Bored, I scout around a nightclub (5)
I believe the answer is:
disco
'a nightclub' is the definition.
(a disco is a club for dancing)
'bored i scout around' is the wordplay.
'around' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'DISCO' can be found hidden inside 'bored i scout'.
(Other definitions for disco that I've seen before include "Place to dance to recorded music, in short" , "Music genre - dance venue" , "1970s' musical genre" , "Nightclub with recorded music, in short" , "Type of music" .)
