Passion to RUSH

So finally we arrived at Passion. Expectation was running high since everyone was giving the place such a great review.Well no review is a review if it's not by COP.

The place was pretty small and packed. No interesting guy in sight. More of matured 'uncles' still in their work clothes. Sexy girls?? Come on lar, the sexiest was LL. (*holding my chest as I say this...somehow there is some pain there*). If u're the kind who likes sleeping around (and I mean really sleeping and not the slut kind of sleeping), u're gonna love this place coz it has lotsa soft comfy sofas. Basically there's not much place to move. Just a small little dance floor in front of the deejay. And the music was well..just too trance for most of us. By 12 everyone seemed to be dissapearing and then we discovered why :)

They were addicted to the "drug" downstairs called Poppy. That placed was packed and hot. And I mean HOT coz it's kinda open air and aircond-less. Thankfully my nose was kinda senseless due to the alcohol so I did not have to breathe in those sweaty body smell. Did I say sweaty? I should say wet instead! I was so "fortunate" to bump into some people on the dance floor and feel their skin glide (or stick..eeeww) against mine. The music was pretty good and danceable tracks but overall too crowded for dancing enjoyment coz u're either always hitting someone, or someone is trying to use their bum to shove u off!!! You know lar, I am so light and fragile :D

I really would like to give this place a thumbs up but heck, it can't be that great a place if my 2 male companions actually fell asleep in there (??!!??) And NOOOO, it was not because the rest of us were boring, I think it was more because these 2 guys just gotten too old for the night life? Hmm, can't actually say that coz they were real perky and awake after that when we were having our spicy hot nasi lemak supper. So what gives Sun and Boo? Not enough sexy chicks maybe?

If Poppy was hot, RUSH was like a gathering of rowdy and unpolished people who came from the villages. Sounds too sarcastic and pompous? Well that's actually the nicest way I could put it!!! It must have been the absolutely most horrible club I have ever set foot in. Even the gay club in Central Market was better than this! First of all there was this really boring Miss Malaysia pageant going on that seems to last 4ever and ever. Heck I did not pay good money to sit for hours watching some silly girls parading around. Why did I not leave? Well I'm too cheapskate. I paid my cover charge so have to at least sit few hours to make it worth it. Hahaha. Everyone was practically shouting and begging for music...and nothing can be more pathetic than going to a club with no music. O, the memory of it pains me. Well at least I was slightly entertained by my companion for the night who gotten slightly tipsy and imagined that contestant No.3 was surely gonna follow him home that night. Wake up lar Jeff..u deserve No.7 instead lar. When the darn pageant finally ended and the music came on, there was more torture awaiting. The music was sooo crap and so yesterday that I realy couldn't take it any much longer and walked off. I had to save myself finally. Overall RUSH was a record - worst club and only club where I drank only one glass of alcohol. Hmmm...maybe I was just too sober to enjoy. Well nothing I would miss there...really NOTHING was good.

COP bemoans the death of good quality clubbing scenes...
