The Euro Club Scene

The past two weeks, we've been sticking to the pubs and more American clubs, but last night we went to our first real euro club to see Yelle preform (click the link to view one of her live performances on youtube). She was amazing . So much energy and everyone was having such an awesome time. Just another tidbit involving Yelle and my France location, the song 'Je Veux Te Voir' was featured in the Entourage Cannes episode, yea for Provence!! After Yelle preformed, I'm not quite sure what happened, I think someone released pepper spray, but it was horrible. Burning lungs and sneezing all over the place, but the cool thing is, we escaped to the same stairwell as Yelle and got to breath some fresh air with her. Eventually it went away and we got back to dancing.
Anyways about the Euro club scene. So I totally thought it was just going to be a bunch of slimy punk kids and a bunch of terrible house music, all drums and bass, but I was surprised to find quite the opposite...well there was still the slimy punk kids, but the DJs featured that night turned some of the sweetest remixs I have ever heard in my life. However, these slimy punk kids love dancing in this euro style called tecktonik. The only way i can explain it is that they flail their arms about and look ridiculous. It's huge amongst the French youth. Stupidest thing I have ever seen. Also, when the French do go out, they like to stay out very late. We eventually had to split at around 3:30am because we were so tired, but the frenchies were still bumpin'.
Another cool thing about the club we went to, was since it was way out on the outside of Aix, they had a little van that would pick you up, take you to the club, and bring you back to your house, for free. It was the first night I didn't have to walk a mile to get back to my place. Awesome. (Speaking of which mom, I'm pretty sure all my shoes will be worn through by the end of this trip..) All in all, best night in Aix to date.
