DOHA's NIGHT LIFE...How is it for you?

It will be cool if Buddha bar opens in Doha.

It will be cool if Buddha bar opens in Doha.

i just stay home and watch x rated movies

but merwab is good in a way and i am not saying this because i have a bottle there lol

well basically they are a waste of time and money .its better to watch a movie or stay at home .

All is fair in love and war....????

we got loads of that already, right Vegas?

i can teach experiance...........

and get a six-pack for a weekend chug...lol

You can't teach experience...

go to their bath section.plugging again...

Gone are those days when I (and some close friends) frequent COFFEE SHOPS & BARS. I still (window)shop once in a while...but I now prefer to stay indoors...

"Cocooning"is what i do now.or if im thrilled to spend hard earned riyals,,i go directly to m&s,,to buy their cookies and grapefruit juice...im plugging,,hehehe.

and I seldom go out now unless it's with a close friend. Lately, i only go out if THE SIGNIFICANT OTHER wants us to go out for dinner and/or movie.

I'm no good in planning on going to an event nowadays coz something always comes up on the eve or at the day of the event...shucks :-(

I guess I have had enough of DOHA???

and a few more days, it'll be a year old...someone must be bored enough to dig this one up...hehehehe

Share it with us - where do u lot hang out at night? Wheres your fav hot spot? Where do u get down and Jiggy with it? Yippee, Yippeee, its GORDONS gin for me!

Hi Luvvies! Had a spot of dinner last night at Mrs Miggins Pie Shoppe ( check it out in QL Restraunts - British ) followed by a boozy evening at Club Erotica in Olde Rayyan - Brenda was on her usual form flashing her plumpies and doing unmentionable things with a King Cobra! Corrrrrrrrrrrr! Yippee, Yippeee, its GORDONS gin for me!

who else is going to see him?

was a band before in doha club,it think its 7 or 8 years ago and thats the only night life i had with doha with my qatar airways ground crew friends, never been anywhere after that, it's now jungle zone, mcdonalds, party kids for me.

azilana as in analiza like harpo for oprah .....

expect nothing, do more, love lots, smile often, cry sometimes but continue living....

as much as i want to enjoy the "nightlife"here in doha,would rather stay home and "cocoon",or surf the net,blog or do laundry.

going out nowadays is soooo taxing and tiring,and to get out means spending....

Friendz i think its d climate and the transport problem which doesnot allow us to enjoy in doha! Other than thad doha is safe and happening!

Everything comes to him two waits

The pitcher goes so often to the well that it is broken at last.

i think that night life is improving but still alot of work need to be done.....comparing to Dubais night life

"What the superior man seeks is in himself; what the small man seeks is in others."

Well I ended up going to the Qube Sunday night. Its more of a convience thing for me, free cover, cheap drinks, 3 km from where I stay, always see people I know and I know what to expect when I go there.

No worries...I'm sure everyone will be excited to see you...the FIL-EXPAT GROUP will also be here to welcome you...

Just holler when you land ;-P

I'll be there first week of next month pa, i think, not certain, always subject to change.

sooo...is anyone doing anything tomorrow night? Currently my only night to go out.

Forgiveness is life...:)

Let's see...when you touching down DOHA?

If you want, I could give you my music files.

i just download them...

I have over 40 gigs of regaeton, some run 20 minute mixes and I have the new wisin y yandell music "the best."

the faster the rythmn, THE BETTER :-P

It really moves, sort of salsa, but 120% better.

I think I got one invite next weeekend and hope this one won't cancelled...

MUSIC??? Depends on my mood, actually.

Nowadays, it's JAZZ and THE BLUES. In the office, it's more of the FEEL GOOD/LOVE SONG MUSIC. Gym time would be POP/RAP/R&B.

You were looking forward to this trip to as I recall. There is always next time buddy. I enjoy reading non-fiction books that I could use. The last fiction book I read was about interview with the vampire--that was a long time ago. However, my wife made me read "The Little Prince" a little bit a couple of months ago. Do you listen to music all the time though? I'm kinda addicted to music myself, I have over 90 gigs of music on my external hard drive.

