Show up at 1AM, and you've only got about half an hour before the place stops serving booze or shuts down entirely. If you get to the club at midnight, you'll be part of the apocalyptically large bombardment of arrivals and spend more time waiting in line than on the dancefloor. If you get to the club a 11PM, you'll be the only person in the room. Los Angeles exists in an unfortunate timewarp. Who knows, you may like the opener more than the main attraction.- Joel Fowler Don't say "oh man, I missed your set" again and again.
A good one is patient, they thrive on an ability to embrace a different vibe or tempo and there's a lot more freedom to move around musically.

It always takes those few brave souls to get the floor really going but by 1 it's in full swing. Midnight in New York City is a great time, it's when the room slowly starts to fill and transition into a proper party.ĭrinks start flowing, people loosen up, bodies absorb the sound and a thumping kick drum starts to feel less foreign. For DJs who constantly open, we call the 10PM to 1AM set the "security slot"-if you can get security bobbing their head in an empty room then you're doing it right. Getting there at 12AM means you can support the (usually local) opener and the ramp-up. The 10PM-12AM period is for the folks who want to say they came to a party, but won't really give to the nightlife. And then, if you're having a hard time dealing with the austere environs of the megaclub, you can always head to a different show, or even to bed! We won't judge! Man cannot live on techno alone.- Colin Joyce If your club of choice opens their doors at 10PM, 11:30PM will be prime time to catch the best local support on the bill, which in New York can mean excitement far exceeding the headliner, even if the crowd's more sparse.

At some of the more DIY minded venues in New York, the evening's early show will still be ongoing at 11:30PM, leaving you a prime half an hour to catch the latest buzzy act in blackened punk or bedroom pop or alt-country or whatever, before you spend the next four plus hours bouncing to a barely modulating kick drum. There's surely few circles of hell lower than having to navigate the discomfort of being alone in a nearly empty room with a DJ and their bored significant other, but the early part of the night is still the sweet spot if only because it provides you with options. The late DJ Rashad was right when he declared on an early track that being in the club before 11PM was, well, kinda early. You arrive early enough to have a few drinks, catch the headliner (usually), and then cab it home early enough so that you can wake up before noon feeling relatively refreshed.- Emilie Friedlander The 11:00 PM arrival time is perfect for that. You need to save time and energy for other things in life-like doing laundry, and seeing non-scene friends, and whatever late-capitalist urban pastimes you like to spend your expendable income on (juice-drinking? brunching? pilates?).

Maybe you just get old-or maybe, as I like to think of it, you learn through experience that spending all your free time hanging out with inebriated people while screaming over loud music and pretending you actually hear what your conversation partner is saying isn't going to spiritually fill you up. At a certain point, you just get sick of going to work in morning and feeling like shit, or sleeping through all the sunlight hours on Saturdays and Sundays and wondering why you're so depressed. I've been balancing various more-than-full-time music writing jobs with going out for about six years now.
