| How old can you be and still fit in to the club scene? Posted: 5/12/2008 9:52:02 PM | I am in my mid 20s and I'm wondering how much longer I'll be able to enjoy the club scene for. It's kind of sad to think that eventually I'll be too old to fit in and dance with all the beautiful women there. I love doing that so much, and I want to do it even more now that its starting to get nice outside up here in MN.
But anyways, what's the cut off point for the age of someone to go clubbing? Does it make a difference whether you are a man or woman? | |

| How old can you be and still fit in to the club scene? Posted: 5/12/2008 10:05:54 PM | Short answer: 10 - 15 years. Long answer: depends on the club & depends on you. Different clubs serve a different clientele and you will naturally migrate as you get older, if you wish to continue clubbing comfortably. &, as long as you stay in good shape and have a good attitude, you can keep going for as long as you want. If you find a wife or other permanent partner who likes to club too, you could go for decades... the young hotties won't mind flirting with you if they know you've got a ride home. But if you stay single.. yeah 10-15 years & you'll be feeling pretty damn old and wanting to settle down. | |

I know many older folk who go to clubs for the music, dancing etc not caring who is around them or what they think (they are there for their own entertainment).
If your question relates to 'too old to pick up women in a club' then that depends on the club i guess.. many clubs have a patronage of younger men and women (and those who are there to find a guy/girl are usually after their own age bracket) Saying that, there are many clubs around that have a vast age range attending, so i guess for that reason you would need to pick the right club (eg.. you don't want to suffer the rejection one could expect from a younger crowd focused club)
If it is for the enjoyment, the music, the scene and not primarily for the women, then take some encouragement from a guy called George who is 64 years old and attends many major raves in sydney.. that guy loves his hard trance and techno and can usually out dance me, and i can see him doing it for a long time yet. | |

Posted: 5/12/2008 10:14:36 PM | pazoozoo i couldnt have said it better lol. your right it does sound like hes kidding. especially someone so young worrying about this its too funny i dont know if u know OP but even seniors go clubbing.and yes it all depends on which club u go to.u can go to any clubs if u want but depending on your age u might either feel like u fit in or dont.as i saw from your profile your in the age range where u can go to any popular dance clubs evrywhere where most 20 year olds and 30 year olds hang. it also depends how old a person are,how they look for theyre age and if they dress the part and if it works for them. for example if your a 40 year old man and u want to go to a dance club where mostly 20 year olds hang out u better make sure that u wont stand out too much by at least dressing in top fashionable clothes similar to what young men wear and stuff.u also need to look young for your age if u want to hang out in places like that all the time otherwise you will just be the laughing stock of the place.all the young girls will say 'hey heres pops again trying to score with the young hotties ' . some men when they are 40 or 50 really have an old guy look and if they go in places like that will just stand out too much.lol but personally tough if u ask my opinion i say go where u want to go and who cares what people think.but if your a single man and your 50 and in a dance club full off young hotties dont expect that u have a chance.i mean common why would a girl pick a old fart when shes got tones of young college jocks to choose from. if your an old 50 something guy and want to pick up a women i say go to a club with people your age group dont waist your time with the kids place. | |

| How old can you be and still fit in to the club scene? Posted: 5/12/2008 10:40:37 PM | Thank God your here Spumoni. The 20's and 30's just don't realize that good lovin becomes great lovin with age. When you are young it is all hurry hurry and all about yourselve. With age you realize that time is your friend and satisfying your partner is the most satisfying part. Hang in there young-uns. You will learn with age and definately become much better.  | |

| How old can you be and still fit in to the club scene? Posted: 5/12/2008 11:13:58 PM | There is a guy here in his 60's with white hair and the whole "grandpa" image. I see him all the time and greet him, and every time i see him he's with this girl ATLEAST 30yrs younger than him. He "grinds" and stuff like the rest of the younger crew, I guess you can keep clubbin as long as you feel comfortable still doing it like this guy  | |

