Nearly....but not quite
I was out in Po Na Na's (one of a chain of clubs, supposed to have some Arabic-opium-den schtick but instead looks very like the Dirkadirkastan bar in Team America) with some mates on the wednesday rock night. Which is not actually very good, mostly 'hardcore' emo crap playing but £1 beers, so not all bad. We were in the 'chill-out' bit (uncomfortable settees, stupid 'ethnic' lamps, Postal Service playing), and my mate (a tiny girlie) went up to the dj to request some music, as you do. As I mentioned before this club is rather emo-heavy and unlikely to play her rather jolly choice, but nontheless she tried anyway. the conversation went something like this:
My mate: "Hi, do you have anything by The Eels?"
Emo DJ: "yeah, ive got that beautiful day song"
My mate: "ah cool, will you play it for me?"
Emo: "Errr...nah, maybe not..."
Mate: "Ah, you wanker" (said in jolly, jokey manner)
Emo: "What?? I know so much more about music than you do, I've been a DJ for a whole 6 months (wow, mummy must be proud), I'm not an emo, my mates are older than your mates, boo hoo etc..."
My mate thinks this is stupid and just ignores him... however her boyfriend isnt too pleased with his good lady being talked to in such a way, and goes to have a 'friendly chat' (actually not violent) with this emo tosser, then sits down again, satisfied he's made his point...whereupon one of the bouncers comes over and threatens both of them with being thrown out and barred... 'oh noooo, please don't ban us from your shitty expensive club', etc... we left without a fuss in the end.
Heh, the club has now closed down...probably because they stopped doing the £1 WKD blue, and any other drink from there would financially cripple you.... D'oh.
BTW if some of you really acted the way you claim to when drunk/stoned/similar shite excuse for twattery, I wouldnt be surprised you manage to get yourself barred from everywhere... I'm sure it was really fucking funny at the time when you were pissing on the pool table/grabbing random womens tits/punching the bar staff, but it just makes you look like a total asswipe, trust me.
