My friend and I wanted to check out the nightlife in DC, but our only night to go out was a Monday. A friend suggested the area of Dupont Circle, but said that since we were going out on a Monday, we should try the Adams Morgan area. We did and the area as a whole was pretty dead by the time we made it out around midnight. We really wanted to go out dancing, but weren't left many options. The most happening place looked to be, Madame's Organ. If I'd had any other option, I would've left immediately.
My thoughts on Madame's Organ: The place is dimly lit and looks like it should be condemned. The stairs are rickety. Three odd levels. Floor one: main bar, restaurant seating, and stage. Floor two: pool table, dangerous balcony, dance floor, and DJ booth. Not sure if you can call that small of a space a dance floor. The DJ wasn't very good and only a few, drunk people were dancing intermittently. The DJ was annoyed with my song suggestions (Pitbull and JLo) which were major improvements on what she was playing. She through a fit when I suggested the song, "Cheerleader." Apparently she prefers to not have an audience. The music was way too loud, the bartender couldn't hear my friend's drink order. The drinks were watered down. The 3rd floor had a weird rooftop bar and subpar/dirty bathrooms. A soul band played on the first floor and was pretty good. Left disappointed in the lack of dancing.
I'm planning to head back to DC and try out the nightlife again; hopefully at Dupont Circle next time.
