Yo. Lil end of summer update.
Right now I'm actually packing up my truck and boat ready for another trip to Havasu for Labor Day weekend.
Figured I'd share some more observations about the club scene:
Foreign male influence is a big part of the problem. I have to travel a bit for work, and I travel a lot for play, and one thing I noticed is there are tons of British guys, Brazillian guys, and italian guys flooding to US tourist traps, but they are only males. I heard an anecdote from a navy friend talking about plane fulls of Brazillian men landing near his station, but never any of the women. The guys come, without equal female numbers, and just totally bulk up the male ratios in popular US spring/summer destinations.
Since he told me that, I've kept my eyes open, and that's a BIG part of why spring break destinations have been so bad recently.
As for clubbing in general. Clubs are for dates now, groups. They are NOT meat markets anymore. The meat markets are the social spots, the bars, the lil events. You won't meet your girls in clubs anymore, but you can use clubs as good day two/seduction scenario spots, if you know how to work that lifestyle.
I'm in San Diego, former military, etc. Lot of my friends live up in the Inland Empire, north of Base, renting houses. It has been a GOLD mine for me this year. SoCal is not out of the running yet, but the Coastal areas have been abused. I just spent a week in OC for work, some good, whole lot of bad. I can give better detail if requested, after I get back from my trip.
Vegas was still Vegas, but the foreign male influence was HUGE. I went to Vegas in May and July, and all over the place you saw the Euro dudes, whole teams worth, and not a single girl in sight. I talked to a bunch of them, trying to find out what's good, and they all said they came in groups of 5-10 guys, not a single girl, as "we came to find some American lasses mate".
They also get very drunk and can quickly ruin a party.
Dance game is QUASI-irrelevant because of what I listed earlier. dance game is a comfort and seduction tactic now, not really attraction. It will be hard to dance with NEW girls in many popular spots. They will all be in their groups with their dates/table mates. How you use dancing THESE days is to get a good club outing planned, and use your dance skills to build comfort with and seduce a girl you invited out.
A blueprint for me and some of my boys has been:
meet girls randomly wherever, invite them over to wherever to pre-game, go clubbing(dance, comfort, invite the seduction), bring them back for the afterparty, drink more, smoke weed, throw them into the pool, etc.
It's been pretty golden.
I still lone wolf in clubs and bars and it's still the same ole same ole, but the game has changed.
I'm not looking forward to this havasu trip at all, it is going to be 118 degrees and a major sausage fest. My boys just got back from Astan , so I'm going for their sake.
