Clubbing Advice?

Soo it's my first time going clubbing tomorrow (yaaaaaaaay) and i was wondering if anyone had any advice? literally on anything, how to dance, most cost effective booze, how to chat to people... or anything else you can think of :biggrin:
Cheers guys! xoxo

Get smashed before hand or it will be rubbish. Prepare for shockingly bad music. If you're too sober, you'll wish you'd have gone the pub :rolleyes:

Drink if you want but know your limits, don't be pressured into more than you know you can handle. If you're a girl and wearing heels, always always always bring a change of flats. Regarding dancing don't jump around but have good rhythm and be careful not to knock into others on the dance floor (clubs are generally quite crowded, plus drunk people are quite easy to piss off :tongue:). It's hard to chat to people in clubs generally you need to have your mouth next to their ear lol (this goes if you're trying to pull as well!). Oh and don't dance right next to the speakers, my friend did once when very drunk, damaged her hearing :frown:

Like the previous poster said, pre-drink otherwise it won't be as good.

In terms of dancing, just make sure you try move in time with the music otherwise you'll just look stupid.. But then if you're drunk you won't care.

Clubs aren't known for their 'cost effective' drinks unless it's a student bar or abroad somewhere. If you want what will get you drunk quickest then perhaps go for shots vodka/tequila or maybe get a bottle of cheap ass champagne.. That works for me.

Unless you're in the smoking area, it will be too loud to chat to people so don't bother haha.

If you're half decent looking, no doubt numerous guys will try pulling you some way or another. Either embrace that and go for it or tell them to **** off.

Stick with your mates. Don't want to be wandering home drunk on your own or anything.

What if your expensive phone has a micro sim, it's gonna be hard to transfer it to a nokia 3310 :sad:.

Still though, @OP, you will have fun, but IMO, pubs are better if you wanna chat to others.

IF you wanna get wrecked, go clubbing!
Don't drink a drink unless you've been watching it since it was poured.
you can't chat with people, it'll be so loud you won't even be able to hear yourself think. That's why i hate clubs, along with annoying drunk men, dancing and sweatiness *bah humbug* make sure you're ****ed and you'll probably enjoy it

I could go out with 15 quid and have a cracker night.

£4 - 1/4 glass vodka (pin it before you go in)
£5 - entry
Change: Lift home

Well I went to Yates in Leicester Square with my cousins and I did have to travel by tube of course, so that was like 1.50, then the entry was free :cool: (where did you head to brah?). We didn't pre-drink sadly, but got wrecked with the amount of Sambucca we had.
You should not be partying in the first place -_-
Look great!
Be careful!
Have fun!
