HOW TO HAVE FUN AND AVOID LAME EVENTS

I am not a concierge service, but for some reason, people always assume I know what is going on in St. Louis. So this blog is created for all the people that want to get out and enjoy what this city has to offer. I know, I know, there is nothing to do in St. Louis, right? WRONG! This city is always hosting great events and outings, you just have to know where to look.

(Those facebook event invites get on my nerves!)

The title of this article has nothing to do with the subject matter if you haven't caught on by now. For whatever reason, St.Louisans love topics that center around the things wrong with people's attitudes and outlooks. You'll notice that if you pay close attention to us. This will all change very soon, bare with us.

The best way in my opinion to have an awesome time in this city is to hang out with people that have traveled. It may seem like a no-brainer, but trust me: PEOPLE WITH CULTURE ARE FUN TO BE AROUND. This city is enriched with different cultures and ethnic backgrounds. On any given evening you can stumble into a venue that will make you feel like you're in an underground dubstep party in Camden. Seriously.

Another thing to remember: "BEWARE OF THE "IN CROWD". These people will look like they are the socialites of the city, but trust when I say they have been clubbing and partying for 10+ years. People that want to go out every weekend usually are out just to be seen, and will only go to places they think the cameras are flashing. That's not how you want to enjoy yourself in St. Louis because eventually, you're gonna notice just how wack the club scene is. Instead, you want to find the DJ that plays music YOU  like and try to make it to their events when possible. Maybe purchase their mixtapes and support them whenever you can. This way you don't get burnt out with going to the same venue over and over and over again.

Last but not least: EXPLORE NEW THINGS! You have to expand on the things you've been used to. St. Louis offers so much, its hard not to be exposed to something fresh and dope. Sure, 1 out of 8 people you meet here are either an artist, promoter, or producer, but find out what interest you have and then look for some worthwhile events and alternatives to start enjoying yourself in STL!
