OK, SO you’re in a nightclub.
But is it a real, genuine, staight-down-the-line-no-messing Irish nightclub?
You’ll know it is when…
1. Your feet are stuck to the floor
By layers of sweat, spilt Heineken and Lynx Africa.
2. The crush at the bar would be considered a health hazard in most EU countries
3. There are girls wearing GAA jerseys
4. Someone has requested Galway Girl
Photocall Ireland
5. There is carpet covering part or all of the walls
6. At one point you accidentally wander into a hotel reception
7. A man is doing an ‘ironic’ or ‘comedy’ dance
8. The DJ stops the music for people to roar ‘WHO THE F*** IS ALICE’ at the appropriate time
9. At the slightest sign of rap music, every man does embarrassing ‘urban’ dance moves
10. There is a man/woman working in the toilet
Who everyone thinks they’re mates with, but really you’re all irritating the hell out of him/her.
11. You can always smell the jacks, even if it’s nowhere in sight
12. There are totally arbitrary (but rigorously enforced) rules about where you can and can’t walk/dance/take your drinks

13. There is a couple REALLY going for it on the couches off the dancefloor
14. There are posters advertising an appearance by a Home And Away star
15. Maniac 2000
16. There is a fight when the lights go on
17. There is a savage rush to get you out because they have to set up for the communion/confirmation/85th birthday party that is using the same spot the next day
