Another Friday Night -- Update
|
|
I may have been a little rough on PCL in my last post. Everything I said is true. PCL is exactly what Scottsdale is, fake, full of itself and just a very pretentous club. It does have it's place. The art on the wall has some thought to it. The bar itself is very nicely presented and nicely layed out. The seating on the sides and the large dance floor is very cool. Not my kind of place.

Another Friday Night
|
So yesterday was my buddy Ryan's birthday. (6/6) We decided to hit Scottsdale. Started at the Pink Taco. It was cool, kind of dieing by the time we got there. We didn't really get there that late it was maybe 9:30, but I guess for there it was late. Decent prices and a few people when we were there.
After that we headed over to Drift. Met up with some other friends. Lost a bet I had made the week before with the bar tender. She said she was bad at names, but some how remembered mine, so I drank and evil bastard! Had a snowball fight with her as well. I highly recommend that place. If Carrie is your bartender tip her well! If you give her shit, expect the same in return.
After that Ryan and my buddy Randy wanted to go to PCL. I tried to resist but some guy got us in a head of the line. Not some place I wanted to be. Drinks were OK as far as price. Other than that I can't say to much good about the place. It might be the most pretentious club in the world. It screams if you don't have the cash I don't have time for you. Not impressed at all. That is why people hate Scottsdale.
After PCL we hit Sultry and had some food and water. Rob the owner is the man. Always a great time there. Hung for an hour or so and went home.
All in all a fun night.Labels: Entertainment

What a weekend
|
This was one very long weekend! Started Thursday with Devil's Martini North, (Scottsdale and Shea). They have 2 for 1 drinks, only issue with that is one drink costs $10, so not really a deal. But about 10 PM it picked up, lots of girls and guys. Place was packed. Dancing, drinking and just having a good time. Headed out to Old Town Scottsdale after that, but it was raining like crazy so I just went home.
Friday night went to Cadillac Ranch at Tempe Market Place. It was ok, road a mechanical bull twice. Had a few drinks, prices weren't to bad, a little expensive but not $10 a drink. We left there and headed to Scottsdale. We walked around to see what was going on and decided on Axis. Had a drink and was getting ready to leave when I met this really nice girl. So I huh out and talked with her, much to her friends dismay apparently. So her friends came and grabbed her about 2 AM so I headed off to find my buddy. We left and went to after hours at Sultry.
Sultry is really cool! They have great food for very reasonable prices. Great atmosphere, actually might consider hanging out there and having a few drinks before the clubs. The owner Rob is really cool, ex-Navy and has specials for service men and women. Ended up talking with him for a bit, talked some shit, so now I have to run down there and eat 6 of his most intense wings. I do it and I drink the rest of the night on him. What is a little physical pain... But seriously check him out. Really cool place. He has a stripper pole up, so after hours is a lot of fun with some drunk girls in there. :) He was telling us about some of his other plans and sounds like that place is going to be super cool. It is right across the street from Myst. Has a nice patio. I highly recommend checking it out!
So we got out of there and went home. The next day I spent recovering from a little hangover and some extremely sore legs, that actually carried over for two more days. Monday rolls around and my buddy Randy calls, so I headed over to Dos Gringos in Scottsdale. $2 beer and $2 food, can't beat that. Had a beer there, walked down to The Salty Senorita, nothing really happening there, had a beer then walked to different little bars to see what was happening. Finally hit Saddle Ranch.
Saddle Ranch was doing pretty well. Lots of people. Unfortunately for me they have a bull riding contest every Monday at 10. Apparrently I have a problem telling my buddy and two pretty girls no. So I signed up. Road the bull, didn't win anything, but had a good time. The food was really good, what we had. They have this big and I mean big cotton candy thing. They brought one out for the girls. Have some pictures, will try and get them up soon. It is pretty funny and way to much sugar! Anyway ended the night there. It was a really cool place, I think we are hitting that again this weekend. You should definately check it out if you have a chance. It is on Scottsdale Road just south of Stetson.
That was my weekend. Lots went on, and I remember it all, a good weekend.
Let me know if you have any suggestions of places to go.Labels: Entertainment

Friday Night in Scottsdale
|
So spent the night all over the valley tonight. Started at 16th Street Sports Bar, regular place although I personally try to stay out of there lately. It is a great bar, but too much personal bs for me. Friday nights they do trivia, alway competative, check it out if you are into that.
Then hit Aunt Chiladas, was kind of dead, a little surprised by that, being that it is one of the last good weekends to sit out on their patio. If you have a chance definately hit AC's on a Friday night. It is alway a blast and always a different crowd, changes throughout the night. Goes from older to younger and back or vise versa. But it is a lot of fun. Not cheap, but free food for happy hour.
Got bored there and headed out to Scottsdale. My buddy and I hit Drift first off, knew some people there. I hadn't been there in a few years, used to be one of my favorite places to go. If you go and have a driver get an Evil Bastard. GREAT drink. Hung there for a little bit, then walked around to see what looked happening. Ended up at Myst, seemed to have the most people in it. It was early for Scottsdale. But we stuck it out and it ended up being fun. My ears are ringing from the music. It really isn't my kind of place. I am not a club kind of guy, but I had fun. Met some people, hung out with some old friends and just really had fun. The GoGo dancers were smokin' hot. I actually would do that again.
We split out of there and my buddy wanted to go home, but I talked him into going one more place. We headed over to Giligans. That was a waste of time. It was dead in there. Well not actually dead, but all guys. So we were out of there quick.
Over all Myst was the highlight of the evening. Lot of fun, lots of people and lots of pretty girls. What more could you ask for?

Thursday Nights in Scottsdale
|
So my buddy Ryan and I hit Scottsdale tonight. Hear on the radio that Trader Vick's was going to be the place to go. So we decided to hit it. The bar was very cool, nice area's to kick back with your friends. Good drinks, a little on the pricey side, but nothing crazy for Scottsdale. Food looked good although we did not eat. As for the fun factor on a Thursday night, it was kind of dead, it was their first Thursday night deal, so you have to give them a little time to build it up. I did like the atmosphere though. Very cool. Very chill. Has a huge selection of alcohol.
After hanging there for a bit we went over to Dos Gringos. That place was buzzing on a Thursday night. Very happening. I am sure once it gets hot it will die, but tonight it was a lot of fun. Met a lot of people, one guy was super entertaining. Ronnie has no fear, but dude, you need to get some glasses or something. It was a ton of fun. Had a few beers, prices are definately Scottsdale, but again not too bad. Lots to look at and a good time too be had by all. We hung out there the rest of the evening and then split. I definately suggest checking Dos out. I am sure Tempe is no different.
Overall it was a good night, started kind of slow but ended on a high note. Check it out and let me know what you think. Later!Labels: Entertainment
