You've just described nightlife in Hamilton to a tee! Well, save for the "lurid" cars, perhaps.
I've always loathed Hess Village. On warm weekends it's filled with frat boy types and general losers whose only purpose is to get drunk and fight. There may be one or two bars/pubs in the Village that aren't filled with hefty heifers in jean skirts of the sort you see in these photos, but I don't know where they are, and I don't care.
If you have even the slightest inkling toward non-mainstream revelry or alcoholic imbibing then you need to give the Village a miss and head on over to Augusta. Specifically, the Winking Judge. I think the Judge is the only place in Hamilton (Ontario? Canada? the world?) without television sets blaring all the time. You can actually walk in by yourself, have a drink, and get into wide-ranging conversations with regulars about everything from the Napoleonic wars to the finer points of beer-making. It's that unique.
Oh, I also quite miss the Raven, which was on John and Augusta. That place was atmospheric up the wazoo. The Underground, its successor, doesn't hold a candle to it.
