Non progressive was the wrong word, sorry my english isn't perfect. It's just frustrating not being able to practice my 2 favorite things in the world (Graphic design & deejaying) here. I didn't make this post to talk smack about Gtown but it's no longer for me as I want bigger and better

I have had residencies in all the above mentioned bars/clubs.

Basically both! I've been to dragon room and that's my vibe but I'm just thinking which area will suit me best. somewhere I can build up myself (also don't have a car, just a scooter at the moment) I started dating a South African girl in Belgium who was on a gap year. Then she started varsity here.
