gt banana

i've found my new home in China. this was the second week in a row we've gone to GT banana, but its seriously some of the most outrageous fun i've had since we've been here. idk, i guess i'm a big fan of total extravagance. :)

here's a brief description of the place:
all the bartenders are good looking and they juggle sparklers behind the bar. we ordered a drink that is 200RMB ($33) but its 10 glasses with alcohol poured all around them. then they set off the sparklers that line the bar and juggle the sparklers behind that. they then light ten colorful shots on fire and dump them in the glasses, which lights up the alcohol poured around the glasses. i screamed because i thought i was going to catch on fire, and almost fell out of my chair. but it was amazing.

but the most absurd thing about the whole place is the dance floor. it moves. its on hydraulics and bounces up and down to the beat. every so often they release bubbles and fog into the air above it, set off more sparklers, or turn the lights up really brightly and then off again. oh, and sometimes strippers/dancers/singers come out of the ceiling on platforms that hang above the floor. its seriously nuts in there, the whole time. everything is super posh and super sparkely (probably why i love it, i'm a sucker for glittery). anyway, i'm also obsessed with the song that was playing the first time we stepped on the dance floor and discovered that it really did move with the beat. its called 'sunshine in the rain' by BWO (and the singer is actually quite good looking). the second time we went, it was playing while they set our drinks on fire.
