No, not really, no need to lock.

I'm probably going to open a bar/night club in a few years and I'm always trying to think of a good name for the bar and drink specials. So far I have

Bar Name: The Breeder Reactor (its an engineering thing)
Specialty Drink: Tom's Piss - Whisky, Boone's fuzzy navel and Sprite
Drink Specials: Wheelbarrel Night - bring a friend in a wheelbarrel and beer is $1, shots are $2

suggestions, ideas?

tom's piss sounds absolutely disgusting in my opinion - i can't stand boone's, but that's just me:) i like wheelbarrow night alot, but it depends on what kind of clientle u want in your bar - something like wheelbarrow night will attract college students much more than business and the like.

other suggestions - hospitality night - $2 anything - believe me, i've seen this many times, a great money maker!:)

Wheelbarrel night, while good in theory, could be a problem. Where are you going to put them all? You can't leave em outside, cause they're expensive, and someone would surly take the wrong one home.

Just make it crazy enough that some people would do it for the cheap drinks. Lipstick night, for example, guys with lipstick on get their first 3 beers for a dollar or something.

Thanks for the suggestion, but its not that kind of bar.

Yes, Tom's Piss exists. Its an original recipe of mine. It gets its name from the look (yea, you know what fuzzy navel and whisky would look like mixed). Its actually good, and the ladies like it.

[edit] Wheelbarrels might be a bad idea, but its definetly going for the college crowd.
Maybe instead Old Rusty Bucket Night - bring in a bucket, any size, and I'll fill it with draft for $10[edit]

<< Thanks for the suggestion, but its not that kind of bar. >>

Wasn't suggesting it was, your request for ideas reminded me of one of the bars we used to frequent in college where they had Kareoke drag night. It was a bit strange, to say the least.

Your not from Austin are you MrBond? I've never been to big a fan of Karoake, but the customer is almost always right.

I'd find one if it meant that I could get it filled for 10 bucks.

Screw kegs at that point.

Hell I'll have my own bucket custom milled, it'd pay itself off after a few weeks :)

The secret to a succesful nightclub is crazy ideas.

The crazier the idea, the better.

You hire male bartenders because they know what they are doing.

You hire female bartenders for obvious reasons despite them not knowing what they're doing.

Any good nightclub is built on the backs of busboys and barbacks. You need a lot of busboys and barbacks.

Nope, I'm from Ohio. I'm not a big fan of karoake either. We went to the bar that night cause they had really good burgers and we were hungry. We got there saw what was going on, got our food, ate and left.
