Where do you live? I haven't heard many people in DC, NYC, Philly, Bmore, or Boston say they were flying to the south outside of Miami for anything except the beach.

Other than Freaknik which is dead, nobody on the east goes flips out to go to Atlanta. From DC on up to NYC, everybody talks about the MIA as the party spot. There's this place called "South Beach" that everyone talks about.

DC is king when it comes to these type of events.
Yeah, but we're talking about average joes here mainly. Plus I'm pretty sure that this isn't an every weekend occurrence like it is with the celeb-hosted parties in Atlanta. That's just Atlanta's forte and they pretty much have it all over every other city of similar size (probably except Miami) when it comes to that. I'm not saying it's better or worse overall, but you've got to give it that much.

Umm..this is DC. Stars come through here a dime a dozen. We have so many places to party here we don't keep track of who is here and who isn't.

I mean Lil Wayne, Drake & John Wall all partied at Love this night and I couldn't care less. If I had planned to go out that night and I decided to go to the 3 level Love Night Club, then so be it but who cares.

Spotted: Lil Wayne, Drake & John Wall at Love « EliteDC Magazine .:: 4.0 ::. DC x MD x VA Lifestyle Specialist
Spotted: Eva Pigford, Josh Cribbs and Ray Rice at Lux

Spotted: Jermaine Dupri at Stadium Friday

So how many of you groupies actually know a star and will be in their entourage. This is city-data.com. I don't even tell my friends I'm on here lol...

It seems you totally missed my point.

You guys (everybody, not just DC'ers) really need to lighten up a bit.

So ATL's nightlife, can't hold a candle to DC's? Based on what exactly? A couple of lounges?

People are saying this according to their own personal preferences. Mine are actually more in line with DC's nightlife scene, but I'd be crazy to think that everybody likes what I like especially since I prefer a more subdued scene on a regular basis anyway. Hell, for the most part, it's just a bunch of Black dudes 21-35 carrying this discussion anyway. That skewers things significantly.
