A ritzy club without the pompousness
I normally hate celebrity themed parties. There ends up being far too much focus on whoever is going to show up instead of focusing on making the event fun and cool. Plus, once the celebrity gets there, they usually will seclude themselves away in some small room so they aren't really partying with the general public.
Club Aja's Miss March party was different. It was a great time. Not because of the celebrities who showed up (they still kind of secluded themselves away, but behind throngs of people who wouldn't let me take a photo) but because the party had a good vibe and energy to it. Club Aja is definitely making it up my list of high-class places that I'd like to hang out at on my off-time.
Anyone that knows me, knows that I have a hatred for the ritzier clubs. The people and the concepts of discerning bouncers irk me
To me, Club Aja is the high-class Channelside equivalent of Czar. The friendly staff is there to help everyone out and the clientèle are look and act nice. It's always a great thing to be able to got to a nightclub and feel instantly relaxed. Aja has got that and, the way I see it, they're on there way to be coming one of the bigger, hotter nightspots in Tampa Bay and they're doing it with the right attitude.
If you haven't checked out Aja yet, you can live vicariously through our galleries! It's like you were there except that the photos don't move or speak.

I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.
