i totally agree...very small...boring crowd and not close to full at 11pm on a Sat nite the 1 time i went a couple of months ago...
-
and Felix at Ice that friday too
-
expanding Circus doesn't help matters - its all in the bookings. when is the last time someone complained about Circus being full and couldn't get in?
Vanguard has big $ behind it and great booking contacts there with Pasqual....
Avalon is still going strong...and if/when Crobar opens up next year on Hollywood Blvd as is planned, it will make it all that much harder.
-
lets just say i've been clubbing a LONG time and have a good knack for getting in quickly. i do have some good connections and a friend of mine that lives there is a big partier and friends with a lot of VIP hosts as well. life's too short to deal with waiting in line.
-
i think the longest we waited on Memorial Day weekend was 20 minutes and that was at Vivid of all places
at Pure on a friday we got in after 15 minutes (did a walk by first at 10pm and didn't even bother)....also didn't wait at all for Mix and Ice for the Tiesto/DD night...
i should clarify - i don't mean to say there weren't huge amounts of people trying to get in at the same time...there was.
-
Mood's music is that hip hop/rock blend you hear out a lot right now. Wed is def the best nite but its really though to get through the door on that nite. venue isn't too big. think Ivar but smaller for the crowd and music.
-
to the uninformed...lasvegas.com has entered into an agreement with vegas.com - for a reported $12 million lease fee - vegas.com is going to run it now with a similar look/feel though it will be a bit different. $12 million isn't bad for a domain name!
regarding the deal at Ice...seems like you may save a couple of $ but its nothing special...if you don't drink a lot its not worth it.

i was actually a bit disappointed in his set - left around 215....for me he's been very hit or miss for the past 2 years or so...
-
One club doesnt make a city. Avalon is one of the only venues in LA where you can hear electronica. Every other club is hip hop. And Ive got two other words for you "Bloods" and "Crips".
On a plus for LA clubs, Shaquille O'Neil was denied entry into a club two years ago because he and his 11 man "posse" all showed up in tshirts, jeans, and sneakers. Somewhere Kobe Bryant was laughing his ass of.
actually - that was at Light in the Bellagio where Shaq...and other athletes have been turned away for sneakers, etc.
and you really don't see any gangbangers at the clubs either....though there is waaaay too much hiphop played out.
-
yep - Moonshadows started their sunday afternoon party a couple of weeks back. some friends went recently and said it was packed - though that was the beautiful sunday we had earlier in april...
the Bud Brothers are residents with special guests...
there is also a thursday nite party there as well....
-
while i'm not a big fan of Circus...i can't think of one good reason an employee would do that.
obviously we hear stories about people getting their drinks spiked with GHB or roofies, etc. seems like you made it home okay...when i've seen people OD on GHB (unfortunately), they pass out at the club and are taken away via ambulance there. it seems strange that you were drugged, partied the rest of the night away, and made it home.
-
the party is cancelled at Nocturnal - they are trying to move it elsewhere...though at this last second i have no idea what venue could host it that is not already booked.
-
Cole is the doorguy
well really David Cole but everyone just calls him Cole...
so now you know!
-
I'll be heading to lights out first, then over to space for morillos morning session.. so i have a quick question. Will tickets be any less when I arrive at 5-6am to enter space? Should I pre-purchase to avoid a line? Not sure what the best course of action is... any suggestions would be great
tickets won't be any cheaper and possibly more...
they are touting doorprices of $50, but it was $60 last year....and the presale tix only guarantee entry until 5am i think...having said that, last year i walked right in at 630am the night that Tiesto was in the main room and Morillo was supposed to play the terrace after Crobar (was Sander instead).
-
best dance club in LA IMO....some Hollywood posers, but they don't bother me at all (Weyes!!!)
-
he played at Godskitchen at the Henry Fonda theater.
i'm a HUGE Morillo fan, and its the first time i wasn't real impressed with his set. first 2 hours were pretty boring, only picked up in the last hour.
i don't have the new album yet but don't remember hearing the song w/P Diddy that's being played nowadays.....
overall disappointed...but i'll see him in Miami most likely at the WMC
-
u just missed him! he played a couple of weeks ago...probably won't be back anytime soon...
-
all SoBe clubs have to ordinarilly close at 5am. the clubs in Miami proper (Space, Envy, Nocturnal) have 24 hour liquor licenses - given primarily to help development in that area. In Florida, each city/county can make their own rules as to when alcohol is sold. In 2001 and 2002, Miami Beach allowed the clubs to stay open until 7am on friday and saturday nites. However, last year they did not allow for the extension. I have no idea this year if the clubs will close at 5 or 7am in Miami Beach - i imagine soon enough you can figure it out based on the hours posted on the party lists for the weekend.
-
the party starts around 11am or so...starts getting really busy around 2-3pm...i'd recommend going early in the day and leaving at dinner time...early during the day is when they broadcast live on BBC1 and have all of the big DJs spinning....and the 2 times i have been there was no real wait to get inside...
-
i don't believe they've sold out of Space passes before so i wouldn't worry too much...
-
i've heard that Circus has been remodeled a bit - i'll be curious to see what it looks like now.
remember even before Spundae moved to Henry Fonda...it was far from full in 2004 except for the nights they pull the top trance DJs. i don't expect that to change.....
realistically it comes down to your music preference...if you want Ferry/Armin, CL, etc., you'll be at Circus with the kiddies...
if you like house, prog, etc., you'll be at Avalon....
the 1 big difference is Avalon gets a lot of people that go there b/c they have fun there on a Sat nite, regardless of the DJ.
NOBODY goes to Circus for that reason - they only go for the DJs...
or to sit in an Asian E-Lake
look at the DJs upcoming at Avalon:
Hybrid
Sasha
Roger Sanchez
Steve Lawler
Laurent Garnier (until VISA problems forced his cancellation)
upcoming Spundae DJs:
CL, G&D, DJ Vibe (now that's a good booking!), DJ Dan, Charles Feelgood, D:Fuse, Armin...
i'll go where i like the DJs.....not based on the club.
-
i can actually walk to Park La Brea....its a huge complex - largest west of the Mississippi....great location IMO.
you could look in the Sunset Blvd. area in WeHo....yeah you MAY be able to walk to more stuff, but the traffic can be really bad on the weekend nights...and i really don't think the difference is that much...i love being 5 minutes east of Bev Hills, 5 minutes SE of WeHo and 5 minutes south of Hollywood
-
VG! My Boy!
Loews is nice but in South Beach you need that SoBe Flava - not that corporate hotel stuff
best hotels IMO in SoBe:
Ritz Carlton, Nash, Tides, Delano, Shore Club, Bentley, Sagamore...
and if you don't mind a short taxi ride away...the Four Seasons and the Orient Mandarin
-
well i just found out the gig is sold out so at least it will be crowded
monster massive... who's in?
in Los Angeles

sancib - they go to 4am at the Sports Arena for all their 'rave' parties...
regardless - i'll be seeing Erick Morillo at Avalon
