I was at that night. I just popped in for one pint though and then went off to another night I was playing just round the corner. Both good.si 2 bad wrote:Had the same conversation with blame and nookie last night at a little bash in herts!!! I am 41 now, go out rarely but drank like a 19 year old last night.....have a middle aged hangover today though!
I don't really go to much if I am not playing, I am usually out a few times a month, but will probably be winding it down over the next few months. Again time is scarce now what with working a couple of weekends a month, am married and got family/friends who mostly aren't into the scene. Main thing is the travelling is the killer - especially with a hangover! Saying that I don't go too far afield now and I will still continue to dj out, just not as much. I think I probably only go to things I don't play at maybe once or twice a year. Most gigs I'll stay and make a night of it - unless its absolutely shite!

But back on topic I don't think people should stop going out just because they hit a certain age - its just a number. I think you should stop going out because you don't enjoy it regardless of age! Plus not everyone goes out has to get off their tits to have a good time. I always went out for the music and atmosphere.
