Dance eighties goth nights with no Monday cover in Hillcrest

Tucked onto University Avenue in Hillcrest, EQ runs on electronic music, laser lights, and a rotating cast of established and emerging DJs. The signature draw is Blue Monday, a weekly eighties goth night that carries no cover charge, joined once a month by the darker, dressed-up Sabbat. Drum and Bass Tuesdays skip the door fee too. The room reads clean and well ventilated, the staff stay professional, and the crowd keeps things unpretentious and welcoming. Entry is limited to guests twenty-one and over, with a valid ID at the door. Regulars flag two honest quirks, the bathrooms run small, and water means a walk to the bar. Doors hold late, from noon until 2 AM Monday through Saturday, and 11:30 PM on Sunday.
