    I was just wondering where everyones favourite place to go clubbing is?
    I mean CP's always gets the crowds and I love going apart from the fact that it can be a bit of a grope fest!
    CUBA has good days and bad days and its pot luck which one you get,at least in my opinion.
    CLUB Q-well you have to hand it to them,it has a savage dancefloor....if nothing else
    GPO-What can you say about this place,you either love it or hate it!I mean its ok but could do with a bit of a revamp I think,anyone agree???

    Eh! It's a toss-up! I'm not even gonna pretend that I like clubs anymore. but if I was going, GPO or Cuba are the most neutral. CPs is.... (rest of post omitted for legal reasons)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    GPO is actually my favourite, great place. I used to like Cuba an awful lot but now, not so sure...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 464 ✭✭redmosquito


    Was in Karma for the first time there last thursday night, enjoyed it!
    Dont like the GPO but occasionally head there on mondays (free in!)
    CP's is good enough and I hate Cuba, although I havent been there in a long time, I used to love Boo Radleys on a wednesday night!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,484 ✭✭✭JIZZLORD


    Gpo on wednesday = eighties night!
    how couldn't you love it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Halo or Karma really

    Cps every time.. I used to work there and Its seems to have a higer score rate for me than any other club ^_^


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,178 ✭✭✭kevmy


    Depends on so many things. How drunk you are, who your there with, what music there playing etc.
    That said haven't been to Club Q in ages never really got into the vibe + to far away.
    Boo's (or whatever there calling it these days) can be good but has dance floor the size of postage stamp
    Cuba can be pot luck in the fact that there can be absolutely noone there one night and jammed the next but it does have 2 floor playing 2 diff styles which is good
    GPO needs a revamp but i've had some of my best nights there (also wed 80's night + free tequila)
    Karma one of the more consistent but never seems to play my kinda music but not bad
    CP's everybody knows the score if ya don't like don't go there but some nights you just might want that.
    Kaytoo (or whatever it is) is the only place i don't go to on principle. As one of my mates once described the clientele "drunk, underage, pregnant, knackers"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,478 ✭✭✭padi89


    Dont bother much really anymore , im happy with a late bar.If i did go out to a club id have to go with Halo, crowds are too young everywhere else, maybe the Warwick aswell.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 154 ✭✭the-furbo


    have to admit tho if it wasnt for 80's night i really dunno how id survive!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,751 ✭✭✭MyPeopleDrankTheSoup


    used to hate cp's coz it was full of boggers and ****, but it's usually a good laugh. i tink clubs all depend on what u make of em and who you're with.

    but sometimes you just want a late bar, and the only late bar all week is bar 903. had some good laffs there, but so sick of it. those muppets playing guitar play the same songs every night, and turn it up loud enough to stop all conversation. there needs to be a second all week late bar close to town (roisins is a good bit away). i nominate taafes!

    Same as... although I've never been to Halo. I love the Warwick. Such a varied crowd. You've got the main area downstairs, butlers bar upstairs and the band area. It sucks on a Friday night though. Plus it takes the hassle out of a Saturday night by staying away from town.... Plus I live in salthill so its only a short stroll home afterwards!

    i ended up there once.... not a good night, but we couldnt get in anywhere else as it was rag week (of course). anyway, the jumper of my friends friend was pissed on

    I hate CPs with a passion. It was the worst place possible just after the smoking ban. Man that place smoked. Like RHG, I probably shouldn't go on bout why I hate it so much for legal reasons :p

    I love GPO on Wednesday i.e. 80s night, and Cuba is fun sometimes. I was in Kennedys last night and I have to say that i enjoyed myself so much so methinks I might just go back there.

    Yes!

    YES!!!

    It is a toilet place.. where toilets are... No offence DRakE, but jeeeeeesus! that places sucks!

    Some of the things i saw there were beyond wrong! My friend who was a bouncer there had to leave after some of the stuff he saw going on!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,484 ✭✭✭JIZZLORD


    everyone seems to hate cps, myself included, but it's always full

    I used to love cuba but I think its a bit hit and miss. Cps is only good if you dont remember being there. Dont like the gpo and despise the radisson. Started going to late bars alot more lately

    80's are you serious? Is he serios? The 80's was undoubtedly the ****tiest years for music, bad clothes and hair styles.

