Encouraging this fuckstick would probably not be the best idea.
That being said, there are tons of songs with drinks in their name* that would probably work as a smartass answer. The only problem being, obviously, that this drunk fuck would have not gotten the joke, since he obviously could not differentiate between a DJ booth and a bar, even after having that difference pointed out to him repeatedly.

These are just off the top of my head....you get the idea. Another smartass answer to this guy could have also come from Mr. Thorogood. After all, you could have told him, sorry, but "I Drink Alone."
A post for another time (and I think another place since I wasn't actually present for this one... or for the RPG attack on the Seabourne Ship for that matter)
Clothing optional bar? As in a bar where it's optional for the PATRONS to wear clothing? Oooh boy that must've been interesting.
Yep. Yep. And yep.
It was a very amusing year of my life. And it's still there. I used to hang out there (in every sense) a lot more, lately I still go up there, but only occasionally.
Basically is the third floor of a three-bar complex, and is an open-air roof deck. It is clothing optional for staff and patrons, with the exception (due to the health code) that bartenders DO have to wear something on their bottom half when they are behind the bar, though it doesn't have to be much. Security always wears clothes while on duty, though many of them have been known to do otherwise when they were off-duty and up there relaxing. I myself often DJ'd in sandals and a hat...JUST sandals and a hat. I'm not shy.
It's a really cool place. It's called the Garden of Eden, and it's in Key West, Florida. Google it. Amazing place. Though just like any other bar, it can get boring if the wrong people are in there, and it can be dead, and it can be lively, and it can be insane, in both good and bad ways. I still remember Labor Day 2000, before I ever worked there, when the dance floor was absolutely packed, and not one person on it was wearing more than a hat. It's a damn shame stuff like that doesn't happen more often.
It's definitely not for everyone....we often saw people come up the stairs, look around, realize what it was....and turn right around and go back down the stairs rather quickly. But for those of us that don't mind being around naked people, or being naked around other people, it is pretty damn cool.
I so miss the clothing optional pier with the bar and the pool that we had here for years. I hate tan lines, and now I don't have that place to go to when I am hungover and want to read, drink beer, lay out, and look at naked women. *sigh*
