What is the difference between a Pub and a Disco?

Answer 1

A pub is a "public house", which focuses on drink and, usually nowadays, food. It may occasionally have live music and will often have a juke box, but rarely have a dance floor. It will always be reasonably lit and the music should low enough to allow conversation, except near the band when they have live misc.

A disco focusses on dancing, and serves drinks bur nut usually much food. The lights will generally be down, apart from strobe and effects lights. The music will be recorded, usually with a DJ, and loud enough that conversation is difficult except in quiet areas.

Answer 2

is professional. In a Karaoke bar, the entertainment is amateur.

================================================================================

Karaoke bars' "main feature" is a karaoke machine. Nightclubs generally have a bar, dance floor and a DJ booth. The music in nightclubs are either live bands or, more commonly, a mix of songs played by a DJ.

Answer 3

Discotheque was the french word used during the 1970's to describe a club where music (discs) were played and that people danced. There isn't a difference really.
