Max Show
About a decade ago Max Show was one the better New Russian kind of night clubs in Minsk with expensive entrance, casino, a wealthy public and lots of Mercedes parked outside. Now a days its more like Russian discos was like in the 90's, it is simple, in need for renovation and the bar may run out of beer in the middle of the night. The good thing is that it is a whole lot cheaper these days. Lower prices are however needed as there no New Russian kind of visitors any-more, no Mercedes outside and definitively no casino any-more. Still it is a nice place to go to, especially for those that wants a 90's deja vu.
