Night Time

I decided to check out Abuja night life yesterday and ended up at a club called Play. I had a blast. The music was decent, it was packed but not too packed and there wasn't a lot of the fronting and showing off that we see in Lagos clubs. I can't say much about the decor cos I was otherwise occupied and didn't really look around, but it wasn't a large club. Also can I just say that Abuja people are fine? Guys and girls, just so much eye candy everywhere and everyone was there to have fun, not just stand around looking fine. The fashion on display ranged from totally decked out to quite casual but no one looked out of place.

It was bring your own booze night at the club. That concept is unheard of to me. You bring your own booze and there's no cover charge. They also give you ice and cups. You can buy drinks at the bar too if you run out or decide not to bring yours. Pretty cool right?

The highlight of the night for me was probably getting recognised by an LITK fan. Well she recognised my hair lol. Also got a lot of compliments on my hair and had an "I love your hair" moment with a loc'd natural at the club. Met some really nice people too.

There were some reps from a modelling agency handing out flyers at the club. The flyer said that an application to join the agency cost NGN3500. Now that isn't a huge amount of money but I thought agencies get paid by taking their cut from you earnings and not by asking you for money? Hmmm...

All in all I had a much better clubbing experience than I've had in a while and I would recommend thursday nights at Play to anyone. Don't forget to bring your booze!