Oh just as long as you have money, you'll have the beautiful women there. Women love older men and money. | |

| How old can you be and still fit in to the club scene? Posted: 5/13/2008 8:14:07 AM | This is interesting because I felt that way aged 20!
I guess its good to remember that life is short, and that one moves on in time, but this occurs naturally and you will lose interest in good time as new interests take the place of old ones..
One thing you will find as you get older is that younger men will resent the fact that the young women seem to find you more attractive than the young men for your maturity..
I 45 and still go round clubs and my dancing put most young uns in the shade!
Practice makes perfect my good fellow, but you will get other interests and as I used to go clubbing 6 nights a week when around 35 or so, now I only go about once a month!
you wont feel too old for a long time, the clubs vary in their clientele and there is something there for everyone of all ages..
Just enjoy while you still enjoy it!! | |

You'll find that as time goes by, the club scene gets a little old. That's why you'll gravitate to the bar scene. Less dancing, more talking. Less chance of strained groin muscles and broken hips. | |

| How old can you be and still fit in to the club scene? Posted: 5/13/2008 9:43:10 AM | As far as "fitting in " it depends on the club. If we're talking about a dance club where most of the women are 19 and 20, you're already "old". But, if you don't care then good for you.
Better to go with someone at least. You might look a bit creepy if you're one day in your 30's in a club of early 20's standing around staring while you sip your drink ...
And you might hear the odd " grow up ! " from sweet young gals as they walk by you. | |

Yes, it's quite a sobering realization when you suddenly notice one night that your once favourite club/bar has been infaltrated by youngsters. I mean , I didn't get old, they just got really young. Right? | |

| How old can you be and still fit in to the club scene? Posted: 5/13/2008 9:56:28 AM | Yeah ^^^^^ it's like " hey ! how'd that happen ? "
I actually had that comment thrown my way when I decided to hang out with some younger blokes. I thought " aw, what a sweetie .... KARMA is a bee-atch " | |

| How old can you be and still fit in to the club scene? Posted: 5/13/2008 10:02:38 AM | I don't believe in a "cut off age." I'm 30 and I still go clubbing with girls who are ten to twelve years older than me. At one point, my eldest clubbing buddy was 72 years old. And she ROCKED!
I think that it's the PERSPECTIVE of clubbing that needs to change as you get older. If you're in your late 20's to early 40's and still acting and dressing like you are in your early 20's, then it gets silly. If you are reaching middle age and still go there with the "get drunk, try to pick up a guy/girl" mentality (and I'm not saying that's the mentality of you in particular, or everyone in the club, but let's face it, in your early 20's a lot of people--myself included--are or were there for that very reason), and are hitting on people half your age, then it gets REALLY silly. But I don't find anything wrong with still going, having a drink or two and dancing with friends. And sometimes chatting or dancing with a cool guy or girl who isn't trying to take you home at the end of the night.
But most of the time now, when I'm not dancing, I just sit back and watch the antics on the dance floor. It's like watching a bad "National Geographic" special.
So go clubbing for as long as you want to do it. It does get harder as you get older, but you should never let anyone determine when you are "too old" to do something.

I would say when you are over 60 and reach the age where the DMV takes your license away from you and you can't get to the clubs anymore. That would be a good time to stop. Haha exactly! As long as you like to dance, have a few drinks, have fun with your friends and love people watching, why would you ever stop?
Sure the type of club you enjoy might change, but there are clubs/bars for all types of people all ages...so basically if you want to go, there will always be a place to go TO. | |

| How old can you be and still fit in to the club scene? Posted: 5/13/2008 10:42:59 AM | I LOVE the clubs & I am 37. I get hit on by all age ranges. However, the best part for me is the music and the dancing . I go to clubs on college hill, and they are a blast! I think as long as you can afford the cover, noone will turn you away, and as long as your having fun going then GO! I dont go to pick up men, or to get drunk, I go for ME to have fun, to feel good! It is so much more fun (to me) than sitting in a bar, staring at the bartender!~
