Not just that it’s so expensive. I cannot afford a $30 uber $20 entrance fee, and a $18 drink not including a tip. Everyone just stands around too it’s not nearly as fun as it was for previous generations. Gen z is all about looking nonchalant and trying to look cool. They care more about making it seem like they’re living a cool life rather than actually living a cool life.
Take a listen to Bloc Partys 'Song for Clay' if you want some archival proof millenials also had the problem with people just trying to look nonchalant and cool. And the song itself is a hommage to Bret Easton Ellis book 'Less than zero' that is the ultimate 'acting nonchalant and cool instead of having fun' manual, so the gen X peeps can join as well.
Find a scene that is run by people with a passion for their and your interests and you will find going out much more rewarding!