    Cuba was class last night.
    But CP's has classy women!:confused:
    Halo:Older women,harder to pull,have to lie about age and job(well if you are my age)but you are a legend among your friends if you pull.
    GPO:Best nightclub for the craic with friends.For example, the baywatch song came on Tuesday night, I took off my shirt and start slow running across the dance floor(bouncer just laughed at me)Monday nights is the best student night around.
    Boo Radleys:Same as GPO but GPO does it 100 times better.
    Cuba:Hit and miss,don't really like it,I find it very cliquey.
    Club Q:If you want to pull women(disregarding age dress sense and looks), go here.
    Ihave to say my favourite nightclubs are CP's and GPO!

    Thats the whole reason..........???????? Dont you get it???????

    No point in being all serious about the music when your out for a night out.Most of the nightclubs and bars around play Pop music anyways so its all the same.Some of the best nights out ive ever had were Sh1tenights in the GPO (when everyone bothered to dress up), Bananarama , MC Hammer and the likes ,extremley cheesy but funny as hell.

    The 80's produced me, so it certainly did something right.

    Isn't Boo Radleys now Saints and Sinners or something ..?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    I can't say it about the fashion but the 80's music effing rocks, or plops (electronically like)


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,110 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    Yeh it's called saints and sinners, it's no pi though...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 654 ✭✭✭mr_disc


    Go to GPO the odd week -end, was it just me or did anyone have their drink robbed in there ( or try to have it robbed ) .... happens every single time i go in there............... :(

    Cp's: Full of young annoying girls who love nothing but themselves and dancing to really bad music.
    Saints and Scholars: Pretty much the same as Cp's except the crowd is younger, its getting better tho. I went there recently and it wasnt so bad.
    Karma: Can be good, Thursdays night r ok.
    Cuba: Good some nights, i like the music in the live but there r just too many hip hop loving fiends in the club these days.
    GPO: Wednesdays r ok, i hate 80's music tho, had some good nights in there but i tend to go there on the nights its full of knackers.
    Club pi: Who knows?

    Personally id prefer a good bar to any night club, i love the blue note, massimos, the front door, Bar903.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 154 ✭✭galwaygirleen


    ohhhh how could i not reply but ah lads are ye all forgetting the many a happy night ye had with yer mates in the quays!!

    Always good fun. Not too sure ye lot would fair out on the aul scoring cos its a mixed bag really isnt young wans and aul wans alike either way its very relaxed and always gauranteed a good night specially when the weightless astronaunts are playing on a sunday night!!

    Well thats my lil plug for them lot pmsl, i want free in next week boys!! only joking. Moving along hope its not all bla bla bla so short and sweet from now on i promise!!!:p

    CP- The biggest cattle Mart in the west of ireland!!

    GPO- Havent been in years was always full of knackers! but must say as iam a child of the 80's the 80's night sounds so appealing for the craic!

    Karma- Bring back the ALLEY was so good back in the day!!

    CUBA- clickty clique!!

    PI- that place on Shop St anyone ever there??

    RAD - Cant really comment cos i cant be arsed to walk up the town to get to the place and id probably be sober by then!

    HALO- isnt bad but the bouncers are a bit snotty and it could do with better music!!

    LATE NIGHT BARS ARE THE WAY TO GO ME THINKS OF COURSE ONLY IF THERES A FAB BAND ON!!! :)

    I used to like the Radisson last year until Rag week came and the place went downhill again. I hear it's packed again this year. I wouldn't know, i've been in CP's all year. The missus likes the place and who am I to argue. If I was going out it would either be Boo's, Cp's or Club Q. Sorry the rest just aren't my cup of tea. Nearly get killed everytime I go to GPO, Cuba puts me to sleep and PI....isn't it a gay club?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,046 ✭✭✭Fracture


    i havent been to the radisson in 2 yrs, it was good enough back then but it took a nose dive into the rocks when they started lettin a bad crowd in, didnt go back after that, dunno how its doin these days tbh.

    Cp's 4 t3h WIn :P
