u know what iam not even gonna argue with you about drinking is a drug and all your opinions
the fact is that clubs dont get shut down due to the sale of alcohol
they get shut down due to the sale of drugs
case closed

| Originally posted by DJ Eco yea, sandstorm03, hes right, theres a million bars everywhere that wont get shutdown no matter how many ppl walk out drunk as hell.... venues wont get shut down because of drinking, so in that respect, its no where near as powerful as a drug (in the club industry at least) |

| Originally posted by tiesto14 FINALLY someone who speaks with sense....i can vouch for what you say because i was in Palladium, Sound Factory, Limelight, Tunnel and beleive it or not Latin Quarters and the Vault when i was under 18.... Times were definatly different then under Dinkins' rule...i LVOE Giulliani for everything EXCEPT what he did to the club scene...and yes you can blame most of it on him...but all in all his plan worked and was good for the city. Limelight WAS strict to a degree....mainly with special parties in the early to mid 90s....but if u dressed the part then u got in...but if you were some wannabe bridge and tunnel kid...pfff forget it better hit that path train...but apart from Limelight i never had an punce of trouble getting into clubs or even drinking in the early 90s... But as i grew...and yes when i was 19-21 i started to realize that age enforcement was a good thing because young guys TEND to get carried away with things...women mature faster then men so it doesnt have as much to do with girls..... Shit got stricter when Mirage started to close and went to Carbon i think....thats when i noticed my younger friends having problems getting in places...at that point i was over 21 so it didnt phase me.... |

| Originally posted by trunks1022 LOL yale... come on lee, police have nothing better to do on college campuses than to bust parties all the time. i saw this all the time at an ivy league school (penn). a lot of places got shut down because of that stuff. i'm just commenting because you included a small city (new haven) along with the other two articles. |
To say that people 24-25+ or whatever aren't more mature than kids 18 is absolutely retarded. I remember thinking when I was a junior in college that the kids coming in were like wild animals. Then I remembered myself being that crazy too when I was a freshman. As you get older, you still party hard but TYPICALLY do it a more responsible manner. Of course there's always exceptions!! An age limit isn't a bad idea either. Partying next to 50 year olds bombed out of their mind is a bit creepy.
When I was under 21, we didn't just bitch about things. We got creative and got fake ID's or smoothed our way in with the bouncer. Then you get caught by the police and they shake ya down a bit and you get scared but later you toughen up. We don't just go "let me in, let me in" sniffle, sniffle
I can't speak of NYC back in the day, I didn't live here.
I had to walk up hill in the snow to get to the club. You could only walk 7 miles each way. Sometimes if you were lucky though the nearest wagon train would give you a lift.

I'd rather have it stay 21+ ... to lessen the already horrible crowds in NYC clubs and also to avoid having to deal with being surrounded with cracked out teenagers.
yea.... god knows what these 18 y/o house and trance addicts would be doing if the clubs all turned 21+.... putting on the latest Tiesto In Concert DVD and getting cracked out AT HOME watching all the pretty colors 
it solves nothing.

it's all about:
the way kids are brought up here and the way the media and our role models influence us -- e.g. wanting to look cool and tough at the club, showing up to prove something, etc.... bunch of media-influenced BS
and
the drinking age
East coast bias!! Sorry, I'm from Seattle. But it also includes California (population 50 million). Las Vegas is 21+. Any midwestern state. Places in the south.

Everything in society is based on what the media presents us with. The American society is becoming more and more relient on the media to provide us with everything. Society is going down the tubes.
