Afterwork "Happy Hour" at the Club

Since I commute from the " burbs" to my downtown work location, I have to consider which clubs are open in the early evening when I get my car from the commuter train station.
I've noticed that some clubs do not open until 7 or 8 PM and those that are open from lunch through out the wee hours of the a.m. tend to be in a "dead zone," from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. A few of us guys prefer these hours for winding down, having a few beers and some lappers, before heading home. There seems to be a few clubs in my area which will instill "2-song breaks" between dancers on stage because the day shift and night shift have this lull.
I don't know how this effects you guys; it makes me want to seek out a livelier venue. Yea, it is usually No Cover before the night shift; but wouldn't it be better to offer dances as 2 for 1's, reduced drink prices, VIP, etc, as an inducement to get a better crowd in there during "Happy Hour ?"
Some of us "aging gentlemen" do not like to hang around the clubs during the bewitching hours, when the young Turks begin to assert themselves. What say you?

I dislike the low-level attention afforded customers during this period who may have $$$, time and interest in getting to know the dancers. Make it worth my while. Give me a reason to stay or a better reason to return. That's all I'm saying.
