Read Greg's thread.....I won't post on this further, onto a more positive future for CJ

Very eloquently put. And I can only apologize for anything I took too personally and became defensive about. At the end of the day I am sure everyone here wants this community on CJ to be strong and thrive. Sorry I will be missing that set, hope you have a good holiday Greg.

Better in this case would be a return to fresh Editorial about Fashion, culture, happenings *not just clubs, Music, etc in Miami. Organized CJ Meetups. Perks for members again not just clubs. Updates of all the listings and info. Some of the venues listed on here arent even open anymore. More info will come soon. If you have any suggestions please give them.... they can only help.

Your words...you are flip flopping a bit

No I said Diego was brought into CJ and I was going to CP and DaVe would be posting to explain somethings. And I was filling you in because you were posting somethings without all the info so instead of you regurgitating gossip I would rather you know fact. Guess that backfired. As far as I know you said you were retired and didn't want to be in the club business anymore, so then why would anyone think you would come back into it in any capacity? You call it being defensive and protective however you are trampling on the people that are trying to make CJ better. And in a way you are protecting those who actually helped bring on its demise. I think it is interesting that on another post on wrote, "In reality, very few people actually take me seriously so the consulting thing is out of the question. Besides, I don't have the patience for it anymore." Like Heidi Klum says "Either you are in or you are out" so which is it? Cause you talk like you want to be in this.....and that is completely fine. Just come out with it already.

Dade I always love ya....even when I think you are wrong. Why wouldn't I? All this doesn't effect that. Should it? And baby you know me I have no problem saying it to your face. Lately I have been planning a wedding but you knew that. And don't bring up how many years you have been on CJ cause I was a member way before you. And have participated in the Miami scene on and offline for years. I was surprised to hear Nick jumped ship for something else. So does that mean he should never be replaced? He sold CJ to track and then left. So now someone who you still have no personal relationship with but is a great promoter is coming in and trying to make this place better. I am very surprised at the anger you have. You want to point out problems but volunteer no solutions. I think that is completely pointless and just a tad dramaful. I too have taken positions, offerred opinions and learned from people here. So again what is your point? And as Dave pointed out Diego and Isabel are both at CJ as is Jipsy. Both ladies have been there for sometime. Isabel in fact interacts with the club sales. Diego doesn't so all your conflict of interest conspiracy theories are a bit off. There is so much more to this site than Email blasts and webbanners. If you really cared why don't you help instead of just being so damn negative. Look I will TOTALLY put it out there. The biggest reason I am even involved with any of this is because I was one of the original ClubNYC and CJ members. And yes for a long time the boards and connections on sites to the communities have become weak. I was offered the opportunity to try to bring back something I love. Has nothing to do with who owns it. I have a lot of great memories meeting both CP & CJ people. Just trying to bring some of that back. Really wish you would be more helpful.

Would have avoided it but then this all would have been one sided

WOW now we are gonna go if you are gonna lie Dade.....you didn't a ask simple questions. I told you that Diego has been busy getting settled into CJ and that after the Hawtin event he would introduce himself to the people that don't already know him. Like you. You proceeded to say you knew for a month he has been there....even though it hasn't been a month...and heard bad things about him. To which I told you that you don't even know him so I wouldn't believe everything you hear. If anyone is being sarcastic and rude it is you. I am surprised to read your concern for POD. Because again as you said he should have been gone a while ago. So by your suggestion ....way before the holidays would have been better. And if you know DaVe he is one of the most genuine, kind, amazingly generous people in world. Your "partner in crime" comment is you desperately trying to make this an us and them scenario. You couldn't actually give a shit about CJ with commentary like that. This site and others will move on to make positive changes and service their online communities better. If you want to help and be a part of that then you are going about it in a very strange way. Oh and I have known you, DaVe and Diego for years now. I think you are all awesome guys so I hope we can end this back and forth bs soon so all of us can work together on making positive changes.

I honestly don't know about what happened with musicalmissionary. But besides being a promoter, Diego is a web designer, DJ, producer, and a great connection to the scene in Miami. He a native to the area and his tastes expand way outside DJ stuff into fashion and art. And I think you are being paranoid no one is slinging anything at you. Take a deep breathe.

Wow getting you going is easy....and I always talk shit about Andrew and to his face as well....this has been going on a decade already.....so nothing new there. Lee I never said anything about so yea there is a bit of misinformation from you as well..... And why would anyone think the comments you made have anything to do with loyalty to LP? Just cause you worked there. I would like to think you didn't drink the Koolade and You totally are bringing that up and Pod. I didn't want to say specifically who you made that comment about. Like you I have my own opinions regardless of people who procure my services. There is an opportunity to restore a lot of CJ's value to the people that come here. Just like there will be for CP. Embrace the opportunity and change. Because the past is gone and buried. And no one is berating you love...for godsake are you taking this all personally? I hope not. Sorry TALK shit not START shit.....you are right but usually when you talk shit...shit starts You are the only one whining hunny move past it....this is gonna be fun

Omg Dade you are so full of shit....is this what you meant on the phone that you only come to CJ now to gossip and start shit cause you are bored? I mean do you even go out anymore? Why the hell are you slamming people you don't even know? You retired.....miss it do you? And let's not start on bias because some people that used to work for CP and I will quote you "would only go to and cover certain people's events and it was about time they were gone." You really don't know how the Hawtin event came about because that aint it. And so what if it was. By the way LOVE YA glad everything is getting better MUAH!

More events should be 18+ for this music....so these kids stop listening to f**king britney spears and TI.....god help us all

Just got an email from his label resale for the Hammerstein Show Feb 1. Go to TM and enter code word "revolution" Just got 2 floor tickets total 96 bucks after all the fees.

One of the most genuine and sweet men I have ever known. His amazing positivity and kind heart will be missed. He embodied everything that was good about Dance Music. R.I.P Mel we love ya

What if CP gave us the green light do a small event in January and see how it goes? Would you guys be down? I think it would be an interesting experiment.

What do you guys think of a couple parties for CP Members like we used to have? Open bar...free admission....some open decks nights?

It is a Pioneer Launch party by invite before doors open to the public

Paul will not be spinning anywhere after CP and none of these events are affiliated with him or his Central Park Performances.

That is not the afterparty and has no affiliation with PvD or the Central Park Event.

Ok all I can say is Sasha OWNED yesterday. Between him and Astro & Glyde they had the Queen of Hearts rocking all up and down the Hudson & East rivers. It was one of the best times I have had in a while. Ran into so many people I hadnt seen in forever. Brandie, Mark Pappas, Ian from Tranceaddict, Rebecca Sin, of course Sasha with Steve & Shari Coe (how much do we LOVE these two), Catherine Carter, Mike Schwab, Tony Deangelis, Swamy (You threw a bad ass party babe), Elan, Lance Jordan, Rosko and so many others! Everyone that came in costume I have to give to you guys you went balls out with it. The Parrot guy alone was amazing! I will post video links later what a great way to spend a sunday! And Involved raised over $1000. for Unicef

Thank you for that......she was such a positive light. I remember all of us checking in on the boards that day making sure friends were ok. When DaVe had to lock her account it was a very hard moment. Back then were all so much tighter. R.I.P. our BlueAngel
