This Weekend

The weekend started on Thursday for me. I learnt earlier in the week that Fat Boyz has happy hour every Sunday to Thursday from 4pm to 7pm. Where you buy one and get another free for any Club product.
So on Thursday I was there at exactly 3:57 pm. With my friends of course. And Fat Boyz didn't disappoint so we stayed till 9pm after which we left for the Rock Nite at steak Out - Totally enjoyed ourselves.

On Friday I went to a place I'd not been to for over a year. Kyadondo Rugby Club. I'd stopped going there because of the crazy crowds it had. You could hadly move at that place but it looks like when we stopped going there every body else stopped. So yesterday we just decided to drop by and check it out. We actually ended up staying. The crowds changed and reduced, the music is good and the beer is very cold at only 2k. I left at 2am without my friends. They left at 4am.

I went to Ange Mystique after that. I wonder if people in this city use their beds on weekends. At night that is. Everywhere you go is full, I wonder where all these people come from. But well this is our city.

Now let me get ready for another crazy one.

Yesterday was crazy, seeing Chelsea's champions league dreams shattered. Ouch,It must have been painful. I watched the game from the bridge. It's some place in bugolobi, popularly known as Old Bamboo. The place was full of Chelsea fans and bitter Asernal guys. Some Asernal chaps were still grieving."I hope Chelsea wins and showers Man.u" was a common statement. By the time a man sides with one of his enemies,then you know things a tight. By added time, Chelsea fans were already buying beers like a problem. All the Chelsea fans in the bar were so sure thier club had booked its place in Rome. Madness broke out when Barcelona equalised. Guys were in tears.
I looked for the nearest exit and headed for Kati-Kati in Lugogo

There was drama at Kati-Kati,some dissapointed fans failed to pay their bill. The askaris caught them escaping at the gate. Imagine two guys with two chics. Luckily they were bailed out by Barcelona supporter. The guy didnot only pay their bill but bought them two rounds. I hahad!

Dusk till dawn

It’s the middle of the week but I’m still getting over the blues of last Friday. It started as a quiet night at Clement Hill Hotel. That place has a ballistic dungeon bar. Its one of those places you go to when you are tired of the usual Kampala crowd. The place is full of cooperate guys. Since am few steps away from the ladder, I insisted on mixing with the crowd. It was amazing the booze was being brought in crates; I managed to fluke free beer. Trust me; nothing tastes better than a free beer. The night was getting cold; we decided to party indoors all the way. On a Friday, indoors was definitely the disco. We decided to go to club silk. Honestly it's the guys who decided,I was going with flow.

By the time we got to silk, everyone around me was speaking in tongues. This time it wasn’t the Holy Spirit, alcohol was in the midst. Lounge and Oxygen were on fire. They were playing fine old school music. Its fun watching some of Kampala’s cream grooving their heads off. That’s the thing with Silk lounge and Oxygen you rub shoulders with the guys you read about in the papers. Next time I plan to go there with my CV, damn the CEOs were more than the drinks.
We danced until 5 am; time does really fly when you are having fun. Looking at the crowd, one would think the night had just started. As were leaving the club, someone suggested Phatboys. I know 5am! They say if you can’t beat them, just join them.
I swear Ugandans can party. phat boys was full. People were still drinking like crazy. We hang out at phatboys until 7am. I love my country.

Friday is a public holiday!!!!

I know tonight is going to be a good night to be out. The timing it perfect. Friday is a public holiday, many people just got paid, there I said it. So am sure all bars are stocking extra if they haven't already.

In this city that is very good news. I know people who have been planning for their partying for this weekend since Monday. Yesterday while at my favourite bar I heard a friend of mine plan it out; "Tomorrow I'll come for the Back to the Oldskool night till like 1am, then go to the rock night at Steak Out. My chic will be in Ange with her friends for the campus night so I'll be with the boys ".

Zone 7 makes 3 years this Friday and the party is on today. That is going to be a crazy one, I'll definitely be there. Can't miss it for anything.

If you can't be out tonight, don't worry. I'll tell you all about it tomorrow. If I still have the energy to write.

The weekend that was

Crazy!
Is all I can say about the weekend. My escapades on Friday saw me end up in Kisementi at Fat Boys. Boy that place happens! I left just before 5:00am to head to Bugos just to have enough sleep before the super 14 game at 8:30am. Thank God the game was delayed by over 30 minutes because I would have missed the entire first half. Someone turned off my alarm clock for some reason.

Then there was Saturday. Boy oh boy! It happened to be my friend's birthday so four of my friends came over to watch the super 14 games and before I knew it we were off again. Time check 12:20pm. We stayed home till after the Man United game and by that time two crates had gone down. Obviously I prefer to watch the Premier league games in a bar but this was different.

Talking about watching soccer in bars. I think bar owners should start paying some money to the Barclays Premiers League. These people's sales go up as much as 20% during the season. Seriously if you love soccer, stop watching it at home. Find a bar near you. It's so much better. The feeling as you look into your opponent's fan's eyes as you thump them is so.... I can't describe it. And of course the unlimited flow of your favourite beer or whiskey or soda for that matter.

Eh, back to my Saturday night. I managed to convince my friends to stop at the Smirnoff Raev Street Jam, and street jam we went. We had a lot of fun, the fireworks was ballistic, but there was no Beebie Man and that is the line I used to convince my friends. But they quickly forgot about it after the fireworks and some good performances from our local boys.

We left the Street Jam after about two hours and headed to Steak Out. Steak Out was on fire so we stayed. I got many phone calls to go to Equator at the Sheraton among other places and kept turning the envitations down but only managed to do that for an hour or so as I finally decided to go. Crazy! Again, Kampala people know how to hang out. This place is at the Sheraton! I know many people who would shut you up the moment you mention drinking at the Sheraton and I don't blame them. But this place also has its people, and they are not few. I'm going to trying it out again this weekend. Before I get high...

Today is the last Tuesday of the month and The Maurice Kirya Experience is on at the Rouge at the Plaza building. This is one of the best live music performances in the country. Maurice collects the country's most talented musicians and poets and puts them on the same stage. He also invites real talent from other countries to spice it up even more. This show is always Lege.....ndary! It only runs from 8:00pm to 10:00pm but for 10k, we get more than we pay for.

And of course being a Tuesday, the Campus night at club silk is on. I missed very few of these during my time at campus and I regret missing them up to now. You want to know why, go find out for yourself.

The Super Tuesday is on at Steak Out today and this is one of the reasons I love my Job.
See you there..

Tonight

It's Friday!!! And the party begins.
I'm still debating where to start from and God knows where I'll end.
I might start at theatre La Bonita to watch the Ebonies' Thorns & Roses or head to cineplex to watch The International. Good movie right there.
Then later I'll head to Kampala rugby club where it's crazy as usual. Which I'll leave at 1:00am and go to Zone 7 for another crazy session.

After that I'll be quite high so let me not even try to imagine where I'll go because the sky is the limit on a Friday night like this being the last of the month. Pheew it's coming to an end.. someone promised us lots of rain and floods but it's quite hot to me.

Oh yes, back to my partying I don't know what time I'll leave Zone 7 or where I'll go but I do know it's not home and certainly not the club. Saving that for the street jam tomorrow where they've promised us The King of Dance Hall, Beanie... For 10k?!! I'll surely get more than my money's worth.

I can't even start guessing where most of you will start as the list is endless but for a good idea of where to start or even finish, visit www.whatshappeninginug.com

Peace a you
