So we know how uh, not blessed by any means Phoenix is when it comes to clubbing, real raves, or decent sound systems. I'm super into underground music, EDM, and trance. Not really big on drinking as my form of entertainment; I want to go for the MUSIC and DANCING goddamn it. Oh, and chill people who aren't stuck up or wannabe hipsters/super duper asu sluts and frat boy douche canoes. It's a bit of a desert out here when it comes to that (no pun intended...)
For a first time night at Smashboxx though we were not dissapointed. Lasers, disco balls, geysers from the ceiling, and yay for discounted drinks if you're the DD. Cool house hits I haven't heard before so they weren't shitty mainstream until the DJ started playing shitty mainstream rap as a shoutout to the super drunk birthday crew there haha. No fun if you're not in a group as loners tend to be few and far in between. I would say 4 stars because I danced and had a lot of fun with my friends and I didn't get hit on by some wierd country wannabe like what happens at bars out here.
Still doesn't meet that chill vibe I'm craving for in the Valley...I will have to keep looking out for it.
