So if this documentary covers all the clubs that existed in the city during the 60's and 70's does it cover clubs that existed in other cities during the same timeline too? Up to what decade does this documentary cover up to? I guess this is the ultimate documentary on how the club scene and house music got started... Right?

These clubs will probably still receive the recognition they got back when they existed in the year 2020. They will still be renown as well. Unfortunately because I didn't live in the city at the time nor was old enough to go to clubs like Paradise Garage, Loft, Gallery, the Saint, or Funhouse I can't really comment on the experiences at these great clubs. I can only go by someone's account who partied there or by watching a documentary on these clubs. I never went to the Old SF, Palladium, Limelight,Tunnel or Vinyl either therefore I can't really comment on what went on in these clubs I can only imagine what went down in these places. Shelter is still around right? The only clubs which I enjoyed in NYC and could talk about were Twilo and SF (Webster's Hall and Ikon are an afterthought compared to these two). Which brings me back to the main topic at hand: this new club. I think we should give it a chance first before we start picking it apart. If this club doesn't do well or takes a while to get off the ground a lot of people will be comparing it to SF on 46th St and saying how much better it was back then!! I have no doubt that's what people will be saying. We can reminisce about SF until we're blue in the face, but nothing will ever bring it back!! Change is good and hopefully this club will live up to the hype it will create, but IMO it will take a long time for it to duplicate the success the SF's theme parties created!! We shall soon find out!!

The reason I ask is because the last time I went to Spirit was back on Halloween. I haven't posted here in a while and then all of sudden I heard on the radio the other day that Peter Rauhoffer is now the resident at Spirit. Then I heard many folks here say that JP's over the hill, some speculate that he got fired, some said he quit to work on some other productions of his, and some say he just needed time off. Could it of been he wasn't getting paid enough? I just want to know the real reason or reasons why he's no longer there? I know many will say to look at some previous posts or who cares because he's no longer there anymore, but I just like to hear from some of you all on this issue to formulate my own opinon on it. Any input would be much appreciated. Thanks

Mine is pretty close to being on the money!! Except for the fact the part that I need to prove myself to my mate.

Ideally most folks here would like to go out w/someone who's into the scene that enjoys the same type of music that you do as well as the same interests, but the reality is it rarely happens. When's the last time that someone here has had a meaningful relationship w/someone in the scene? Why do some girls here want to date people in the scene when the perception is that all guys at clubs are sleaze bags? Many female posters here have complained over and over that they can't stand a guy coming up to them at club, well then want do you want men to do? To leave you alone and never come up to you? Women aren't going to come up to men and ask them to dance. Most guys aren't going to dance by themselves all night and also many guys that go out and act shady aren't really into the scene to begin with anyways. Ladies, guys aren't going to stop coming up to you when you go out? It's going to keep happening, but you have the right to diss them or tell them to "beat it" if your not into them. If you really want to date someone in the scene I'd recommend to maintain a positive attitude in that you'll find someone that's like you eventually who's cool and a good person. From my experiences thus far I'd have to say that I've met some girls that have been cool and many shady, but you can say the same for guys too. Many people lie and others tell the truth, but if you really like the scene then you will either tolerate the people that are part of it or you can look elsewhere and see where that takes you. There's also a plethora of dating services via the internet as well. It's not my cup of tea, but some may try that. The bottom line is that the choice is yours.

This is very true. Sometimes you go to a club and see that it's packed and you say to yourself "man I'm going to hook up". Then you go inside and what happens is you don't. Then there are times where a club isn't that packed and it's a random night and it seems to the nakid eye to be an "offnight" and somehow you hook up. It's just the way it works. Your just NOT going to "hook up" everytime you go out. I say go out and enjoy the scene,music, and vibe then let the pieces fall where they may. I'd also recommend to dance your butt off if that what it takes to enjoy yourself!!

