Any city worth living in is like this; unfortunately in the US that's NYC and Miami and maybe one or two others. Don't you have at least one club that runs 9 am - 3 pm on sundays too?

Well, those places where you can keep partying from morning to noon/afternoon are called "afters" here. There are some in my city, or so I´d think, but probably kinda shady. THe big cities have better "afters" to go once you are kicked outta the clubs.

Yes, in Hong Kong, Shanghai and Beijing. All of them were recommended by locals who apparently knew the scene.
They all played US hiphop like Flo Rida, 50 cent etc. It's better than clubs that play Lady Gaga for sure, but still commercial and the people were not really there for the music. Of course there's underground clubs for the heads everywhere. I made a broad generalization.
I imagine Tokyo is pretty good though.


Was just in all three of those cities two months ago. While the music generally wasn't great (hiphop / mainstream EDM ie. Guetta), they definitely did not close early. Was at some places until 6, 7 or 8 in the morning.

All the after hours in Toronto are like scenes from films set in some dystopian future. Smoking indoors, illegal gambling, cocaine dealers and thugs.

Now that you mention it, I have some vague memories of going out in Beijing in the middle of the week and coming back to the hotel at around 7. The club was pretty packed too. Met some girls that went directly to class after the night was over, haha.

Every time I visit the Y-3 store in Soho I wonder why nobody is talking about the brand. Decent prices and cool designs. Is it the association with Adidas that kills interest here?


lots of reasons:

- it's really not that cheap
- adidas assocation
- historically Y-3 has produced nothing but total dogshit - just horrible tacky branded ****
- the most available items are still the tackiest things

I've wondered the same thing. I really like some of their stuff for comfortable/work out outfits.

because i go to school in a real city, our college cops are real cops - guns, they patrol a big area of the city, can arrest. also because of that they don't give a **** if you're drinking in public because they have crackheads to roust.

This. Most stores have horrible Y-3 buys, almost nothing without the massive logo plastered all over.

You really do have to go to check out one of their own stores to find the better pieces.