I'm more for the MEDICAL / MURDER CRIME / MYSTERY / HORROR...The likes of MICHAEL PALMER,ROBERT LUDLUM, STEPHEN KING...

though I still do read the romance novels by DANIELE STEELE, SANDRA BROWN NORA ROBERTS

It's only 6:41 AM (Qatar time) here and I forgot to swtich off my alarm clock last night after DARUDE informed me that the DHOW FISHING TRIP was CANCELLED due to HIGH TIDE / STRONG WINDS...

So what kinds of books do you fashion if I may ask?

How's your morning so far azi? Do you like sitting down at coffee shops with a good book?

I have at least 10 books by my bedside to be read.

LIB is right, after visiting all nooks and corners of what DOHA has to offer, it became monotonous and you seek something else...like dune trips, fishing, hiking (if there is one), snorkeling or diving.

hummer_H3 is also right, it really depends if you got the MOOLAH to spend...otherwise, stay indoors :-P

Obviously I am a long staying guest in Doha (since 1995). From my experience I can say that things happen only in private settings. Try to get invited to parties, join groups going to the beaches to stay overnight, become a member of any of the social (theater or music) groups. Don't waste your money in the Doha Sheraton on the Mezzanine floor!

If you can manage to be accepted by 5 to 10 different people it will be hard for you to choose where to go tonight. Oh, yeah, what can you contribute?

I ahve been here for months on end and have not left a single place unvisited...I have graced every nook and corner,every bar and coffee joint and have still not figured why I go to these places...Doha is good for solitary souls on the look out for some peace to say the least.All the places look same to me. Some of the 'live bands' are good but most of them are horrible...And the women who are waiting to be 'picked' add to the already miserable ambience...Wherever I go I see some or the other girl/woo-men looking at me enquisitively as if trying to look for signal and make some quick bucks...I don't like the feeling but I love my beer...So here I am doing the drill...I have started picking up a book nowadays and try finding a lonely quite corner and read the life out of the book in hand :)

Life is Beautiful...Indeed!

well put..

I have two things to say

1. If you have money you will enjoy night life in qatar or elsewere

2. If you don't have money you'll not enjoy...

simple as that

Because i came here to make a living & same money..

i'd suggest to look for the cheapest night life here..

which is for me..

..

SEA LINE.. CAMPING..

..

or just stay home & Game Online..

since there are limited things you could do here in Qatar, most of the people go to coffee shops/bars with their friends to unwind/relax or whats not.

believe it or not...Darude is doing a very well job in the QLSG for making our weekends something to look forward to....especially for folks like me who's alone (but not lonely/sad)here because of work or for those families are not here...

I actually have been to cloudnyn once and I like it very much. I like the fact that it is open till 3am. Thanks for the info

I would have to say it really sucks. When Im up at night, you guys are all just about to go to work. No fare, and when you guys are all going out, I'ts just about the right time I sleep.

on a Monday night as they have something going on there.

It's in the 2nd floor of MERWEB Hotel, entrance is the coffee beanery...

is so one tonight...i think I'll be there ;-P

and flanostu is right, jug up some before you go...coz it'll take you ages to get a drink from the bar...lol

before you go to Qube make sure you're p!ssed first.

Since I am only just around the corner and haven't been to Ramada Plaza yet, it this Hed Kandi gig still the place to check out tomorrow?

My problem right now is that my only off day is Monday, so Sunday is the only night that I can go out. At least I dont really know what I am missing cause I havent been out any other night. As my schedule changes, it will allow me a little more flexability.

I have too much to do. I have to leave the country just to go to sleep.

NightLife..hey dont forget to invite me aight...

There are a few bars and places that u can go & spend time and these places u can count on ur fingure tips..

spending 3 yrs 3 months++++++ with this kind of night life venus realy sucks lady.

