If you're under 21 in New York City, you may feel like you can't take part in all the city has to offer. Luckily, there are ways to ease the pain. From DIY venues to nightclubs with 18+ nights, you too can party 'til the break of dawn (or at least into the a.m. hours).
115 Macdougal St., cafewha.com
One of the original Greenwich Village hang-outs, Cafe Wha? is a must visit. Luckily, you don't have to be 21 on weeknights! On Monday through Thursday, you just need to meet a $20 minimum (food and non-alcoholic beverages are served) and you can enjoy live music in one of the city's most storied music halls. Bob Dylan used to play and hang out here (perhaps even some of his very first shows) and so did Jimi Hendrix, Bruce Springsteen, Woody Allen and Lenny Bruce.

Despite new clubs and venues popping up and planned for the Strip, EBC still breaks year-to-year records as the dominant luxury dayclub and added 25 percent more staff this season and 10 percent more seating. Surrender placed fourth on the Top 100 revenue rankings of Nightclub and Bars 2014 list.

When I finally speak with Andy C hes busy running through the soundcheck for a six-hour set in one of Londons biggest nightclubs.

Youll be hard pressed to go to a festival where Andy C isnt performing this year. The drum and bass pioneer is set to appear at up to 40 of them, both at home and abroad.
In London youll be able to catch him at Claphams South West Four Weekender and at We Are FSTVL, Upminster, just a stones throw from where the acclaimed DJ went to one of his first illegal raves from his home in Hornchurch.
It takes me a few attempts to get through but thats understandable given the bassy licks undoubtedly being blasted out at the other end.
Its the second time the internationally acclaimed DJ has performed the marathon gig, which stands as testament to his passion and dedication to the drum and bass music he helped pioneer.
When we eventually talk there isnt a hint of nerves in his voice which carries an Essex twang that gives away his proud Hornchurch roots despite the prospect of performing to a sell out crowd of close to 2,000 people ahead of him.
But then for Andy C, who has been on stage in front of vast numbers both stateside and in Ibiza, this is small fry. The primary concern is to pace the nights drinks vodka namely, any way you like it.
