Clubbing in Japan

Tweet

Did you know that the bars, clubs, and some restaurants in Japan do no close until 7 am? Oh yes it was the best. We would go to the Officers club and get our $1.50 drinks, yes the military overseas did not charge too much for my Gin and Juice. After we drank to our hearts content and danced with some amazing guys and girls we would all load up and head out the base gate and to the nearest club. There were at least 5 or more immediatley outside the military gate so we would park the vehicles inside and walk to which ever club we were into for the night. There was this one called DejaVu. It was great you paid 2000 yen to get in which at that time was about $20 american dollars. They would give you drink tickets at the door and you had your choice of bars. Obviously we chose the bar with the shortest line. The drinks were amazing; they say they used embalming fluid in some of them which I have a hard time believing. I had one once that tasted exactly like fruit punch not an ounce of alcohol. But man when I finished it I was toast. This club was a two story so you could look down on the dance floor or just go down and dance. The dance floor was body to body crowded and the music 50% techno and 50% hip hop. All I can say is it was thee most fun I ever had- partying in the Japanese clubs. We were out of place as we were outnumbered nationality wise, but we still met so many people and we made friends and we had a blast. At 7 am the clubs close and you walk outside and it is light out...the best thing to do on the way to the base gate so we can all go home, yes stop at the nearest restaurant and get some ramen and gyoza (potstickers in america). This is not the ramen you buy in the little cutsy packets, this is the real deal. have you been clubbing in Japan? What was the best place you ever when clubbing?
