I had a dream this morning. I dreamt that I would own a nightclub empire spanning four streets of a small seaside town. Among the delights:

"Very Neato" - Everyone attending must wear a Venetian mask. Features large fish tanks and banquet tables full of fresh fruit.

"Freudian Slip" - A ballroom dance club where a string quarter plays Mozart. Sweet pastries, coffee, tea and wine are served.

"Millennium Bug" - A nightclub in which music from years 1990-2000 are played at a low volume while episodes of TV shows and films from the aforementioned years are played on several old school TVs mounted on the walls.

"George's Marvellous Medicine" - A club in which all the recipes from Roald Dahl's Revolting Recipes book are on the menu and the only drink available at the bar is absinthe.

I ask you is this not proof of the ingenuity of the Autistic brain?

Damn. I think you should make a Victorian and an Edwardian club as well.

Sorry. I hate nightclubs. Too much noise and too flashy lights.

I like the ideas of the 1st (masks for the win) and 4th (because of the absinthe), but not the others so much. "Millennium Bug" sounds like something you've plagiarised from someone's nightmare, you'd never see me in that club!

Err... if you have the money to set up a club like that then better you should keep it in the bank.

I don't fancy your chances at making a profit. :D

The last time I was in a dance club the noise was over whelming.

It occured to me that you could give each patron a headset.

No music would exist in the air.

The patrons would hear it through the headsets.
So you could sit-take off the headsets, and have conversation.

Or you could get on the dancefloor and put on the headsets.

You could even change channels. You could have say three club deejays spinning
three differen dance mixes on three different radio channels- say- techno, oldschool funk, current top 40. Just flick the switch on your headset- and dance to the beat of your own drummer.

Interesting ideas, although the cheap drink/confusing darkness and bright lights/loud renditions of the same songs every night formula just works, on the general public anyway.