This is a great topic that's up for debate here!! First off I think that clubs and bars are the worst places to meet quality women. It took me awhile to figure this out because I enjoy the scene too much and didn't want to believe it at first. Now I do though. Most girls that go to clubs or bars are either: teases, gold diggers, junkies, or whores. Many are confused as well. A majority of these girls I find listen to hip hop. Now not all girls fall into these categories, but it seems like a majority do though. There are some girls that are into the scene and enjoy EDM and have respect for themselves, but the percentages are very low. I know women in the city have attitude, but it comes with the territory so it doesn't bother me. My approach when going out in the city is I go out w/my boys to a club to listen to a particular dj and enjoy the scene, vibe, along with the music. I don't prioritize looking for a quality person when I go out. Nor do I make it a priority to "hook up" either. If it happens it happens and if it doesn't I still enjoyed myself. It's really tough to hold a conversation w/someone at club when you can barely hear yourself think!! I've rarely seen people that have met at clubs turn into boyfriend and girlfriend and eventually have a meaningful relationship of many years. A friend of mine did, but it's usually not the norm. I'd like to meet someone in the scene who's cool and down to earth and enjoys dancing and EDM that I could introduce to my folks, but I'm realistic and know it's usually a long shot!! Most people at clubs are shady, both men and women. If you meet someone that you're really attracted to at a club and you want pursue something with them then I'd say go with your gut instinct before you decide to date that person. The bottom line is if your objective is to find a gf or bf then searching for one in a club is the absolute worst place to begin your search!! I'd recommend going elsewhere like say start at a church, university, gym, or try networking through your friends. Try new hobbies and activities as well. People usually go to clubs to let loose, dance, and listen to music NOT to look for gf's or future wives!!

That's a pretty good list so far, but I'd also recommend: 212 by Carolina Herrera, Echo by Davidoff, Dolce & Gabbana for Men, Jean Paul Gaultier le male cologne, and Isseymiyake. It all comes down to personal preference in the end.

You might be on to something?

I'm not in the mood to STFU... thank you very much!! I'm just trying to figure for myself why you're such a piece of work/fruit cake ? There's nothing wrong w/ that.

It sounds crystal clear to me. You like being an array of characters therefore you're in the land of "make believe". People who like to be different personalities all the time like yourself are schizo!!

Because where not in the land of "make believe" w/ you. Grow up Peter Pan!

GOT IT!! Just wondering why though? Because he can or just to FOCK w/ people?

I'm sure the people who post often know what you're about. I really didn't pay attention to your dramatic responses at all until now. Is it really a job or does it just satisfy your ego?

It's tough comparing classic house anthems on some of these cds to tracks that are on some of the newest compilations that aren't "ground breaking" so to speak. It's two totally different decades of dance music. The newest "Ministry of Sound" has some David Morales re-mixes on it that's why I was curious to know if this cd was worth buying based on the tracks?

This is exactly what I'm referring to. You want others to interpret what you say in a whole bunch of different ways. I guess you like to mess w/ others?

It sounded like it from all the sexual references made. Anways why has this post gone past the point of no return?

How about the "Ministry of Sound" cd? Or other new cds out?

A couple of weeks ago I went to an FYE store and wanted to buy the newest "Ministry of Sound" cd. I wanted to listen to the whole thing,but FYE doesn't have a reliable listening system where you can listen to the entire cd like say Tower Records. You only can listen to a snippet of the entire track. So I wanted to know if this cd is any good? I know most of you burn the newest tracks/re-mixes onto a cd but I'm wondering if there is cd out there right now that is very similar to JP's style or includes the latest tracks he's playing right now? Also has anyone bought the last cd from the last Halloween party at SF? I've heard it's called "Sanctuary" and is it any good?

Can you find this cd at your local FYE, Tower Records, or Strawberries? Why is this cd NOT that good? How many tracks are there?

I haven't been to Spirit since the Halloween party so I may just have to come down. I'm waiting for a friend to get back to me. Can someone get an accurate price check on those tix? I know JP has tweaked his style just a bit so therefore I'm now looking towards hearing his sets. Does anyone now if a Halloween cd came out at SF's last party? The last time JP played at SF was at a Halloween party. I remember one of camera guys filming the party said there was another cd/dvd compilation coming out soon, that why I ask.

Def gotta love the CP drama!! Drama always seems to be lurking around the corner here on these boards. I smell a case of fatal attraction here. Life's too short to hold a jealous grudge on someone. Leave the phantom of the opera alone because there are plenty of fish in the sea.
