MTL baby
i used to live in montreal. I was there in may for a few weeks. Let see, if u wanna see historical stuff, make sure u dont miss Old Port, its a cool place to chek out for a day, lots of touristy stuff, greate place for poutine and beaver tales. Make sure you hit the main strip St. Catheine, for shoppin. As far as bars and clubs go, there is a street called Crescent street, it intersects St Catherine, anyone would be able to tell you where its at. This street is jam packed with bars and clubs, its a lot more toursity, take a pick, bars, clubs restaurants caffes and lounges. Another street is called St Laurent, which also intersects st catherine. But you gotta go up a few blocks to get to the good part. other wise, if you decide to walk from st catherines it may look like east hastings. Anyways, this is another strip, packed with bars lounges and clubs. More of the locals go there. But its BUMPIN. U dont have to worry too much about club covers cuz when u walk on st catherines durin the day people will give u flyers and passes like you wouldnt believe. And if you have money to spend and wanna experience somethin DIFFRENT, chek out this club called TIMES, very upscale but unbelievable. Anyways if u need anythin else, pm me. I de be glad to help u out some more.

Yo i lived in Toronto for 2 years, it is called the rave capital of north america, if you go for sure go to "the Guvernment" , "system sound bar", and the "comfort zone" , i am just kidding about comfort zone it is some hole that opens up at like 6:00am and partys all day, i remember i went there one time and czech was suppost to spin, but he never even showed up, toroto rocks the night life is so much better than here

i just got back from nyc last week
make sure to bring ALOT of money cuz shit is fuckin expensive down there. i stayed in upper midtown manhattan right under central park.... theres quite a shitload to see around there.... down 5th and 6th avenue you'll find the louis vuitton building, trump tower, rockerfeller center, st. patricks cathedral.... walk down broadway and you will always see a lineup to david lettermans cbs studio, and further down is time square which is always a serious trip. make sure to buy a week subway pass... the subway in ny is so fuckin awesome.. although its dirty as well.... check out canal street... there you'll find chinatown and little italy... lots of cheap places to get eats in chinatown.. and REALLY expensive places in little italy. theyre re-opening the statue of liberty for climbing up to the top this year so find the ferry at battery park and the most southern point of downtown.... and while you're on your way there check out wall street.. that place is pretty tripped out as well. ground zero is crazy as well... definetly worth checkin out a few times. nightlife..... blah i keep hearing there are so many places to check out but the clubs are pretty concealed... you gotta know your way around the city to find some of these places. the only night i got to check out was konkrete jungle.... i guess its worth checkin out.. the scene there is pretty similar to the scene here in terms of the people who show up but i guess it is alot more happening and busier... i cant remember the club name but you can find out more details on www.konkretejungle.com lotta cool museams around the place as well.... the museam of natural history on like 70th next to the west point of central park is HUUUUUUGE and make sure you check out the carnegies deli on like 7th and i think 56th street.... get a corned beef sandwich.... its like 12 dollars but DAMN ITS HUUUUGE! by far the biggest sandwich i've had in my fuckin life! lotta cool places to get food and its good to have rich friends or relatives who work in manhattan to take you to all the fancy bars for drinks. |

yeah MTL does have a sick party life. Oh by the way i forgot, there is a plce called ARIA, its a fukin HUGE after hours venue, probably with a capacity of 2 3 thousand peeps. Its got 2 rooms, one is hip hop one is the main headliner, last time i was there i caught max graham for free, cuz they were givin out tix for free at a previous club i was at. And u dont have to worry about speakin french, EVERYONE speacks english, and even though i speak fluent french i still didnt know how to say taquila in french lol :P
hope u enjoy ur stay ps. Monique, you always have the coolest avs, and even though u go to ubc i still havnt met u yet. |
