Good to meet up again on
Friday, as mentioned earlier, Hoxton didn't dissapoint. Cool to meet Great Looking Guy, funny enough we used his nickname as part of opening some sets and it brought up some lol's, but man you've got some energy level, I couldn't reach that on Sat even with a few red bulls
A few random things that come to my mind: some girls recognizing Rebus as he approached them in same place a week ago, but he forgot about it
; joining GLGuy in his conversation with this swedish chubby girl, then Snake Eyes being called 'desperate' by her mates; GLGuy being asked by a random guy if he read the Game, then introducing us to him as
pua's, but he left pretty quick after we all avoided giving him the tips he wanted to hear;
dance floor with no cloakroom so we put my coat in the middle and danced around it, some girls found it funny and even put their handbags next to it and joined us; DJ's were some really hot girls, we danced on the podium next to them along with some other people, good to be in the centre of attention for a bit, although found a bit harder to really click with any of the sets open, still had fun and didn't really care. It was weird to see the venue closing so early, and all these people gathering outside, took the nightbus with GLGuy, tried a chat with these thai/malaysian girls on the sits in front of us, but didn't really fancy them.
Also had this flu bugging me, which brings me to
Sat. Met
Snake Eyes, Craigus and GLGuy in Clapham, after me starting off pretty early, so by the time we met I was pretty pissed, but had some red bulls and got back on track a bit. From this now on, the night is a bit blury, but here are the highlights: couldn't get into vodka rev, as they decided we needed girls, turned to the set that Snake Eyes was talking to, but they were having none of it, so went to bison, opened some sets there, then off to cheesy inferno's. Wasn't really working for us, as it seemed all the chody dancers were getting the attention, then Snake Eyes comes up the idea of doing chody dancing, immediately he gets spanked by 2 girls, wow this is the way forward
still we decide to get our stamps and move to some pubs around. By this time I was already starting to lose my voice, then GLGuy comes up with an idea to hyper us up, say 'bounce' and point to a set and one of us has to open it. It seems to turn our night around: GLGguy starts well with this 3 polish set, then Snake Eyes bounces in front of this girl in a bus stop and open with 'hey I am bouncing'
, still it works. My turn in oneils, open this 2 brazilian set, although only one seems interested, there was a live band, so I almost have to shout to make her hear me and almost lost my voice. Luckily after 5 min the band leaves and Craigus joins me keeping the other girl busy. It's going really well, we're having a laugh about some random stuff, I manage to tell her in half spanish-half portuguese that she is cute. At this point as my wings pointed later, should have #closed, but got so much into the conversation that didn't. Her friend grabs her and they to search for some of their friends. On our way out we pass near them, but it was too late as she already found her friends at the exit: 2 big lads
Tried and get back to inferno's, but bouncer is having a go at us, as we don't have the right stamps, got a bit pissed off and left, luckily Snake and GLGuy said let's try again and we went right in. By this time I lost my voice and the loud music didn't help. Decided not let this ruin the night and opened with asking girls to read my lips. Not going that well as they all look confused at first, still a few actually find it funny and this cute blonde knew sign language and tries to teach me, but get her to dance instead, get cockblocked by her mates and move on. Again the club gets closed and we end up outside in a mass of people and see this fights in the street, laugh about the classic 'fight outside opener' and go to this rooster chicken & chip shop, where we see this 4 set girls in which each of us recognize one of them as getting rejected earlier, but couldn't care less and laugh about it.
Again got the nightbus, everybody is singing and it seems to piss of the driver who start breaking heavily. We use the 'bounce' and GLGuy opens this 2 german set, on the seats next to us, the blonde one seems cute, but after another heavy breaking someone throws his takeway into their hair and they leave. After GLGguy gets off at his stop, I start chatting this half-drunk girl, all is going well, we seem to be getting of at the same stop, but then as stand up, she says 'oh I need to wake my husdband' who turns out to be the passed out drunk guys next to me. This is getting weird so I leave them to it
We should definitely use the 'bounce' again and also lesson learned on dance floor: open sets earlier in other venues then escalate on dance floor.
