The Sociology of Nightclubs

On the surface, the club is a place of loud music, people, and generally speaking the wild consumption of alcohol.

Sociology is the cause of my torment to reach for understanding, hopefully students of Social Science may resonate and students of other disciplines will begin to pause. As I walk down Harcourt street at eleven o’clock at night I begin to regret not leaving the Bleeding Horse earlier. Ugh their out! The people who have chosen to cloak themselves not only with their ‘evening wear’ but an impenetrable layer of perfume. Perhaps I shouldn’t be so hastening to judge.
