 'out out' then I'm happy to do so.

fucking 'out out'. :moop:

Maybe when I'm in my late 30s.

Your mainstream club was always shite and full of tossers, wherever I've lived there's been maybe one or two places that were tolerable.

You will be then the same as you are now. The constant smugface has given you lines that make you look mid 30's anyway.

Nope. It's awesome.

Ah I understand now. That thing is called smiling not smugness.

Clubbing for the sake of clubbing (student nights, basically) is shit, but a lot of the music I like is based around club nights so I don't think I'll ever get past that. As long as the venue isn't a tiny shithole with mini Hillsborough's to get to the smoking area then its great.

I fucking hate going out. Why spend like 200 quid when I can invite mates over? Better music and FIFA etc.
Well, yeah, if you're spending £200 then you're not having a good time. You're getting more and more pissed hoping it'll make you feel like you want to be there. If you don't have an appreciation for the music then you're just in a dark room unable to comfortably talk to anyone. So why go in if you don't like the music? People seem to miss the point of clubs and then call them shit. I can have a great night for £15 if the ticket price is a fiver.

How do you even drink near £200, even at the rate he seems to go through it?

The Merse
29-01-2017, 02:01 PM
Nope.

Got back into after having been over it when I became single again. Big nights in massive clubs I'm more picky about - big night at Motion or Lakota, the former being a retired skate park in an industrial setting or the former a trippy rave paradise in the uber-hippy Stokes Croft, I'm up for every couple of months potentially, but trips to massive 'mainstream' places like the club-by-numbers Prizm venues all of the country, no. Never.

Late night bars, always - and frequently.

I suspect my late 20's will see me in pubs more than clubs.

Waffdon

I prefer pubs but am not exactly against clubs. Haven't been for probably just over a month, but that's mainly due to the amount of away games recently where the drink is flowing by 9am.

Magic

Also the term 'night out' really gets on my jugs.

Speaking of nights out, me and my mate went for a walk along the seafront on the way to get some food and bumped into fucking Mini Me from Austin Powers. Think he was hosting a club night at the shittest club in the city, but we got a picture anyway. He was on a tiny little mobility scooter complaining about how cold it was. Bet he'll be dead soon if he's freezing his bollocks off with no money.

I've really never been a massive fan of going to clubs. I did go to clubs in my tens and early twenties, but its not my scene at all. I do enjoy gigs in club venues though, but that's different. Pubs, bars and really any place where you can sit and chat to your mates is what I want.

I don't like any social occasion where I can't have a conversation, never have done, and never will do. Now approaching 8 years since my last visit to the cinema.

Offshore Toon
29-01-2017, 06:54 PM
I think its been about 4/5 years since I went to the cinema. Its so shit.

Giggles

I was including the 20 quid I would have to pay for a taxi.

Same question, but with £180 substituted in for £200.

Giggles

I will sometimes pick up a big mac on my way home as well.

£178.50.

People who go to clubs for the music. :harold:

Offshore Toon
29-01-2017, 07:43 PM
You're right, that's exactly what I do. But there's not many clubs in Leeds that play the music I like. But I do still enjoy gigs and don't spend a fortune so I reckon that's my version of "clubbing".
Yeah, its all fairly similar. You can get DJ sets in gig formats, and live performances in club formats.

What else would you go for?

Birds and drugs, m8.

Giggles
29-01-2017, 07:49 PM
What else would you go for?

Surely it's to get off your head and try pull something. The music is only a soundtrack for the former but nobody would actually listen to that muck at home.

I don't know why people are assuming all clubs are identical.

Because they've only been to the shit ones.
