Truth be told, and while I LOVE LA, I dont find it a really exceptional party city. I grew up in the area and while its a very exciting city and there is always a party, I would not put it on the same level as Miami or Vegas for parties and nightlife. Its actually not at all dis-similar to Dallas (where I currently live) in terms of good parties and after parties.
I just cant place it up there with places like Miami, Vegas, Chicago, NYC, Philly, or New Orleans for being a crazy party city.
Philly and even Chicago over L.A. for nightlife is a stretch.

In my opinion it isnt. I realize this is all subjective. I much prefered living in LA over Chicago, but having lived in LA and Chicago I would rank Chicago as much more of a party city and as having a better nightlife.
I have not lived in Philly, so my judgements are based on my visits to Philly vs. living in LA.
Agreed, which is why I believe Dallas, SLC, Houston, Austin, Buffalo, San Antonio and Columbus should not be on that list. The only votes they'll garner are from people who are from those areas. I've lived in Dallas and Austin and the nightlife for both those cities pales when compared to Chicago, NY, Vegas, etc. No competition whatsoever.

L.A. has the best night clubs this side of Miami and Vegas, a great live music scene, and a good bar scene. We'll have to agree to disagree on this one.