[img_assist|nid=60386|title=.|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=|height=0]

I am starting a job in Doha on July 1st, flying overon my own from the UK. I would be grateful if anyone could give me any advice on making friends etc...

hi,

if u want housemaied pls call...6825193

LOL Azilana!! Not into the nightlife, so can't answer your question, but I cracked up when I read your post! I thought I was the only one who counted like that!!! LOL.... 8 years, 8 months, 3 days, but even I DON'T count the hours and minutes! How long is your sentence?!

(Now that I think about it, the night life back then would have been - Ramada, Sheraton, Marriott, Oasis)

Cheers!

Azzi there's a big difference in Doha right now and Doha back then. Specially since 2000. Before that, there was only Oasis club, Sheraton, Falcon club, people didnt party much, just hang out in sports clubs. But now, theres alot going on in the city, last night I was reading the Qatar Happening magazine and I was like wow, there's soo much to do this month. The problem with people here is, they just go to the same place over and over and then they say there's nothing much to do in Qatar. Plus its not even the place that is a problem, its the people, see the thing is, if u have the right kind of people, u will have fun even in the desert or at home aswell.

"There's good in everyone, sometimes people just get diverted to the wrong path"

I too wanna attend the function just PM me once u have booked it...

Depends who you are with....Just have to think out of the box and not too literally.

I think it's getting better all the time

I don't work for QUBE...

Kindly book my seat too for the Head Kandi.....I would like to attend the same too.....

those menfolk who tries to pick up any women...phuleezz

That's why I stay clear of the clear on Thursdays and Fridays, unless there's an EVENT (like this one)...

If u need a VIP table booking, PM fast as they will be gone very soon and it will be standing only.

I THINK people should try Qube for Hed Kandi, it will show that something very special can be done at Qube and that they are trying improve the place, BIG TIME.

Lets face it, it the best venue by a mile, although, we all know what people think, this is a chance to change that.

And to the people that don't come because its qube then i would just call that ignorance and say, well to bad for you because your going to miss an AMAZING night out!!

I take my hat off to the people that will give it a try, we are launching Hed Kandi, it IS the worlds leading party brand with over 60 CD's released world wide, a saturday night residency in El Divinio Ibiza, Pacha london etc, Hed Kandi do over 2000 events per year in the best clubs around the world.

Its an amazing concept in an amazing venue, its up to everyone to make the best of it!!

MAKE IT A QLSG GATHERING!!!!

oh i wanna go for that hedkandi too..

visited that site too...

I was thinking of reserving a table or two (or three) at the VIP area (2nd level) if some QL'er would be brave enough to try QUBE on a FRIDAY night...

Doha's nightlife has changed tooo much since 3 years ago.. At least there is something half decent at least once a month...

If u want to see something different - Join us at the launch of Hed Kandi - www.hedkandi.com - Live at Qube on june 13th...

DJs, Live Percussion, Lady Victoria on Saxophone!!

Full Hed Kandi Decoration, extra sound, extra light etc... It will be a great show, the vip is almost sold out via table bookings!!

As for me...I'm thinking of re-thinking my options as I am hating the thought already that Doha would still be my home for the next 2-3 years...

But while I'm here...I intend to make the most of it...

azi.. now thats somethin.. u have ur boarding pass & plane tickets..

I still remember the time the plane touched down Doha airport runway, the long hours I had to wait for the druver to finally show up and bring me to my accommodation...I still even have my boarding pass, plane ticket ;-P

juicy...

azzy,even though i'va already been here for 3 weeks now had not had the chance to hang out...in the meantime i'm looking forward to join a group, meet new people and start "living at night" in doha....best regards

I think the nightlife sucks.. and the places arent that great too.. but u have to be happy with wat you have.. i havent tried all the places yet.. maybe in sometime i surely will..

Azi.. you actually calculated the time you have been here???? to the accuracy of seconds???
