I agree...vibe is really important...but maybe not as much as may be suggested here (at least not for me). The music and who I'm with is far more relevant to me.
I usually try to comment on the overall vibe...ie. is the crowd energized and really getting into the DJ's set, are the people friendly/polite as you navigate the club, is there a "happy" mood on the dancefloor, etc.
But...I tend to go out with friends, almost never alone. I don't feel the need to meet anyone when I go to a club...that's not my purpose for going out...but I'm always up for meeting new people, or chatting if someone approaches me and says hello, especially people from TA. It's a definite bonus though...just not a "purpose" for me, I guess. At Dumonde, I went with two other people, and ended up chatting and/or hanging out with at least a dozen at various times, which definitely adds to the enjoyment of the night, no question.
Marco V last month...our group was right at the front, near the stage area, having a blast...I'd look around and see several people kind of standing around, seemingly disinterested. Oh well...tough shit for them. While it's more fun to see an energized crowd, I still had a great time, as did everyone in my group.
So...while the overall vibe is definitely a factor...as a good vibe makes the night more enjoyable...the lack of one will rarely affect my decision to go to a club or leave early, unless it's a *really* bad vibe that interferes with me being able to enjoy myself. So long as I'm there with good friends and good music, I'm happy
