Instant Club Review: QXT's

[serinde]

We've paid a lot more to have a far worse time at many a New York club. The main floor is Electro-Techno Dance Whatever, which I don't have much stake in, but I'm content to dance to it so that's okay. The basement, which contains the goth room, did not open until about an hour after it was supposed to (someone who works at a club was late? No!) but when it did, it was exactly what we were looking for. Also: good cooling systems. On the main floor it was starting to get a bit overmatched by 1:30 or so, but how could it not, really?

Downside: it is in Uckblech, Newark and there's no parking, so you have to park on the street. Not that I perceive anyone wanting to break into our car, but there's always that worry in the back of my head.

There was a small adventure getting home, as the ramp back onto 280 was closed, and the detour signs led you into the middle of nowhere and then vanished. Oh Newark, you so wacky. But by that point in the night, we all found it hilarious rather than tiresome, annoying, or scary.

We shall be returning! Probably often.

How close is the club to a Newark subway/light-rail stop? Maybe you could park somewhere "safer" and transit? (Assuming transit runs late enough to get home!)

It's actually pretty close to Newark Penn, though further than I'd want to walk in dancin' shoes (of course, by the end of the night, walking a block to where we'd parked was further than I wanted). Maybe a half mile or thereabouts? Of course, I don't know if there's any parking there, either.

I don't know precisely where the Newark City Subway runs, but I don't think it's nearby.
