djbrandon Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 Ok first I wanted to say hi. I been lurkin on the boards reading up what I can. Finally as my Vegas trip is getting closer I decided to sign up and post. Thanks to all for some of the great info I have found here thus far. My last trip to sin city was almost 3 years ago. It was a great time and I hope this trip is gonna be even better. I am flying in for the Mobile Beat DJ convention. It's being held at the Stardust this year. Kind of a bummer there. I like the club scene and that place is not exactly in the center of the action. Anyway I'll be there Feb 22nd - flying out in the afternoon Feb 27th.One thing I am wondering .. I have a room at Stardust fopr the convention. It's cheap and I will need to be there for the business end of things. The convention is only tuesday -Thursday. After that I have no ties to the Stardust. I have thought about moving rooms..going down the strip toward the action for Thursday Friday and Saturday. Part of me says the room is just for crashin so who cares. However, we did hang in the casino shakin off hangovers daily last time out. Even if I got closer like Hard Rock I know the Casino scene is better there in terms of drinking and hanging with a 30 something crowd. Any thoughts? Is moving down the strip worth the hassle? My other question is whats the weather gonna be like? I know nobody is a weather man here but ..just an average Feb temp night and day will do.

MysticRain Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 First of all, welcome. You will def find all the info you need right here. Second, February is still pretty cold. Temps are about 50's in the day and 30's at night. Third, make sure you hit up Ice, Tangerine, Body English, Ghost Bar and Curve to name a few. And also remember Bill Le is here to help you so ask him for any help. He can set you up with almost anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbrandon Posted January 11 Author Report Share Posted January 11 Damn 50's and 30's. Not what I wanted to hear. Of course I wasn't outside much at all last time out. I've been working on an itenerary. Most every place you listed is in my plan at some point. I contacted Bill via email a couple months ago. I guess I jumped the gun a bit. He told me to contact him again just a couple weeks before we head out there. Hard to not get to excited about a Vegas trip. Last time out I had an amazing time. Valet guy hooked us up each night with cheap limo's and a couple passes. 3 guys 5 bucks each and we took one everywhere we went in the evenings. My favorite spot last time out was Baby's but it's gone. From the looks of BE I doubt it will be missed. I have Body English on the schdule for Friday night. Drais was good to me last time out. My buddy and I hooked up with a couple Texas girls we met there. It wasn't easy to get in though. We greased the door guy when we saw the line around the block. It shocked the hell out of me whe we emerged from the place and the sun was already out. I hated Rain.. it wasn't crowded and the decore just wasn't me. To be honest half the fun I had last time was bucking the system. Limos, the clubs where we got to the front of the line, vip etc just seemed more exciting. Hell we had a limo ride and vip passes to Speirment Rhino.. the bouncer literally moved a guy from a table near the stage to accomidate us. It's cool to party like a rock star Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danswat79 Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 Make sure you check out ICE on Saturday night - not sure who the DJ is yet for those dates but they bring in the best house/dance music in town Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitty7467 Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 I've been in February before and the weather wasn't that bad... didn't need a coat during the day. But I definitely agree that you should check out BE, ICE and Tangerine. All are great places! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djbrandon Posted January 12 Author Report Share Posted January 12 Everyone thanks so far for your advice. The unofficial schedule I planned based on information I found here has us atTangerine Wednesday nightThursday - ?Friday - BESaturday - IceTuesday night we though about 54 for the EDEN thing.Is the Pure Tuesday night gonna steal 54's thunder? We of course also plan on hitting Ghost bar early on one night and after hours somewhere on Thursday and Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrvegas Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 If you are into hip-hop check out RA on thursday, if you like altern. check out TABU, if you need more info contact me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djmasterweb Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 I think Studio will eventually be forced to merge their Tuesday into Thursday night because Pure will definitely steal Tuesdays. The next big club to open should go after Thursday. That's really the only weeknight that doesn't have a big local domination other than the urban hip-hop crowd at Ra Thursday.

BillLe Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 Couple spots to recommend on Thurs. For the Hip-Hop crowd go for Ra or OPM. Laid back have to hit Tabu. Pure should be open as well. Your itinerary looks good as you have it. Just fill Thurs and you're good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
