Why doesn't anyone post LA events anymore?

This used to be the best events listing, and now it's empty...

Is there a new place to get LA event listings?

Thanks!

LOL! Best place to find event listings is on Facebook and Instagram.

Not very convenient or readable, is it...

I just found a decent listing. Seems pretty complete:

http://thedjlist.com/events/los-angeles-us/

This is interesting as well for coverage of ravier stuff:

https://www.eventbrite.com/d/ca--lo...gular&sort=date

because nobody reads these boards. what's the point?

www.wantickets.com usually gives you a good idea on whats going on where.

Resident Advisor yo!

https://www.residentadvisor.net/events.aspx?ai=23

for the techno, house, deep house events.

Beat me too it.

This place is a graveyard.

lol facebook?

I log in to TA 10 times more than I do FB these days and that's saying something.

I actually think it's because promotors/marketeers don't know to post here now.

i still come here daily, but it's dead

COR is alive and kicking. But I miss the old West Coast forum days.

I come here most days. The c0r is busy (albeit plagued with cretins) and the production forum is nice and bustling.

At one point, people were saying the same thing about the production forum and and a few of said, If you want to change it, then post something up or ask something, so the regs did, and before you knew it, tons of action again and it's sustained.

Facebook is dead for me, I've never been a tweeter, like insta but it's disposable, The only constant is TA lol

I think we need to get back to reviewing parties. This was the spot that you could find out about an upcoming part but also fined some legit reviews too. I just don't know how many of us old farts go out on and party anymore

Last party I went to was Ame (dj set) at Lot 613. FUCKING SICK YO!!! It's rarity to catch him/them so I'm happy I made it.

Because when you only have a small handful of people who submitted events and then hundreds if not thousands of people who just read events (often times not even engaging in the threads for events they even go to) it starts to not become a priority for those few who submit events

Also the other reasons people listed, but I think this is a big one. It takes time and effort to put in many event's details / post links to tickets / etc.

slowly but surely we are starting to add events here:

EDM Life events listings

Honestly, it's a sad thing to say but Facebook groups are where I have been going recently.

It's weird though, I tend to notice the EDM ones are sometimes super spammy. The Honda and automotive ones I am in and participate in are 100 times more active then the forums that created the FB groups.

I wonder how a west coast TA FB group would work out?

Not trying to steal TA's thunder swamper, just a thought that might get people going again? Because actually attracting them back on here is almost impossible, I would think :/

forums in general for the most part have declining traffic... it is what it is...

All good! I'm just joking around lol. Also FB groups are very spammy.... people just pop in, dump a link, and leave. People aren't motivated to write up something big because it may not get any traction ...AND... even if it does, it may get buried after a day never to be seen (or linked to) again!

Also add to the fact that DJ events are so prevalent that most of them no longer have people excited for days/weeks/months at a time in anticipation... and it was those kinds of events that had people write up paragraphs upon paragraphs about how the party was/etc. You're lucky to get a few sentences on an instagram post now.... and the blog sites that exist (and post reviews) usually keep it safe for fear they'll lose their media credentials the next time around.

Objective party/music reviews are the hardest thing to find these days. :/

We need another Hot Chicks with Douchebags thread to revitalize this place.

Ain't that the fucking truth.

Seen it first had at a couple Insomniac Events, where shit went down and I'm surprised not to see anything in their media.

Same goes with the local news papers the ones that review the events, don't like to take a stab at them. It's the ones that don't give a shit about edm and are constantly against the events actually throw dirt.

Deaths are the ones that really get them talking...

With this place being a graveyard now a days my only options are FB, IG, and Reddit, too bad as I loved reading peoples long detailed club/festival reviews on Mondays :|
