after yet another few hours of hopelessly trying to 'get my groove on' at some or other drum and bass gig (which in itself was quite alright) i have retreated to my home, feeling possibly even lonelier than before i went outside the house, thanks to all those girls of which perhaps 3 or 4 of them were drunk enough to give me a faint smile, before getting the hell away from me and my spastic movements on the dancefloor that consisted of large slippery cobblestones.

Jeroen, tell me you weren't expecting to pull at a D'n'B gig!? Girls who go to drum and bass for the music will just be dancing around like dicks, pretty oblivious to much else around them except other people dancing about like dicks and the music and the lights. Girls who are there to look pretty and pull are probably not worth getting to know.
I'm not saying you can't meet a girl at a gig, but like Jivvycakes said, don't expect it, or even hope for it. Just carry on dancing like a spastic and enjoy the music!

the only time i went to a drum n bass thing i went with this really pretty girl i liked in vancouver. to ease my tension i drank way too much and ended up making an ass outta myself anyway. even worse, is i think i may have been given the green light before we ever even got there. but i'll never know for sure. damned missed opportunities. oh well.
fuckin' girls. pfft.

Yes, its hardly the ideal pulling ground. Those mad basslines wreck havok with your stomach and if you've eaten some particularly fibre'ish food before, you're in for an awesome night of farting.
The beauty of a dancefloor is that as long as you don't dance in the same place for long, you can keep getting away with it. Awesome stuff.

hahah :D
i didnt go there expecting to 'pull' (never heard that one) but that doesnt make it any less frustrating to be constantly reminded that i'm single (and on my own for that matter, since two people i expected there didnt show up at all). and nobody could give a flying toss about having a chat with me, except my neighbour, whom i sort of forced to talk to me.
Anyway, the music was really good. They even played ed rush & optical which i thought was rather hardcore for 'an evening of soulful drums and breaks'. Even the mc was good.
thanks for the cheering up everyone! Today's a good day.

The worst thing you can do is try to impress girls. Just go out and have fun, enjoy yourself and smile. When you're in a good mood you'll come across much better anyway and who knows what might happen.

i wasnt trying to impress girls. I was trying to enjoy myself. I dance to drum&bass because i think it's fantastic music, no matter how shit i am at dancing to it (it's difficult).
Regardless, i 'failed' at having a fabulous time, but that's largely because i didn't know anyone there.
Now that this thread has gotten way out of hand, let's call it a day. I think i feel a hangover creeping up/down.

for what it's worth: you showed some guts to go out on your own. lots of people already freak out by the idea. you didn't...well almost didn't. but you shouldn't.

Was there bass? Did the crowd give thanksk? (etc)
I have pulled at a D&B night, it was LTJ Bukem, but then again I am a PLAYA. (and it was in NZ where all the girls are loose as.)
Going out and having a shit night can be depressing. And expensive.

The girls are loose in New Zealand because most of the males are bisexual and busy fucking one another.
