We arrived at the place at about 11:45. Cover was 15$ for both sexes: Opening nite -> Special event pricing. We proceeded to check our coats which was an additional 3 dollars. Beers were 3.50 before 12pm and 4.25 after which is about what I expected.
KiFe went upstairs for the breaks and I stayed downstairs to catch Mystical's set which was actually really good. Definitely not the usual stuff he spins: Very dark, heavy bass lines (although it seemed to me that the sound system couldn’t really handle the bass) and no anthems except maybe a couple at the end. By 1am downstairs was probably 1/4th full and upstairs was completely empty. Only 3 or 4 people were dancing except me (I was the tall skinny guy wearing a visor and a blue shirt with a spine on the back). I can understand why: The dance floor downstairs is incredibly unsuitable for dancing to jungle. Very rough ceramic surface that is too sticky for the spinning from side to side moves. I had to continuously spill water on the dance floor to lubricate it so that I could dance. At about 3am I went to check out upstairs for a bit and learned from Kife that the dj’s were really good. Apparently though there is no appreciation for local talent and it was even emptier than downstairs. I made a few moves and we decided to leave.
Shouts to kul-kat (was fun chatting wif you!), gunark (back to the jungle!), mcbee and her friends, Jason and Chris (Chris, you are a wikkid dancer!!)
