Nightclubs in Los Angeles in general
by pink_lady Well I have been living in LA for about three months now and to tell the truth it has been a total culture shock. I moved over here from Manchester expecting the bright lights and glamour. Well there is that here but that isn’t what this opinion is about. This is about clubbing. To tell you the truth I haven’t really had the ... chance to go out much because of the strictly enforced 21 and over rules for drinking over here. As I am only 20 I am having a pretty hard time managing to get out but with the aid of a convincing fake ID anything is possible. DANCE CLUBS: The palace nightclub located just off vine and Hollywood is a pretty cool place. An old theatre that has been converted into a club it offers space and a variety of different rooms. Sadly the music played on most nights is not to the taste of most Europeans, kind of weird techno stuff that was popular in the early nineties. There is also Key Club that offers a Gods Kitchen night and other dance events with an English flavour. As I am not really into the dance music scene I cant really tell you anymore but there is a lot to choose from! NEW AND LIVE MUSIC VENUES: The Roxy, The Whiskey and the Viper Room are all famous clubs located on the Strip. Here you will find friendly atmospheres and surroundings that will be familiar to frequenters of student dives. Here you will find a variety of new bands and those that have already been signed, playing to a strange mix of people ranging from punkas to business men. Often the age limits is 21 and over and some nights are strictly industry only... however if you have your blaggers hat on anything is possible. GAY CLUBS: The gay scene in LA is located in West Hollywood mainly along Santa Monica Blvd. One of the best nights of the year is Halloween when there is a big parade and everyone walks in the streets wearing outrageous costumes and generally having a good time. Most clubs welcome straights and t he atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. Just off the Blvd is a pub/bar called the Abbey that offers a selection of food and cocktails with a monastic feel to it. Over the road on a Wednesday night there is Club 80s which offers a flash back to the past to relive the decade of legwarmers and puffball skirts. I have to say though, the 80s a European will remember is very different to the 80s Americans remember!! Really the best piece of advice I can give is to pick up a copy of LA Weekly. This paper is free and you can find it almost anywhere. Use it as your bible and it will guide you through your week telling you where to go and what to see...........at the end of the day going out in LA can be pretty hard work with the price and distinct lack of taxis and the spread out feeling of the place, but persevere and it will all be worth it in the end!! Have fun!! Read the complete review |

Nightclubs in Miami in general
by ReaSunz1 Ok due to the feedback from my fellow surfers. I suck at writing.....lol. we'll i will try again. Ok here we go. South Beach is a beautiful stip along the beach, during the day its a busy art-deco district, surrouned by the first hotels that were put up in Miami. But at night it turn's into lights and sounds. Club's here & ... Club's there. You have your pick of club's to pick from. From all ages - to the more mature crowd. But it is a beautiful place both during the day and during the night. Also, from going to this place you are bound to meet VERY interesting people. It is like no other place i have seen before. Also we have Coconut Grove. It is a much smaller place, but just as exciting. You have a 2-story building that is full of excitement. This place is for the older-crowd. It has maybe 2 clubs, mostly sport bars and shops. But it is a really nice place to go out on one of those nights on the town type deals. And last but not least you have Ft. Lauderdale. Not As exciting as the Grove, and not as Beautiful as South Beach, but it works for the youth of America. It is pretty nice their and they are right next to the beach, but it just does not give you the feel of the 2 other places that were described before. But for the teenagers that are not allowed in the "Good" Clubs. They sure dont have anything else. Pretty much my opinion is simple. Since I Like to go to clubs, that is where I go and that is what I know. I would have to say that they are the best, especially South Beach, it is definately one of a kind. You will never find another place like it (but as I said that is my own personal opinion). It is more like one of those things that you have to see to believe. Read the complete review |

Nightclubs in Miami in general
by Miami is a hot bed of clubs and is one of the coolest places on Earth to rave and play these days. Its large rampant homosexual population demands dance and tecno music like any other out there. Although the beats are heavily Latin influenced, European DJs do regularly venture out here to spin their thing. Lots of the top Brit ... masters of ceremony part own or are part of the furniture down here during the party month between October and the ravenous College Spring break. The Groovejet club on 23rd Street would regularly have our top guys there and also some of the Dutch stars. All the styles of club music are whacked out most nights in Miami, especially in the city of Miami Beach where Washington Avenue teams with punters and the beautiful people groveling to get in the long line of pulsing clubs. Some are not so cool as others and those tend to be the ones full of locals and uncool tourist which I proudly count my self as when it comes to queuing for clubs.I hate dance and tecno music,let alone UK garage and whatever other beat of the factory is blasting out. Those vibes and vibrations suck the followers in have the opposite effect on me as im repelled onto the shinny pavement by the same beats. But unfortunately these