Here are some things from a MONTREAL-ER. As a general rule, I agree with whoever said that our afterhours scene sucks. But we live with what we have. In fact I know people who are willing to drive 4 hours just to get here to party. Out of the two clubs, the bigger, and more widely known is Sona. BUT, and this is a big BUT, they recently changed promotional teams and are not doing as well as a result. I used to go there EVERY weekend last summer. It was cool. It's a good place if you want to hear house that you're going to hear everywhere else, and it's good if you're at all homophobic. That brings me to Stereo. The more respected and mature of the two. Stereo is in the Gay village and DOES NOT tolerate homophobes. If you point or start to pick fights, I guarantee you you will be out within minutes. Go there if you want amazing music and people who respect it. Lots of gays and trannies there, but they're amazing, wicked people. Another thing I should mention...if you are a guy and you want to pick up, go to SONA...the people at Stereo are not into that. And whoever said it's sleazy, you don't know how wrong you are...that room is for people who want to do that...it's known if you're familiar with the club.
