groovefire Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 GLO Promotions has chosen to reformat Pravda’s Friday nights to top 40, hip hop and commercial vocal house. While we respect their decision, we simply cannot, in good conscience, play such music, and are therefore stepping down from our post. Friday, January 17th will be Groovefire DJs Todd Hanna and Phil Jakob's final regular appearance.Our seven month residency at Pravda has been great. Pravda remains, in my opinion, Boston’s best club, and we are forever thankful to have been a part of it. As much fun as it always was for us, we nonetheless tried to be unselfish with the gig, inviting many great local DJs to spin with us, including:Matt E. LoveJoe MamaTaner & TastyAndrew NewcombeMike KnyteRandy DeshaisesEde ArmandMike HoskaIt was a pleasure playing records with all of you guys, and we hope to rip it up together again soon.We want to thank everyone who contributed to the nights, GLO, Pravda, its staff (especially Todd M., Dan, Steve, Christina and Jen), all of our promoters, the Boston Globe, the Improper Bostonian, Clubvibes, our friends, family and faithful supporters. Other than our New York City monthly at Chateau, we’re gonna stray from the residency thing for awhile, focus on production, and just do some area guestspots from time to time. We’re also wholly re-launching our website soon. We’ll keep you all posted as things arise.House music WILL overcome…someday. Until then, we may struggle a bit, but we do so happily. So, please come party at Pravda with us one last time, Friday, January 17th (one week from this Friday). Thanks and peace,The Groovefire Crew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prplhz Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 Todd,I know I only checked you out at Pravda once, but you guys where kick ass! I think Pravda is making a huge mistake, but I respect you guys for sticking with your convictions. Good luck in all your endevours.Also, are you guys still doing the Home Sunday's at Metropolis? if not how come?Also, I am considering coming out for your final night. I have a friend coming in from NYC that night so it is purely up to her. Hope to see you there though!Good luck guys, and hope to see you soon.JM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyis4meatheads Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 I'll be there on the 17th. I'm really looking forward to it, as is my roomate. This news is really disappointing, but such is life I guess. It'll be fun to hear you guys out at different clubs around Boston, keep us posted on any gigs you have in the future (as I'm sure you will). This time, there's a two martini limit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groovefire Posted January 8 Author Report Share Posted January 8 Thanks guys, it would great to party with y'all at Pravda again on the 17th. Hope you can make it.HOME Sundays is going into hiatus for the time being. Metropolis has been very supportive, but the reality is these have been the worst two months of club attendance in the worst year of club attendance in a very long time. Those who made it out to the night will attest that the HOME concept is really, really dope, and will unquestionably thrive when the timing is right. Truth be told, I’m glad to step away from these residencies for now. We have a million ideas, and never the time to work on them. Plus, I’d like to attend some shows rather than always working them. The D:Fuse night at Metropolis reminded me how much I missed getting f’d up and dancing. This will be a much needed break. Thanks for all of the support guys, really.

whadupg Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 Todd- I'm so sad that you guys aren't going to have a local residency - I had so much fun partying with you guys & hope you get back spinning in Boston regularly - you guys play great, quality dance music & I can't believe that Pravda/Glo is going to be playing such dogshit now. Their and our loss. And nyis don't be such a wuss - you were way too much fun last time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nyis4meatheads Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 Originally posted by groovefire Oh, forget it ny, excessive drinking is MANDATORY on this night! All right... you guys asked for it... but don't say I didn't warn ya Here's a quick flash-back from last time... as we're walking out, my rooamte is talking to some girl. You know the drill, it's the end of the night, the lights pop on, time to get a number or two. So, things are going ok, he's got his phone out, he's trying (key word: trying) to put her number in is phone, and I grab him by the arm and say, "Dude, don't worry about it, she's not even hot.", just loud enough for everyone to hear. (Funny thing is, she actually was cute (if not hot)). He resists, but I keep grabbing him away... apparently a friend of her's was doing the same thing, and we dragged them in different directions, never to see each other again. Ok, he tells the story better than me, but you get the idea.And to prove karma's a bitch, he cock-blocked me REALLY bad this past Saturday. I look forward to providing drunken entertainment for the lot of you next Friday. I expect the same from yourselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groovefire Posted January 8 Author Report Share Posted January 8 I can't wait for ny to get ripped again. I saw him standing right in the middle of Boylston Street afterwards, all alone, cars honking. It's was great!By the way you guys, ironically, the Improper Bostonian magazine ran a small article and picture of us in its 'Club News' section this month. Check it out. We look very handsome.

Nice.. hopefully I was doing my pattented 'Try to hail regular cars you damn well know aren't taxis because you think it's funny' move. That's my favorite thing to do at 2am on Boylston Street... seriously.Are you as handsome in the Improper Bostonian as I was charming at Pravda that night?

It's ok, it was actually funny how it all happened, and in the end, the cock-block ended up working out in my favor. Now, where'd I put that number???

prplhz Posted January 9 Report Share Posted January 9 Originally posted by kaydup Yeah but if you wernt straight would she be hot? No, she really wasn't that cute at all. I think he was sporting some major martini goggles.If I was into girls and all, I would be into the tall skinny hotties, she was a little short and didn't have that cute of a face. Just my opinion though, everyone is entitled to be attracted to whomever they want to be attracted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
