LOL i used to fucking love Metro, they used to give out all those $100 bar tabs for thurs i can see why it went out of business.we used to go there pay cover drink our worth and leave.

i am the same way, i swear there is just nothing goin on in this city EVER. Not much into rock but been to those bars a couple times dont mind them. after travelling and being 2 some of the bigger clubs like in NY or cancun or anywhere for that matter makes calgary clubs seem a waste of time.
Back alley and Snatch don't play a whole lot of rock most nights, they call them rock bars but really they play the same music as everywhere else. Metro was awesome... practically free liquor and ladies night there was like shooting fish in a barrel. I think a Coco Bongo style club would do really well in Calgary.

I think the problem is that a small handful of people own the majority of the bars here and they put no creativity into it. If pennylane invested a little into making good unique bars instead of rotating through clones of Cowboys that fail every few years Calgary would have a much better scene.
