Booty Basement: SD's best shot at a dance floor!


In San Diego there are only a few types of dance floors. A shame for the 8th largest city in America.


Indie/Electro Mashup Anti-dancefloor: Comprised of all the boring and lame people in high school who now wear indie clothes AS their identity (since they never had one before) but STILL don't dance or participate! They mostly bob their heads while grimacing or take sullen photos of them appearing to dance. Music that once had a beat is electronically altered to have just ONE beat, enough for boring people to manage a shuffle or head bob for hours on end.

The 70's/ Funk Dancefloor: Comprised of the 35 and over crowd in San Diego. You know the crowd who was super de duper cool in the 90's and then never fucking left town, desperately waiting for a hey day to return even though if it ever did, which it wont, they'd be too old to participate. The music is strictly disco oriented with some funk music in there so people can reminisce about what it was like to dance to this music "back in the day." Hey, anything to make your existence a bit less pathetic....
The Soul Only Dancefloor: Yes we all love hearing Otis Redding and do wop on the d-floor but not all fucking night! This group is comprised of people who take pride in liking nothing made after 1967 and let you know it by playing the same songs every time they dj as if to drill in your head what they think you should be listening to at all times. All the while being non-inspired and devoid of soul!

The Gaslamp Dancefloor: Comprised of rapists, future rapists, wanna be rapists and the women that love them. Women dance as sluttily as possible in order to lure a guy in to marry and have babies with. Only problem is, the men of our downtown's Gaslamp watch from the edges of the dancefloor getting hard on's as they scan the available women to bone and never call again. All this happens to the soundtrack of Top 40's WORST hits, the lame, bad beat, bad rap, bad all together crap, not even the aiight ones!

The Booty Bassment Dancefloor: FUCKING BOMB. I could stop right there. It's comprised of people who plain just like to fucking dance and get sweaty and don't give a shit about taking pictures because were too busy having a god damn good time and bustin moves. The DJs know how to keep it hot because they play DANCE MUSIC, from every era and genre and time and beat, as long as it keeps us grooving. Throughout the night I said "oh shit, that's my jam!" like 12 times! I could hardly take a break because I'd have to keep running back in to dance. Check it out if you love to dance, seriously!!!
