    Have been in a good few times its really nice, great cocktails.. but has anyone noticed that the dj who used to be in the fence is there on sundays and has played the exact same music nearly every week? eh there is only so much of the same chanting from the killers, bob sinclair we can take ! There was a great Dj there on other nights, when i was in a few weeks ago who could mix the tracks and the music was brill.. we went along last nite cos the Fence was closed and the dj could't mix for s**t..the music was crap !!!
    when's the fence opening again anyone know..?

    music is bad: usually British Pop, 80’s or 90’s music or R& B

    Blimey. Remind me to go to nightclubs in future. I had no idea the music was this good. I have always thought that the music in nightclubs was monotonous dance shite and hip hop

    I'm a big fan of techno/electronic music. Not many bars play that type of music.

    The music is good, the company is good, the drugs are good, the sex is good, the dancing is amazing.

    Not all night clubs suck!

    Noone seems to have mentioned the much greater alternative. House party/Sessions. Only people you like and only music you like(well there's always someone who tries to play crap.)
    Not the best if you're single and looking to meet someone, but then again the kind of people you meet in a nightclub are generally not girlfriend material.

    I hate our licensing laws that make clubs and pubs the same. Clubs should be allowed to stay open till 6 like most other developed countries and instead of depriving clubbers their night on the grounds of the bad behaviour of the minority why not actually punish drunk/drugged up yobs with serious on the spot fines?

    Let the pubs stay as pubs and the clubs stay as clubs

    I really have to disagree with you! I tried going there the weekend before last, they played "music", which to me sounded like trance music. They had maybe 5 different drinsk at the bar. No light beer either. The people were nice, if a bit cliquey.

    Germany, Australia, England off the top of my head and loads more. I often left The End in london at 7 or after, same in QBH in Melbourne.

    bars close at like 11pm in the west end during the week, f**k that :)

    you also picked out random establishments, most nightclubs in england close at 3-4am, blackpools clubs (the biggest in the country) close at 4 on a saturday night

    I prefer bars 'cause I like to be able to sit down and have a chat, chill out and not have to scream at who I'm trying to talk to! That said, there are times I love a nightclub for a good ole boogie! Oh, I can't pick, it depends on my mood!

    Late bars. Too much hassle for night clubs. Never get turned away but not arsed paying in either especially if the queue at the bar's gonna be too long for drinks promo's to be worthwhile. €10 for a pitcher of Fosters in Quinn's any day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,373 ✭✭✭Executive Steve


    As long as its dark and there's bassbins I'm there and I don't care if it's a late bar or a club...

    It would be you, wouldn't it ;)

    Aye, late bars all the time. Can sit and have a chat with people. Only good thing about nightclubs is cheap drink.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Ok I didn't mean that all people in night clubs aren't girlfriend material, but more that people don't tend to go to nightclubs with the intention of finding someone to have a boyfriend/Girlfriend relationship with.

    Not to say that if you met the right person it wouldn't happen, but just not the most likely place for it to happen.
