If anyone wants to go to any bars that aren't Taboo Cove here's my recommendations. You may find me at any of these watering holes throughout the weekend (on Thursday night for sure and other nights only if I can tear myself away from the bands at the Gold Coast), but you won't find me at Taboo Cove.

(warning: current existance of these bars unknown)

Sky Lounge at the polo towers (swanky old-style lounge with great views):
