Bogarts closed and the Fantasy Bar opened up. Same owners as Angels. But I've been told that it's now closed.

Boo Radleys is an odd narrow place. The crowd is a bit strange. I wouldn't be jumping to get in here but if all else fails why not.

The infamous Cps. It is said that if you can't score in here you are either gay or not drunk enough. Full of very straight drunk people gagging for it. It is definitely the Creme de la Creme of Nightclubs. watch out for redneck saturday.

Paddy O'Farrell bounces here. It seems to always be free in meaning any body who doesn't want to pay in to a club will go there, Flyers handed out on Shop street. Watch out for the many steps leading upstairs it's a killer. I managed to pay 10 Euros in on a Saturday.

Cuba nightclub is good for gigs on the top floor. The comedy club is there also on a Sunday. The 1st floor on a reegular night is not great but then again it's usual club music.

My fav at the moment for Friday night. the club is called shake and there's good music and a good crowd. Easy access to the bar is also a very good point. Saturday is Salsa night.

GPO main dancefloor is for kids but sometimes they get guest DJs. Also 110st is there every fortnight which plays good music and gets in a sane crowd. Then there's the Drum Bar part which is a great place to hang out any day of the week.

For Old odd people. Live bands sometimes. reminds me of the Quays Bar upstairs and same weird crowd. They do have a good house club on a Friday called SHEEVA i think. worth a look but be careful you may get accosted.

The Alley. I spent far too much time in here whilst in college and developed a hatred for the place.

Relatively new club. Massive venue. Bar upstairs OK to hang out in. Disco ok. Very young crowd on Sat. Takes a while to get going on a Friday. Be advised there's a long wait at the bar. Worse than the warwick used to be.

Someone recently gassed the place. Made the news. This is what some of the people who go there find amusing. Rough crowd.

The Warwick. Galways own nightclub. Guaranteed to meet someone you know. Same music for 15 years and always a queue at the bar. Crowds left when the radisson opened up but they are returning.

A late bar. I go there when I don't want to spend a fortune getting into a club. There's a strange crowd but you'll get over it.

Was there over Christmas 2 years ago. But I've heard it's a grand place for a late drink. Free in I think.

A wine Bar. Full of poor foreign students bumming fags. Foul house wine.

Awful place. I was there with Stevo and Ciaran. Everyone was buzzing. Full of crustys and wanabe crustys.
