Thanks mom.

The point was if you're going to make impressions why not start off right?
Why give the go ahead with a hack version of something that's more grand?
I'm not saying the website IS a reflection of what the club IS,
I'm saying that the website SHOULD be a reflection of what you WANT the club to convey to your customers; just some basic business 101...
(besides the fact that it took the Grade 3 class the whole day to create it...)

Agreed.
Someone who is on the site, deciding whether or not to go, and finds the site difficult to navigate may go somewhere else.
First impressions are crucial.

I personally found the website to be almost pointless. Every link lead to a "coming soon" message.

GRAND OPENING IS TOMORROW!!!!!
Site sucks we know
Club itself - Amazing.
They've managed to be successful so far with the shitiest website on planet earth. Im sure whatever money they held back on the website went towards the best sound system in Toronto.

Speaking of Boa...this club is definately serious about stickin around.

Satoshi all the way in February, but in between that they got Copeland (as most already know) and Oliver Lieb at the end of this month, as well as Oscar G & Murk and somebody else who I'm forgetting.

The key is to find the 1 active pixel that links to the event

I totally agree wiht you there... the website may not "make" the club, but it can play an integral role in promoting the club and convincing ppl to check it out who have not been there aready or heard shit about the club via word of mouth...

the website i feel is a tool to promote ur bisuness, in this case, the club, and having a crappy-ass webpage isnt really doing the job it should... u want ur webpage to assist!!

but with time, im sure itll get better... hopefully soon! Not everything is good from the get-go....

With all due respect Jeff, they've only had two events...

They should really clean up the website cause everyone seems to be talking about this club and the first place to check up on it is the net.

I hope Boa sticks around. I heard the sound system is spectacular but what about lighting and set up?

Sound system is the best in Toronto hands down. The setup, well the only thing i could complain about is the stairs that escalate towards the back of the club (some people complained of tripping on them througout the night). The lighting is very minimal, but just the right setting. The lasers center the main part of the dance floor and the dj booth is elevated towards the side of the club (right in front of the stairs that bring you down to the lounge area). It is a very wide shaped club (if that makes sense) which gives us plenty of dancing space. A lot of seating is provided for those who want to take a break from dancing (which might come in handy at 11am). Nice thing about the system is its loud, crisp, and the sound is good no matter where youre standing (unlike the Guv). Four huge speakers occupy every corner of the main dance floor area, and the back of the club (which is mostly occupied with couches) has mini speakers that still sound great, but are low enough volume to carry out a conversation. Hope that gives you a good enough idea of the setup Vince

Boa has to do with a club in TO that was already opened, or was trying to get set up and didn't...I can't remember the exact story.

Redux = "Brought back; returned. Used postpositively."

Basically that the club is back for a second time.
