    Hey Marco, aren't you taking a risk by inviting other Djs??? Dude, seriously...PMS is the shit as it is...sometimes, when you invite Djs, they kick off too strong and kill the build up factor...that is something you should consider discussing with your guest Djs before they take on the decks.

    I felt J. Anthony came in a little strong for the needs...don't get me wrong, I though his set was amazing...maybe, too strong to open up the night, that's all.

    I guess we'll see what happens on Friday, right?

    get funk out! :cool:

    Funketeer......

    You are working hard for your free drinks huh?:laugh: :laugh:

    Remember you invite this Friday. And if you don't show up, I'll call your girl, Carla?, the one from last week. She had a good time and I'm sure she would come with me:love: :biggrin:

    Happiest of birthdays to Louis and Biz! I am more than thankful to be able to say that I WILL be in attendence. Maybe not a la V.I.P. style like some of you, but definately out on the floor with my people sweating up a storm, eventhough we'll be shoulder-to-shoulder.

    Same way as quest4sunrise, can't fit in any Vip...

    Happy birthday Louis, thank you for bringing us quality music week after week.:clap::bday::clap:

    Biz, I'll be there for Anthony Pappa. Happy birthday to you too in advance.:hat:

  4. Didn't make it to Space last Saturday, as much as I like Tom Stephan. :( Way to drunk Friday, way to tired after Tyler/J Tripp and Timo....

    Saw him the prior time he came to Space. Liked it a lot, but still preferred his Warming Up or his Essential Mix.:clap:

    See, there's plenty of options. When people say Miami is a trance town, I laugh. Trance has it's place, but there's so much more out there.

    Yeah Pod, there is plenty of house in Miami. There is almost no trance, but that is the route electronic music has taken.

    Didn't they close the Friday nights at Space with Edgar V? There are less tranceheads and many more houseaddicts......:duel:

    Or.........., maybe we will start to see a new wave of free talent at clubs everywhere, and lets say, have at the same time a fulltime job in the PR department of some multinational liquor company:laugh: :laugh:

    It really sucks for the post-chemical generation DJs. But at least they can keep up with their love for music.

    Koky.........You are right with what you wrote. This shouldn't happen. Don't want to break your balls but, Jews describes a religion, not a race. Italian describes a nationality not a race or religion. And Argentinian is that little guy we all have inside us aka as ego:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Leaving the joke aside, get clear the concepts of race, religion and nationality because there is enough conflict between races, religions and nations, to combine them now.

    Peace and love,

  11. Funk..... Loved the night as well. Chris and Mono are an authentic duo. Two hints thou:

    1) Pay for your drinks, you drunk bastard.

    2) You just write without reading the board????:confused: Duh,Duh, DuUUUUUUUUUUUhhhhh!!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    ......It was nice to see ya again. And Corinto. And Marco. And, what was the name/phone of your girl?????:laugh: :laugh:

    ........Anyway I got hooked up with FREE tickets to Timo Maas at crobar, so I couldn’t pass that up. WOW!!! I don’t think I left the dance floor the entire time I was there. But I couldn’t get drunk. I don’t know if it was the dancing or if the drinks my friends bought me were all watered down, but I was stone cold sober when we walked out to check out John Kelly at level.

    DID YOU TIP YOUR BARTENDERS??????:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    In Europe they don't, but this is the capital of LatinAmerica!!!:D

    I strongly suggest you to come and see with your own eyes what this duo is about. No big expenditures, just straight and honest quality underground house.

    Starting mid-November we will bring talent from outside Miami. Talent that has been interested in what we have been doing in the past seven months. And are excited to be reassured of the solidification of this new duo of DJs.

    If you haven't checked them out yet, there is always next Friday to do so. I can assure you the quality music you will hear and the vibe you will find at Lola on Fridays will make you come back.

    Thanks again to the few CPers that showed up last Friday. Phat Music Sessions is for all of you.

