Often you walk into a Nightclub and you can really tell the
difference between a seasoned clubber and a rookie clubber. Here is a list of
all the things a rookie clubber gets wrong.
1.
Fashion :
·
Well we get it its winter and its cold, but that
does not mean you wear socks with your stilettos! If you are feeling that cold
wear boots and leave the dirty socks at home. A seasoned clubber would never
make such a rookie mistake.
·
We all love fishnets and lace stockings. Worst
is when you spot someone with nurse looking stockings!
·
Men generally get it right. Some don’t by
wearing a shiny satin or a glittery shirt. Remember those never came into
fashion to be out of fashion.
2.
Dance Floor:
·
On the dance floor you are not supposed to
flaunt every move you know. A rookie clubber generally feels that if their
favourite song is playing they must create a lot of space for themselves on the
dance floor. For all the rookie clubbers, this might seem the case in Bollywood
films, but trust me, not the case otherwise. Every seasoned clubber will
respect the space of fellow clubber and will not fight for space.
3.
Bar
·
A rookie clubber will always try and make their
friends drunk. Often will order in large quantities and force drinks down their
friend’s throat. It is horrible to see and surly makes a mess at the bar. One
person will passes out and they are carried home. A seasoned clubber knows the
meaning of enjoying one’s drink; if you have paid a bomb for your drink; make
sure you enjoy it. Seasoned clubber will be spotted with their drink sipping it
leisurely.
·
The rookie will fight hard to get to the bar.
Guys, it’s a bar and you are not suppose to feel like you are in a canteen. Be
cordial and nice to people around.
·
A seasoned clubber will just say “screwdriver”,
“Long Island Ice Tea” or “JD on the rocks”. A rookie will generally try and
explain what sort of a cocktail they would like to have. Rookie will make
statements like ‘the big drink, which looks like ice tea ...” Well you get the
point.
4.
Gate
A seasoned clubber will generally know the
manager by their first name; apart from that they would be well versed with
club rules. They will enter with ease and often not charged for their entry. If
rookie clubber is stopped at the gate, questions like “why are slippers not
allowed” and “why are stags not allowed” are bound to creep up. Worst mistake is
to ask the management, ‘why has someone been allowed to enter free’.
Dear
rookie, a night club is not a cinema hall where you buy a ticket to enter. Advice
to all the rookie clubbers, know the rules before you go to a club and don’t
ask dumb questions at the gate!
5.
PDA
A seasoned clubber will just steal a kiss
from their date. They would hold hands and he would gently hold her by the hip
and escort her around the club. On the other hand, the rookie will take the PDA
to a whole new level. Unless you two look like Brangelina, we do not want to
see wrestling of your tongues!
6.
Music
Generally night clubs have a designated day
for a particular type of music. A seasoned clubber will be aware which night
what type of music plays. A rookie feels music is not planned. They would
pester the DJ for a Bollywood song on a House Night. Seriously, the DJ has a
job to follow and they won’t play your song unless it fits into their planned line up. Do not bug the DJ pointlessly!
7.
Lingo
If there is anyone who still calls a night
club a ‘disco’, make sure you run. Disco is an archaic word! Disco is totally
about the 70’s and leave the word there.
8.
Click
A rookie will pop out their digi-cam at every
given moment. They would upload an album with 50 pictures after one night of
clubbing and the album name will usually have “crazy” or “random” .A seasoned
clubber will take a maximum of two pictures if at all. They will pose for the
photographers. Better still; a seasoned clubber will see their picture in the
next day’s page 3!
