Not Our Clubs

From the Internet, but they don't apply to the clubs on this island.

They can be overcrowded. -- They can be way too loud, often to the point that you can barely talk to anyone. -- They can be cheesy. -- They can be pretentious. -- They can be overpriced (cover charge/drinks/VIP section, etc.). -- The staff can be rude and arrogant

"Live without pretending, Love without depending,

Listen without defending, Speak without offending."

They can be stiflingly hot. -- They can be smelly and dirty. -- They may have annoying dress codes. -- They can be sketchy and dangerous. -- The music can be awful. -- The atmosphere can be very superficial. -- You may have to wait forever to get a drink. -- The lights can be overly intense, annoying, and blinding.

They can be full of drunk idiots. -- People may be stuck up, rude, obnoxious, or catty towards you. If you're a guy, some jerk may try to pick a fight with you. -- You may not directly get into a confrontation, but be near one when it happens and have your night ruined by the bad vibes it causes. If you're a woman you may get groped, harassed, and hit on by idiots.

If you go out a lot, and see the same people week after week, they can sometimes be a very vapid, unhealthy group of "friends". -- You may have to wait in line for a long time (even worse if it was all a trick, and the place is dead once you get inside).

But not Dancing on Oahu, that's for sure.
