Try Snafu. They are doing some live music now, as well as having a chilled out early lounge bar.

Tokyoblu are playing on Friday Nov 11th.

Went upstairs at O'Neils for the first time last night and it was the best night I've had in months. Great music (my compliments to the DJ, i was dancing for 2 hours solid) and an interesting bunch of people, some old, some young but all having a good time.
Was a bit concerned with the dancing on the tables, especially as the girls were in sky scraper heels and I was kinda underneath them.

Is it normally free to get in? Also, what kind of music is played on a saturday night? Does it change each evening?

costs money at weekend (3 or 4 quid) and the music is much the same as midweek. I think of the musical policy as a more mainstream exodus/mudd. It makes for a good substitute if you to exo late and can't be arsed queuing anyway.

Don't worry Wetherspoons will soon stamp out places like the Prince of Wales. Soon there will only be 9 choices in the world:

Wetherspoons
McDonalds
Microsoft
Toyota
Stewart Milne
Carling

Try erm... The Globe, Archies (it's super cheap and you can actually get a seat), Snafu, Kilau, Tunnels Club nights and erm... Wild Boar... it's wonderful - You don't have to nag for a twist of Lemon in a vodka coke and it's nice measures

Can't believe no-ones mentioned the Howff yet. Wee downstairs place next to Bruce Millers

Some of the best food in aberdeen, excellent background music (think Alice in Chains was on last time I was there), massive screen for football, lovely decor, friendly staff - with one girl who was stunning, not sure if she works there any more though.

And Tilted Wig is a close second, with very similar reasons as the Howff

Don't forget Starbucks - won't be long now till we have a wonderful homogenized world where everywhere is the same wherever you go.

Mither Tap not a bit of hike, or is it's name geographically incorrect.
