movie marathon continues with small break

Ok took a break from movies cause last night I did something different i decided to do my version of a pub crawl - instead sitting all by my lonesome and moping that I am all by myself - I went out and moped - no just kidding

I parked At one end of the casino strip in Atlantic city and started wandering teh casinos (crawling) with a mission - instead of going from pub to pub to drink I was going from casino to casino looking for music

I started in the Taj and found a lounge act and caught a couple songs before they went on break - then headed to resorts - tried to find the tabou night club gave up and headed to sands - stopped at the Swingers bar but they were not going to have a band until 11 (the middle one did not show) so finished my orange vodka screwdriver and headed to Ballys - there I found the Blue Martini bar and enjoyed this 11 man ensemble that was a Motown cover (everything from Aretha, Marvin, Low Rider and more) stayed for an Orange rush martini, two sets and cute bartender ho kept getting me water - whee

Then I headed outside to one of the beach bars and caught a 80s 90s cover band while enjoying my diet coke. I still had a bunch of casinos left but decided to head back - but I had always wanted to check out the Casbah nightclub in the Taj

so I went and DAMN I LIKE - they have dancers and basically a floor in the middle, a metal railing around (so I could lean, dance drink my Smirnoff Ice and watch (ok and drool...) oh man) and continuous techno mix - the outer edge is rimmed by two bars, some tables then special enclave exclusive booths that have curtains that can be drawn. Add in the bubble and steam effects they occasionally turned on covering the dance floor in steam and bubbles (man when Shakira's newest song came on the place went wild complete with bubble mania) but I got to dance some and the techno beat was pumping and good.

So then headed back through Taj, caught the end song of another group at the one lounge and then headed home.

But will continue movie marathon along with chores for rest of weekend.