clubs are full of stunning girls and I will do anything for my healthy ego. The velvet tape super clubs are the pickiest and you have to be seriously sexy and in to get past the hallowed ropes. The bouncers look like they play catch with boulders and don’t take $5 dollar bribes from Northampton wannabe to join the elite beyond the black mist dry ice sucking in the posers. Liquid and the Dome are the places to be on Tuesday and Wednesday respectively and are often frequently by Miami’s sizeable movie star population. Music stars to hang around taking in the warm all year around vibe and you can spot them with ease if you’re a series party head until dawn and beyond. I saw Wayne Gretsky (hockey player) and Iggy Pop both inside the hour one night. Liquid on and Tuesdays and Fridays attract the sexiest people in the world as the whole world comes to Miami to work. If your backpacking then why not stay in The lay Hotel international hostel on the other side of the road. You can see Jack Nicholson from your window and are often in the heart of the latest movie, video or commercial to be filmed in and around the beach, for the princely sum of $12 dollars a night. This hostel and perhaps Miami beach is the best kept secret amongst independent travelers to keep away the tattooed hoi palloi that clutter up Spanish beaches and Europe’s super clubs. Liquid are picky on most nights and girls on their own get in first, followed by couples and then single guys.Not exactly the most profitable regime as we all know who buys the drinks in over priced clubs and bars don’t we guys. American girls can’t drink until 21 so its doubly strange that American club owners haven’t figured this out as they press for beauty over dollars. Most clubs have VIP areas where champagne nestles in silver buckets adorned by stunning models and b-list celebs. Occasionally you will see a lightning storm of flash bulbs around an A-list drowning in starlets and obsequious attendance. I managed to see B-list Eric Roberts and Boris Becker getting the PR treatment. I was over their two years back and I expect the latest superclubs and crowd have moved on. But liquid although grubby from the outside, seemed the place to be. Further down the strip there are all sorts off clubs for all sorts of people. The local Latino’s love their own beats and tend to ignore the more decadent European hard house and trance. My beautiful Dutch girlfriend had a penchant for the club scene and would drag me into these places to endure two hours of the banging screaming mildly melodic din. The blacks had their own R and B pla ces where single teen white parents from council estates in the Uk would cream themselves if they could ever afford to come out here and get hold of their chunky gold chains. The Dome is just across the street and is part owned by Maddona.Its hardcore tecno/house and it’s a cross dressers dream along with whistle blowing Homo’s. The ones that wear those tight T-shirts and Popeye haircuts. Pearl is the poser model bars haven and the beautiful people assemble here armed with ecstasy and bottled water for the long night ahead in club land. Lenny Kravitz Crowbar usually Hoover’s up the bulk of them whilst others prefer the more ambient Level. These clubs were only just taking off when I was last over there so I cat tell you what they are like inside or how good. Not as if I was going to get in though. Club Deep is the one everyone can get in with free guest passes if they are fed up with the posy queues. Lush is a velvet tape affair, one of the trendier places on certain nights with its arcing spotlights out side crossing the sky to tell the world. Salvation and Bash again are a mix of Latino beats and tourist fodder that pull in the well dressed strays that don’t quite make the grade or cant afford the $30 dollar covers. You can openly score a line of best cocaine for $10 dollars if your that way inclined in most of the toilets. Its quite a sight to see people snorting it through ten dollar bills just like those Al Pacino movies. He actually frequents the clubs a lot here where celluloid often blurs reality here. Miami and especially South Beach is essentially a Mecca for gays and their electronic music. If your life revolves around limp bizkit and skateboards then you want the West Coast.The only rock night I could find being a fan was Fridays at the tacky Hard Rock cafe. A gaggle of surfers and workers who love the music marooned in club heaven clutching close together for support and cheesy sof t rock lyrics. Lenny Kravitz does do a rock night at the beach for the Miami University students now and then but it tends to be his kind of Indy groove over hardcore mosh out. Working in this city an reliant on static FM rock stations a night like that was in series demand. Its not Ibiza and hopefully never will be a see of England polyester tops and Bloated Northerners.You don’t see piles of puke outside of the UK and I would hate to see them in the city that’s my second home.The house music scene is rampant down there and I expect this to be the next big dance music scene outside of Europe. Agia Nappia people probably wont get of on this more sophisticated club scene and should stick with Ibiza and chips. But for the more cool chilled out high earning trendies and backpackers, you will have a ball here in this largely untouched by the British crass working class clubber. Its not ready and nor are Americans for Darren and Dale down on the knuckle of Florida and its stunning all year around climate. Its also a shock to the system of the bigot’s amongst as when you see a thousand Big Brother Joshes shirtless and spaced in fenced of beach parties. I still love the buzz of the place and its unique coolness away from the rest of the World.If you think that most of the worlds most nearly successful beautiful Latin and European women gather here in the winter months, its not a place to ignore guys.
