Most of the time, I don't go out just to go out. I go out to see talent...and special talent.
I don't really go out and see local DJs too often because they play so often I pretty much run into them playing from time to time at places I just end up at.
Right now things are dead here thanks to Love Parade. I was gonna go out this past weekend but I was just tired. This upcoming weekend will be the first time I will be going out (in LA) since Second Sun played here early this month...
Starting with next week, though, I'll probably be going out 6-10 times a month in the next few months knowing seeing how some of the lineups are coming out.
I used to go out 6 nights A WEEK (Mon - Sat)...whether it was to a bar (with friends/workmates), a lounge (for some musik), or a club. The biggest peeve I have is simply being bored and I was always bored at home (being single at the time :-p) so I'd go out just to keep myself occupied. It started out as a very expensive task but once I got to know all the bartenders, I'd probably never spend more than $15-$20/night because I'd get the mad hookups. Run a $100+ tab, be charged $12 (because the credit card minimum was $10). Run a $30 tab, would often just be handed the card back and just made sure to leave a nice tip regularly, then a very nice tip every once in a while to show the appreciation.
I don't go to bars that much (usually only if workmates ask me if I want to go) these days -- wouldn't either, all the bartenders I knew are pretty much gon --, pretty much never go to lounges (just don't like the crowds), and the clubbing scene just isn't as homely here like it used to be so motivation (a good DJ) is needed for me to go.
I miss the days when I could go to a club (Ten15) on any night w/o looking at the lineup and go in knowing I was going to have a good time because I could always count on good music, tons of people I know being there, and not have to worry about an aggro crowd.
Damn, this turned into a long post.
