| - Matt and I will admit that we are total booze hounds. So no wonder why we love Drift. I can order a pitcher of mojitos for $20 and Matt can order a pitcher of draft beer for $9. What a steal of a deal!
Normally it costs me $10-15 for a single mojito. But at Drift, my $20 goes much further. I can get a pitcher that provides 4-5 glasses! And a pitcher of draft beer for merely $9? A lot of places charge $9 for one glass!
At Drift, the two of us can grab a comfy booth, take pitchers of our favorite drinks to the dome and drift away to the DJ's beats.
Does it really get any better than that? Actually, yes it does...
Now the next part of my story has nothing to do with the fact that on this specific occasion at Drift, each of us drank our own pitcher of booze plus some pre-gaming before our night out. We would totally do something like this sober (just ask friends, family or people who've invited us to their wedding, they've seen our antics).
Matt and I really enjoy breaking it down on the dance floor. Our moves are legendary. I challenge anyone to a dance off. We'll chew your moves up and spit them out.
Anyway, that particular night at Drift, we loooved the DJ's music because he was playing more than just the standard overplayed pop radio hits.
Suddenly... MJ's "I want you back" came on... I couldn't hold back any longer... I grabbed Matt's hand and pulled him onto the dance floor... We unleashed our moves...
We brought out the robot, the shimmy, the shake, the fax machine, the sprinkler, the arm sway, the twist down and up from the floor, the running man (just to name a few). Matt even did his famous Michael Jackson dance.
Normally, our dancing isn't so welcome at Scottsdale clubby spots where people are bumpin and grindin. Those pretty people clones just aren't cool enough to let loose and be themselves. However, the crowd at Drift is a little different. People were not only smiling and laughing (normally they just give us the stink eye or look at us like we are aliens - I mean heck, maybe we are!) but they joined us on the dance floor and started having fun too!
Then, I started the Macarena. I don't do that dance often as its special, and only reserved for specific occasions. But I felt the need to share this awesomeness with everyone. I HAD to get people to Macarena with me.
And you know what? I got a group to join in! It was awesome. People were thanking us, saying that they haven't been that "silly" in quite some time - wow I thought to myself; you must lead such a boring life! I dance like this all the time!
Moral of the story is, be yourself! And Drift has that fun, laid back, be yourself kind of atmosphere. It's a friendly spot! Of course there are some d-bags and super skanks like a usual Old Town hang out, but Drift is a little more watered down than a place like Axis (puuuuuuuke).
Drift's tiki-themed interior is pretty intricately designed with dim lighting, tiki statues, bamboo shrubbery, cozy seating and greenish blue coloring. I also really enjoy drinking my mojito pitcher out on the patio. They have awesome happy hour specials and a great atmosphere for any sized group. Every time I've been it hasn't been uncomfotably crowded either. Oh, and did I mention that I love their DJ's music?
If you're ever at Drift and you see two crazies on the dance floor, come join us! We just might convince you to join our electric slide, conga line or limbo how low can you go contest. You never know!
