My main issue with pawn shop seems to be still there...the sound system in there is terrible...I thought they updated before or right after conference? That and I never liked the the whole broken tile flooring and the its so retro its chic feel to the place...just never really interested me...but the sound was the biggest thing for me....always sounded very hollow in there.

Nash had a stack in there for the conference but I believe they came out right after.

It will be interesting to what Holden sounds like on an alarm clock...

Well DAS is listed as a sponsor for the party, so I'm guessing there's equipment on loan from them for this weekend. I'm not a big DAS fan, but if it works, it works.

Hey Mr. S how cool it must be to be you! WOW thanks for letting us know how fabulous you are, invited to cut the long line of pissed off people. Total Props to you! I so appreciate (as i'm sure Pawn Shop does) your critique of the venue. Just knowing it earned the "saleen stamp of approval" makes me want to hang out there every night! Hearing your insightful views on how "Open format works and works well" and the mentality that "let's get drunk and screw" takes presidence over anything else in a club is a truly enlightened observation. It is so refreshing to hear that the club and customers do not take the music too serious. It is all about the PARTY!!! Yes, it is so annoying to see " loosers " actually go to a club for the music! What's up with that??? F... the music!!! What really makes your review of Pawn Shop so special is your attention grabbing mentality and lack of knowledge regarding music and how to review a club in general is rather comical especially coming from the BIGGEST ASS CLOWN on the board ;)

Welcome to the boards, you are obviously new.

Rule #1 - Dont feed The Saleen, his only goal in life is to get your attention.

:)

amen.

Ok, I went to check out the Pawn Shop to see what all the hype was about. To my suprise, the place was slammed wall to wall with huge lines.. Alan T got my crew in without no wait, lots of pissed off people after we cut the whole line. Note to un washed masses, I'm the saleen! Anywho, great focking party.... Open format works and works well. 2 Tracks off the Raising Hell album, way way way way way old school, I actually owned that tape, one of my first... Btw for you newbies Raising Hell was Run DMC. Froim disco, to hip hop, to rap to rock, it was so much fun..

But there's always a butt.

The DJ, very poorly done, it is possible to mix all genres almost seemlessly.. How do I know it can be done? I'll name 2 jocks I've seen do it live in person up and close.

First one is Mr Oscar G, the second one is Kid Rock. Very poorly done in terms of mixing, you can't cut tracks like that that's a sign of a hip hop dj.. Eddy, you need to scout out a new dj, or you need to cut that djs pay, any one can do what he was doing. Sneak Oscar G in one night and watch the difference. I saw kid rock mix the dukes of hazzard theme song with hip hop LIVE!

Next, add more bars, you guys are loosing money, it's such a great party, you need more bar space..

Finally the sound system is out of a alarm clock..

Overall, I thought it was a fantastic time, for one simple reason.. The club, the party, the muisc, the customers, the staff etc, no one takes it too serious... You don't have losers showing up going, "this guy sucks he didn't drop the new tech tribal minimal london deep neo classic house with trance bass lines"...

I can sum up PawnShop with some lyrics..

"Lets get drunk and screw!"

One request for the dj. Family Tradiition by Hank Williams Jr.

Anyway, good job guys, great party, great place, it's nothing like i've ever seen in Miami, and there was soooooooooooo much hot ass there....

You earn the saleen stamp of approval...

So then my gf got sick so we had to leave, but I wanted to pop my head into space to see og, so we drove by, around the corner where i usually park, there was these thugs with 28 inch rims, one dude had salsa music blarring while he danced in the street with some spic flag. It was a zoo down there... I didn't feel safe haveing my gf walk with me to Space, so we never parked..

Now the really really really bad news... It's ova.. So ova.. I did a little recon, I got a girl who works for those condos that are being built, now they are saying sept or oct for opening. Outside the pawn shop, you can hear all types of music echoing thru out the city to the point, there is going to be a war down there, clubs vs condos vs thugs.. It's going to get very ugly to the point, the super bowl parties will be tame down there. Space's and Nocturnals values will be cut in half by Oct...

Wow, thank you for checking out Pawn Shop for us! I'm sorry to tell you but, that club, and that party have been going on for a LONG time now.

All of the stupid info you posted, is common knowledge to those who are out more than once every six months or so. ::):P ::):P

Oh ok, so by your account, no one should review space, since that party has been going on for 6 years...

Pod and Nick please delete all space reviews except for the very first one... Thanks

If your post was a review, maybe i would understand. You wrote about the type of music that is played there, the lack of bars, the cool staff, the hot chicks, and that "it's nothing like i've ever seen in Miami".

Like i said earlier, if you made it out of your house more than twice a year, you might have realized this a lot sooner.

I almost forgot. Your 'spic' flag comment was very classy. Makes for a great 'review'. You're a clown

Actually, I'd say an outsider's perspective is nice to read. Too many reviews read like press releases.

Good review but kid rock? Wtf?

His music is ultra-corny, there are djs out there who are 50 times better then he is at cross genre blends; z-trip, nightmares on wax, andy smith, to name a few.

don't diss the kid, that guy can def spin.. However he is one of two that I've seen mix all genres together perfectly.

Pawn shop is always fun on saturdays. I was there for friday and behrouz was just amazing, but for house music I don't like the venue much. I don't know maybe it has something to do with the difference in crowd on fridays/saturdays or expecting to hear old school, rock, and 80's music when I head there.

Been saying this for 2 years. I finally gave up because nobody wanted to deal with the reality. You'd think the downtown clubs would have learned from what happened to south beach. I said there would be condos within blocks of Space, and was told it would never happen. Now look. Say, didn't some big club owner from downtown just buy a large stake in a longtime south beach club? Things that make you go hmmm....
