Daydreaming about my time spent at Number’s Night Club. Decided to try, yet again, to find decent similar club in Philly. Found a place called Shampoo which has a night called ”Nocturne” every Wednesday. After work I had a company meeting and then was back home. I’d done a little research and dressed appropriately (i.e. all black). I wore the Bruce Lee black Karate jacket thing that I wore a few weeks ago. The place is only 2 blocks north and 4 blocks away. Not bad! All I need is a girlfriend who plays EverQuest and I’ll be just like my favorite friend Jason. So, I walked down there and there were two enormous burly bouncers at the door. I got searched. Then down a staircase. Then buying a ticket at this tiny booth that I nearly passed. From here you have two choices: go downstairs where you can buy drinks and drink and walk around, or go upstairs where they have a large dancefloor, very good music, and no drinks. Unusual. I got there around 9:30 PM so I was skeptical at first. At around 10:30 things really started picking up and getting a decent crowd. It was good people watching times. So difficult since I know absolutely no one there. Back in 1996 when I first became a Number’s regular I had the benefit of my friend Seven and her entourage. I don’t think she goes by Seven anymore, but the name sticks. I had a very decent time and left around 12:15 AM. I had to work the next morning, so the timing of this cool club activity happening in the middle of the week is both a blessing and a curse. The crowd appears to be mobile, however. There is a place called La Tazza (or something like that) where, I believe, the same kind of crowd and music will be present. Next time I’ll bring a camera. The crowd was way more gothically coifed than any I’ve ever seen before. Wondering how they would react to Batman trolling in one day.


Matrix Revolutions reviews are coming in. So far of the three that I have read the buzz is great. I’m psyched. First show is at 9 AM on November 5th. Seriously doubt I will be making that as I should be at work at that time. We’ll see. Anyone planning to go to the very first showing?
