Club Reports: Rare Martini, Nana Funks (Birmingham)

In Birmingham, Alabama to visit a friend and checking out some clubs on a Saturday night.  Began the search at The Rare Martini in the Lakeview Entertainment District.

DJ Angoti was in the booth spinning mostly Top 40 videos.

This was as crowded as the dance floor would get during my visit.  Learned that Birmingham is a bar town but not much of a club town.  A nearby Irish bar and the local branch of Tin Roof, both with live bands, were packed.

Sarah in the venue's Bar No. 3 clued-me in on the local scene.  Thank you!

Alabama takes all the fun out of clubbing.

Nana Funks was next door and as a private club, they could stay open until 6AM!

Birmingham's DJ Matrix was in the booth spinning 80's, 90's and Hip Hop.

This was the crowd at midnight but I was told that after 2AM, when everything else has to close, this place gets packed!

Interesting place.

But I'm happy to return to O-Town.
