mattm2o Posted November 30 Report Share Posted November 30 HERE IS THE NEWS FOR ALL ENQUIRING MINDS!!!The club isn't closing. But due to differences and beliefs of what the party should be we have decided to end the Nation party officially forever, and kill the Nation name once and for all!The last few weeks to me have been a joke musically, and to me if it were to stay in it's current state there is no sense in putting my name on the Nation product anymore and many of the insiders behind the party agree with me 100 percent!1 Year and 4 different venues later the party is not anywhere the way it was the evening it started (The night after Thanksgiving 2003). Many of our regulars are not coming anymore and the love and consistency behind the party is no longer there. I personally lost a lot of interest when it went from being a team creative effort, to one person calling all the shots without notifying the other members of our group. I personally have to thank a lot of people that may not have been with us behind closed doors all the time but for playing a big role in our success over our one year span; Rudy (Rudeboyyouth), Ted (Teknojunkee), Brandie, Big Joe, Johnny Vicious, Mike Macaluso, Peter Bailey, Boris, Chris & Kai, DJ Razor, Mac & Ali The Low End Specialists, Anthony Nero, KC Anderson, DJ Theo, Mimic, DJ Waterboy, The message board members of CP, NB, VIP, & NCC, and of course The people that came and spent their money with us EVERY WEEK FOR A YEAR!!! Each and every one of you made Nation a pleasure for me! (All the Nation founding crew, Promoters, Lighting & Sound Techs, Resident DJ's, and general staff members you all know who you are and made Nation happen week after week)Also a BIG THANK YOU to Bobby Goodrich for getting the original party off the ground and spear heading the grass roots effort to revitalize the EDM Scene on Long Island!Everyone of the the Nation staff members will eventually move on and do something else in clubland! Some of us will work together again and some may not. In all honesty nobody is really pissed off at each other and there is no behind the scenes drama. The product is tired and it's time to try something new!So as it looks right now the 3 Final Nation parties will go as followedDecember 3rd DJ Razor's Birthday PartyDecember 10th My Birthday/The OFFICIAL SENDING OFF PARTY! DJ Lineup TBADecember 17th Borisif anyone needs to know anything else, wants to be on a guest list for any of these parties, or has any questions e-mail me @Nation2686@yahoo.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teknojunkee Posted December 1 Report Share Posted December 1 Cant even explain how much this hurts.Everyweek I supported this party.Very upset to see this but...hey...what can you do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudeboyyouth Posted December 1 Report Share Posted December 1 This definitely does suck, especially in light of some of the parties / lineups that team Nation managed to put together on Long Island since the party began. I don't think any other party on LI has ever accomplished - or will ever accomplish - what Nation accomplished for the period that it existed. Let's show some serious support for the next three Fridays, and send the party out with a bang. I'm sure many will be pleased with the lineup for Razor's birthday, the TBA lineup, and Boris.
