Veranda Panda and Goodluck at Tiger Tiger

I think this sums up the evening...

Good morning! I write with a hangover from the comfort of my bed after a rather pleasant evening.
I am reminded that it does not matter where you go as long as the company is good. I spend the evening with two new friends Liam and Jane who perform as Veranda Panda and did so last night at Tiger Tiger Pietermaritzburg. 
They got going after their set to play another club in Margate which left my friends and I dancing to Goodluck. 
It was only after being pushed around by the bouncers that I was reminded why I don't like club venues. Apparently there are people who have more privileges than others on the dance floor. One has to first filate the bouncer before he allows you the honour of being on his turf (I speak metaphorically of course). Too bad for him I was already gagging on my drink (I'm sure I asked for a gin and tonic). But I have met this bouncer before; he was the one who would not let a certain DJ into the club even after said DJ confirmed that he was actually playing the club.
I am not writing this with any bad spirit to anyone involved, but as a journalist I see so many stories where bouncers lose control and harm patrons and this kind of thing is unnecessary. I think that perhaps Mr big dick needs to come a few steps closer to earth so we can all just have a good time.
After all it was a good night and I daresay I shall be back (this is an unavoidable sad fact) but for now I am going back to bed. Thanks everyone you are awesome.
