Bling Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 Crobar as of late has really hit its stride lately. Such moves as bringing in Ralph Falcon as their new resident and booking djs like Donald Glaude, Anthony Pappa, and Sasha in the past few months, coupled with Edgar's cuurent residency, Crobar has been impressive.I was accompanied tonite by two lovely ladies (non board members), Vivian and Ester along with Ester's long time friend David. Thanks to Colby's and Jon's list I was able to get myself and all my lady friends into the club with no problem. Their was a bit of a wait by the cash register but nothing to complain about. The drink tickets were distributed, we were hooked up.... :Though they didnt stay for too long I am glad they got to mee the birthday Girl Carisa Jon was on the decks already throwing down a nice progressive house set. The place was pretty empty at the time so I drop in to say Hello to Jon and introduce him to my friends. We then got our drinks and went to the third floor got some pics.... Yada Yada....... LOLAround 12 the place started to get jumping. As always there was a large representation of board members. Mostly from CJ this time but there were some Cper's as well. Special shoutout goes to Macboy... u stayed longer then i did. I am impressed. no early bed time for u tonite sir Also great to see James (Coach) and Annie, as well as Koky, Edgar V, Sammy O, Renzo, Jimmy T, Patois, and OMFGGGGGGGG FUNKETEER!!!!! great to see u again after so long...... There was a lot of junkies in attendance. Of course POD, Trancelator, Turbo240, Zero, Diego's friend Jamie, Andrew Chibale, MDP, BCNjunkie, Cosminigon, DJTekWrek.....What I have noticed in the past few weeks at Crobar is that lots of industry people are attending the big events from Edgar V to Anthony Pappa. Tonite, was no exception. In attendance was: Luis Puig, Oscar G and his brother, Karin( great seeing u again), Stryke (Greg), and a very sweet young lady i had the pleasure of meeting, Dominique (Loft Magazine)..So around 1245 or so my friends had to leave because they were meeting up with another of their buddies on south beach.At this point i bump into Catalina (Caticataca)....I want to send a special thank you for making my nite a great one. Your a blast to hang with and a very sweet girl. Looking foward to the pics you took tonite. Catalina from what she told me, was very impressed with Crobar (her first time there). Jon Cowan and Anthony Pappa SetsJon and Anthony were pretty much tag teaming all nite. SO glad for Jon to be spinning for a packed house. Definitly well deserved. I really liked the last few tracks of his set before Anthony took the decks. Havent heard a few of those tracks in a long time. (I wish I could ID them but I suck at id'ing house) I was pretty much on the dance floor at this time. Overall the end of Jon's set before Anthony Pappa came one had me dancing the most all nite long. Anthony Pappa was ok. A lot better then Lawler and Hernan @ Space no question. What really impressed me though was Anthony's use of both Cdr's and both turntables he was really moving around up there just trying to keep up... He definily used all the equipment he was given. Definitly hope to see Jon at Crobar again. Just a quick funny note. I was getting into the harder stufff Jon was dropping and i started to dance a bit right on the railing surrounding the booth, when Stryke (Greg) comes up to me and says "THAT'S TECHNO" heh u trying to convert me ? def cant wait for Nocturnal to open up to ck you out on a regular basis. Overall he club never really got too too packed but it was jammed enough, especially the area behind the DJ booth. People dancing, drinking... etc......As opposed to the times I am there for Edgar V (I am normally jumping around in the booth) I had the opportunity to walk around the club at some length. I never get tired of people watching from the second floor. Seeing people dancing from above all in unison.... Poetry in motion. From up there got to see the bartender up front bust out with a fire extinguisher and spray it all around kickin up napkins everywhere. Last but certainly not least, must send out a huge shoutout to Carisa. May you have a happy and incredible birthday weekend. I was honored to share such a milestone birthday with you. (oops my mistake the first annivesary of your 29th birthday)Left at around 430 am and as I was walking back to my car noticed something went down on Washington. CSI vans and cops everywhere with yellow tape surrounding a part of the street. Not good..... Till next time...... most likely tomrrow at either Space or Blue__________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cosmigonon Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 Yeah, I had a great night too. Lots of CJ heads, Renzo, Bling, Pod, of course, the bday girl Carisa, Coach, Annettte, Phunky, Turbo240, Trancelator and I met a couple of ohter members, Mirza, DjTekWrek, all4tribal and I think mikey4, or was it mdp? ??? I really don't know.I gotta thank CJ, this the 1rst time I use the guestlist and it workde just great, no drama at the door, got all hooked up right away ;DThe surprising thing is that there were a lot more CJ heads than I thought and I didn't even got to meet them. I also want to thank Bling to finally remembering my name ;DThe club was packed, really packed, ant the music was really good, sorry I can't say anything more, but I ain't no trainspotter :-[, so I'll leave that to the people who know. After that we heade to Envy, but by that time I was feeling bad, so I just stayed ther for half an hour and left. Thanks to Rick for the hook up at the door.Well, I guess I'll see you around, gotta go to work now. 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DJTeKWReK Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 I got to the beach around 10:30, dropped off my list at State and ran over to Crobar to say what up to everyone. The line was long, so I didn't even get cheked off on Jon's list, so I had Luis walk me in. I found Bling and his two friends, Vivian and Ester, great to see you as always Bling (AND THANX FOR THE EDIT IN UR REVIEW!!! lol). After jammin for a bit, I went up and introduced myself to Jon (great to finally meet you bro) who was throwing a groovin set! Not long after that, I had to return to State and work my crowd for a little while. I think i finally got back to Crobar around 3:00, but I was a little wasted, so I don't much remember the time. I found Carissa (happy b-day again babe! you can't say that it was a bad night by any means!) and she introduced me to Mirza (wassa bro), Turbo, Cosmignon, and a whole bunch of other CJers (which happened one after the other, so excuse me if i didn't mention your name... it was a bit of a frenzy!). Dan was of course in attendence, (looking very sharp in that suit jacket might I add... a change from t-shirt wednesdays at Cafeteria!).. Around 4:40 I ran back to State to close down the club, and then returned to Crobar to find everyone going to NV, so I decided to tag along, although I was extremely tired and bit tipsy... lol We waited in line a little, but I had a great convo with you guys, hope to see u 2nite at space. Carissa, sorry I never made it in, but u know I love ya anywayz! All in all, a great night, and I'm psyched for some Afterhours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mikepayne Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 Left at around 430 am and as I was walking back to my car noticed something went down on Washington. CSI vans and cops everywhere with yellow tape surrounding a part of the street. Not good..... I walked outside about 4:10 to grab a breath of fresh air and make a phone call. As I was standing there around the front door of crobar, a huge fight broke out. Some guy was basically waiting outside crobar for another guy he was arguing with to come out, and when the dude came out, all hell broke loose. Bouncers were jumping over railings and shit, lots of punches were thrown, they would up having to practically hogtie the guy that started it. Two bouncers put him on the floor and each grabbed one leg and they stretched him like a wishbone. I felt sorry for the dude's groin, hehe.In the last two weeks I've seen more fights at crobar than in the past two years. Coincidentally, crobar has also been HOT the past two weekends. And I mean temperature-wise. It's like the frickin' A/C is broken or something. Never before last weekend have I seen the bartenders bust out the fire extinguishers, but they were doing it all night last Friday, Saturday, and tonight.Fun, fun, fun!

