Irish lives: For Dubliner Joseph Quinn, today is all about last-minute arrangements as he prepares to launch the latest addition to the capital’s social scene.
There are DJs to call, sound systems to check and rooms to be dressed for his first nightclub event tonight: the opening of Flux in the Temple Bar Music Centre, Dublin.
What Quinn doesn’t have to worry about are licensing regulations or trouble posed by punters who have been drinking all night. Flux is the newest alcohol and drug-free nightclub in the capital, a sober Saturday night oasis in the middle of beer-soaked Temple Bar.
The security personnel on the door of the club are “happy bouncers” more concerned with welcoming the 100 or so clubbers – most of whom have pre-booked to attend – than keeping an eye out for alcohol-related ructions.