    MD

    Marco.......... Chris and Mono rocked. :punch: They are my favs, and happy to see their careers take off. the 4/4 they did enhances their duo strengths.:clap2: Sick tech-house

    Liked Joseph Anthony, more the end than the beginning.

    Gotta go back to work!!!!

    Interesting thread.......

    You can take it both ways, however - I agree with Tony..and I sympathize with Demo...

    We have been doing diverse nights on Sobe for 3 years - not always with international talent, but always slightly away from the norm. You gotta understand as a promoter if 500 are on the list - expect 50 - even more so when you are offering something as diverse as Tripwire.

    I think you were also unfortunate with your timing. timo maas, John Kelly - Tall Paul the night b4 - Big football game.....

    Miami is a tourist town, and the stark reality is the majority of tourists (and even locals in some cases) have heard of Crobar, Level & Space - because of international acclaim. as far as the DJ's go Timo Maas, John Kelly, Tall Paul - again international commercial acclaim...

    That said I am not disprespecting djs Like Tripwire, but when you take into consideration the masses - not the muso's - you will probably find you get blank stares when you mention "underground" dj's names.

    CP is a small community of musicaly minded people.... the majority of Miami isn't.

    Miami is a tiny area surrounded by swamp - London, LA, Chicago and NYC aren't.

    I have said a million times put DJ XYZ here and it would bomb - put him in NYC and you have the roof off.

    Respect to you for trying something different - there aren't many of us who do. But don't get bitter at the results... Gotta face the Reality of what Miami is, and make the most of it...........

    Have to recognize the courage you guys have to bring new talent to the table. And to educate all of us who can only learn so much and so fast.

    As purpleindigo tells you, 10% of who you think is in the bag actually shows up.

    It comes I guess to economics and marketing. You guys did what you were supposed to do: flyers, guestlist, posters...

    Guess what. There are only so many out there that will go out on a given Friday or Saturday. And they go where: Crobar, Level, Space.

    Now, this places bring big talent that is direct competition with your event. They have bigger budgets, bigger name DJs recognizable by the masses, places that get packed by 70% of people who don't even know who is playing that night. That leaves you with a dilemma. Why become a promoter on a weekend when it is going to be almost impossible to succeed?

    My suggestion, become a promoter on a night when you can get the atention of 100% of the music lovers. Those who will end up at the three bigger clubs on a weekend. Bring the talent on a Tuesday, Wedenesday or Thursday.

    For example, Big DJ Little Club at Lola is doing this every other Thursday. I'm not sure of what is going on at Level on Thursdays, but we all know Space is closed and Crobar has hip-hop (just to break my b@lls they will send The SHow to Lola on the 24th of OCt. cause MTV rented Crobar and will have Roger Sanchez there).

    But going back to my point, you have week nights that have better chances of attracting more people. Your own night would be certainly stronger on a Tuesday, or Wednesday. I'm sure Stryke's night at Red would also be stronger on a weekday, because whenever any of us wants to go out during the week there is no quality night, with almost any exception.

    In conclusion: It is tuff to market a product if there is less demand. Study your night, look for a night that has a potential, and keep the promoting. Even though there are less people that go out during the week, there is almost no competition.

    There are few exceptions to this rule, and they happen to be at the same club, Lola. Aquabooty covers a musical niche without almost any competition, good work Joe Budious. Fridays for Phat Music Sessions has two great DJs who have gained their following in the true underground (outside Clubs, = warehouses). I saw them once in a warehouse party and waited for a month to receive an e-mail of the next party. And it ended being a residency at Lola. Good work Marco Davalos.

    I'm a fan of Lola for this reason. Not because of trendy girls or because of a hook-up at the door or bar. I pay my $5 to get in and have two or three beers. With $20 I'm done. Big DJ Little Club does the same for me for an extra $2 only.

    It's a point of view to consider. "I'll rather be the head of a mouse than the tail of a Lion". And as a promoter you can't built what the club owners haven't done for you..........

    Cheers,

    Vip
