housegrrl Posted October 16 Report Share Posted October 16 If u like ravers than u should go on the 27th. Um, ain't nutin wrong wit ravers, it's all the freakin 40 year old eurotrash and mad shady peeps u should be avoiding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibelong2thenight Posted October 16 Report Share Posted October 16 well which LL crowd are u talking about? recently its been much younger and more clean cut on fridays... but if you're talking like a month or two back it was older and more "freaks" and ravers. either way tunnel is not much like LL. LL has very few freaks and ravers in comparison and the crowd is about 4-5 years older on average id estimate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkFloyd40 Posted October 16 Report Share Posted October 16 FG go for yourself and check it out if you've never been there. the layout is amazing and the music is great w/ vicious rockin the main floor. There's chicago hard house in kurfew, although not the frank alvee type *wipes tear from eye*. Can't really believe anyone cuz people just put down everything. twilo heads say factory is dirty and all crackheads and factory heads say the same about them so there really no way to know unless you go for yourself. definetly gonna be there on halloween and if its like last year should be off the meter-Rob-------------------BRING BACK FRANK ALVEE-"And thus they give the time, that Nature meantFor peaceful sleep and meditative snores,To ceaseless din and mindless merrimentAnd waste of shoes and floors."

The funny thing is the place is a drinking crowd these days and everyone keeps talking about it being all crackheads. I guarantee if you check the bar receipts between there and factory it would be no comparison-------------------BRING BACK FRANK ALVEE-"And thus they give the time, that Nature meantFor peaceful sleep and meditative snores,To ceaseless din and mindless merrimentAnd waste of shoes and floors."

firegirl Posted October 16 Author Report Share Posted October 16 trancegrrl: what's going on the 27th? and yep, it's the creepy old guys and sleezy eurotrash or wannabes that ick me out.

LL has very few freaks and ravers in comparison and the crowd is about 4-5 years older on average id estimate. went to LL 2 fridays ago and the crowd was 95% meathead guys and drunken ditzy girls, no style, no coordination. everyone standing on the floor taking up room but not dancing. slimey guys touching at me or hounding me. fights breaking out, sometimes with the bouncers in the mix.

vampienyc10 Posted October 16 Report Share Posted October 16 I haven't been there in years but the reason for me no longer attending was due to the fact that, i mean don't get me wrong..if you want to do drugs.. I mean I dabble myself but at least Exit/SF/Twilo/Vinyl for the most part has good looking drug users.. Do you get my drift?? The Tunnel, well, these people are really young.. and at the same time they really look cracked out..b/c they really are cracked out..... It is as if the blood was sucked out of all of them or something?? It is really gross....------------------------------------------@vampienyc10vampie@aol.com"One is not born a woman, one becomes one."- Simone de Beauvoir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firegirl Posted October 16 Author Report Share Posted October 16 pfloyd: oh, I'm planning to go at some point just to check it out. I'm just trying to get a sense of it to see if it's worth going this friday. there are about 4 other great things going on all at the same time and I'm trying to narrow it down to the safest ( most likely to enjoy) options.FG------------------fire in da belly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bungee Posted October 16 Report Share Posted October 16 About a year ago, Me and a friend was at Webster and it sucked like an octopus. So we headed ove to Tunnel, friend said it was awesome a few years back. Man, BIG mistake. Paid 20 bucks and what'd we get? Bunch of peeps out cold, I mean OUT COLD on the benches and floors. As I am a non roller, I was sacred shitless. Bunch a punks and homeless people in there. SCUMBAGS GALORE. If that's your scene, you'll have a great time. Tell us about your experience afterwards?
