I only liked that post because there's no Wynn-er option.

So, this Friday is my semi-annual night out on the tear in the city with Mrs. egg_, overnight babysitting taken care of

We'll be wanting to dance - actually dance, not just drink in a pub with music, so there'll need to be a dancefloor and flashing light and other people dancing. Been to the Workman's Club the last few times, so wanna avoid there, and I can't abide house music. Any suggestions?

Make sure and not tell us what music you *do* actually want to dance to.

Check out what's on in the basement of Sweeney's. Saturday night there is ska/reggae night and I dig dancing there for hours. Only dancefloor I do be on any more.

Also check out what's on in the Grand Social.

firehouse skank

Is firehouse skank that thing that's on Sundays in the button factory? or is the mezz?

I'm fairly out of touch with all this.

There's some sort of either dubstep or drum and bass night on in the twisted pepper this Friday. I haven't been there in about 3 years but it used to be really good fun.

it was a reggae thing in the basement of parnell mooney's about 10 years ago...before the smoking ban

Was never at that but was at the reggae night in sweeney's a good while ago with the missus and it was great craic. I'd recommend that. Most of the time when I've been out these days has been to gigs and I've normally gotten the last bus home so I don't really know what night clubs are like

my only experience of nightclubs is a handful of badly ill-conceived and short-lived outings with college people who i didn't really like

Is Ri Ra still going?

I assume upstairs in Doyles is the same setlist from a decade ago? Last Nite followed by Love Cats followed by a Girl Like You followed by something newer.... eh... the Black Keys?

I think upstairs in doyles became doyles basement about 12 years ago.

Broadchurch - if you have ever listened to Mod music

I still see people hanging out around the entrance all the time.

I was definitely upstairs briefly in the past...eh... decade.

Ok I concede here.

What is actually the point of clubbing in Ireland anymore since the clubs only open until 2:30? Just checked and it's been more than 10 years since that law was introduced, wow do I feel old.

!

I would very seldom see the other side of 2.30, unless someone woke me up cos she had nightmares

Make sure and not tell us what music you *do* actually want to dance to.

Anything but house and/or disco

Grand Social has some funk act until 10.30, then a thing called "You and Me". Anyone know what that is?

 

[egg_]

Oh no wait, it's "The Malibu Club". Anyone know what that is?

"we spin anything from - Disco / Funk / Soul / Italo / 90's House"

Judging by there facebook I think this could be full on disco the name itself has some kind of connection to Miami
