The Most Underrated Club in Montreal

picture by club zone

The third floor at the Sky Complex must be the most underrated club in Montreal. I do recall when the Sky was the place of choice when going out on Friday night, but somehow after the super expensive renovations occurred people started to go out somewhere else (Parking - we are talking years ago).

Then a while ago I start going out again on Friday night to Parking, which was supposed to be "the" place to go out, just to find out Parking on Friday night was no longer the place to be. Even the cover charge was dropped in order to attract "the" clientele - not even mentioning the top quality DJs - probably Parking should start thinking in allowing women on Friday as well, which I think is an overdue issue. Saturday night is the strong gay night at Parking, along with the Unity club, which cater to a younger crowd compared to Parking.

If neither Parking or Unity are the ones with "the" crowd on Friday night, have you checked the Sky? The crowd is like a mix of Unity and Parking, and obviously the second floor is always packed, but the third floor is what caught my attention.

Eddy Jasmin, a former Stereo resident, is in charge of the X-STATIC Friday's, and it had been a while since I heard this guy spinning. If you had the chance to see Eddy at Stereo (haven't seen at Circus yet), so imagine a night like that but with today's music, this is how I felt last night. Although the music was good, most of the crowd was hanging out on the second floor, and this is why I say the third floor at the Sky complex is the most underrated club in Montreal today.

Great sound system, good light show, high ceilings and a good dj, I think it deserve more people on the dance floor.
