I've heard him spin twice when he was spinning at disco and he is so so in my book... he will consistantly play tight tracks that gets me moving, then mixes in fillers that remind me of jp on bad nights that sound like pots and pans. This dj never took me on a journey. More like 2 bus stops... anyone else???

afterhours is like a big sign for the cops that says... "yes, we have drugs inside" not a good investment for business IMO

I think Howells grows on pple. I didnt really like howells until the 3rd time i heard him live. What I am saying is that in my case, his funky house music sound grew on me. I think his musical knowledge blows away most other dj's out there.

I tend to disagree. As a club goer that has been clubbing on and off for a while now, (started early 90's w/limelight, paladium...) there is clearly a reason why good music starts at later time. Clubs like Crobar is in the business of making money. I and probably a lot of people on this board make up a VERY SMALL PERECENTAGE of pple that go to these big venues. We represent dare i say less than 30% of all pple that walk through Crobar. Our agenda is to go to the club and take the musical journey along with the dj. And I know that is ruined in a place like Crobar at times because of the make up of the crowd. Crowd plays a BIG factor in me having a great night out. I used to love going out to vinyl/arc until the last yr it was open due to the crowd becoming really sucky(no musical knowledge). Come to think of it, it must have changed the time that SF closed down for a while and they had no where eles to go and started ruining Danny's parties. hah ha no offense to any regular jp(<-- crazy hit or miss dj. sometimes awesome, sometimes pots and pans) fan. But everybody likes to party, and most of the people that go there go without the knowledge of who the DJ is that night. I personally think dressing up to go to a club is fine. I dress up when entertaining friends that arent really in the scen and is just looking to party once in a while. Human race, like any other race is about attracting the opposite sex(usually). Good looking people want to show off their good looks and dress up and see other good looking people. Whats wrong with trying to look good? Clubland is def one of those places where people want to hook up and sometimes escape reality. Whether its through music, dancing, drugs, pple watching, whatever. My main point is that Crobar is a nice venue for its PURPOSE. Music for the masses. We represent a very small portion of people that attend the bigger clubs. Goto smaller joints like cielo, sully, le souk, loft parties and you will see the majority of the patrons are there for the music. Damn this was long. my 2 cents

crobar is a nice superclub that is usually bringing in the best talent(house) these days. Sound system is by far the worst due to high ceilings. Twilo, vinyl and other clubs like shelter had/have these low ceilings that 1) create the intimate vibes and 2)sounds so much better due to sound bouncing off ceilings and walls imo. Discotheque has a nice layout but i like to be surrounded by normal people with normal jobs when i party. whenever you have 30% or more of the club doing , you have a good party. Its hard to get that at Crobar unless its someone like PvD. boy do i miss vinyl

drags always tell the best stories... y is that?

even though I am not getting satellite... this lineup would steer me away from gettin sirius.... don't they have any new and up coming dj's?

invest money on a invisible suit i think wal-mart has them at a sale thru next week for like $5.99

so we can call ktu the beat of new jersey then

hey old timer.. the girl in that sig is bending over... so the foreshortening makes it seem like she has a super small waist.... still nice to look at tho... off topic.. who still listens to denny tsettos? threadjacked yet aGAIN

omg... great post!~!@~

i predict that within 5-10 yrs all major dj's worldwide will use cds instead of vinyl. theres sooo many pluses and very lil negatives(maybe u feel like cheating cus its easier with cd?) with using cd vs vinyl. people should learn to adapt and change and grow musically, and everything else in life. im an artist that studied art in college and did everything traditionally until like the third year when i started fooling around with some paint programs. now, almost all of the the artwork i create professionally is on the computer. its through technological changes that makes us better artists whether in art or music... VINYLS, CD'S ARE JUST TOOLS that the artist has at his disposal to create art, music, whatever... just dont hate on cd's, youll just end up being a sucka that got left behind.. haha no offense

i agree 100% its only a matter of time after you'v been in the club scene, you realize that its the same thing over and over again with the same peeps. I choose special events to go out these days...

That was one party not to be missed. got in around midnight with a couple of friends and stayed till 4ish. Music was relentless, making you dance. havent danced that long in awhile. humphries definately should get a spot other than thursdays. i myself is asian and for once i totally agree with silverbull about certain asian elements that ruin the experience for me. first some are like in their mid40s, totally obvious that they are on something and act like no one is watching. well, i watch, and get disgusted by the way they act. i will go far as to say that it is the chinese and not the japanese pple that piss me off by their behaviors. one, you get these real low life losers that just walk around the club trying to hump anything that moves. than you get the lets get together all 5 of us and do the group fucked up swaying shit. they ruined many experiences for me at arc and now is starting to irritate me in disco. i am not saying that all or even most chinese people ruin my experience at the clubs, but the ones that did all happen to be chinese and i have other chinese friends that get upset by this behavior too. again tho... had a blast yesterday night.. good times indeed.

i had a blast that night. i guess it all depends on who you were with. me and a cple of friends were by the front booth from 4-5. music was just my style at that time. other times it was so so. too many watchers over there and not enough dancers. although i like crobar, i dont think it is a real nyc type of club. its more like a bigass lounge. i agree with many pple on board here about the pple that go there. I am old school that is used to vinyl, limelight, paladium, tunnel, twilo, and such so...