Guest mikepayne Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 more than likely ill hit space as the weather sucks (wanted to hit blue and crobar) OK... I'll bite on this one. First off, I'll admit the only club I'd ever been to on South Beach was crobar until last night. I know a few people that work there, so I usually get to skip the line and the overall experience there is really nice. With that said, last night it was suggested to me to walk across the street and check out Blue as we were leaving crobar on the way to eNVy. I walked in the door and finally realized why all my friends who've been to mad clubs on the beach tell me I'm so spoiled. I think my apartment is bigger than that place. I really just don't understand why anyone would leave crobar to go there, or go there in the first place unless crobar's line is crazy. Maybe if I was at crobar and the music was totally blowing ass, and I didn't feel sufficiently drunk yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewChibale Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 doode ....a place being packed doesnt mean shit ... crobar is always like that ... they could have "mickey mouse" playing there and the place will still get packed .. from that point on, is the dj business to get the party going on ..last night, it was just more of the same old shit .. prog prog prog .. the miami scene needs soemthing different ...prog prog prog = blah blah blahi did went to Blue and i had way more fun that at crobar ...only reason i went back was because of Carisa ...everything else sucked assbtw, im gonna have to agree with Saleen ... bring a fucking classics night !

Guest web_norah Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 btw SPOT ON Andrew!seriously, anyone can pack a club and Crobar is always full ..i am not dumping on anyones parade last night....but the appeal of prog faded a long time ago.....not 100% on the classics thing, i just dont see it happening unless someone like Frankie Knuckles or Danny Krivit is invited to play Miami....

Guest DJTeKWReK Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 Blue is awesome because not only has it been running for YEARS, it always has a nice crowd that is there for the music, which is usually good. Crobar fills up with 1/4 tourists, 1/4 single chicks that wanna get laid, 1/4 people that try to be "VIP", and 1/4 people that actually care (which are the same people on this board and in the industry). You should come out to cafeteria wed, like i said MDP, we'll hit blue after. Danny Tenaglia likes ot hang there on Wed. nites, i'll into u if he's there. OH BTW, THE CSI VANS AND ALL THAT WAS THERE CAUSE SOMEONE GOT STABBED IN FRONT OF MADONNAS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you wanna have a couple of beers and listen to some cool music, you can go to Blue (that's all you can do anyway, cause the music is too loud to have a conversation), becuase they rock at it. If you feel like having the whole experience, go to Crobar, you will never be disapointed...When I'm broke i go to Blue, otherwise...

CrzyC1414779017 Posted August 8 Report Share Posted August 8 last night it was suggested to me to walk across the street and check out Blue as we were leaving crobar on the way to eNVy. I walked in the door and finally realized why all my friends who've been to mad clubs on the beach tell me I'm so spoiled. I think my apartment is bigger than that place. Variety is the spice of life and when you walk into Blue it feels like everyone is gonna yell, "NORM!" Not only that but Marc Vane is an incredible DJ...just a different style that most other DJs on the beach...thats why I like it. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of boarders out and about...too many to mention....cool hanging with yall as always. Gina wasn't feeling too well, so we bailed early, grabbed some PIZZA and headed home.
