Let's hope it's a typo. This place has alot of potential, but if it's 2am thing, then it's just a waste.

Hey.. if it allows me to see global talent that would otherwise not be booked here - that's great and all I need.

heh, drgoodvibe and I did a little scouting and spying on the club today .. the main entrance still seems to be the old Playdium entrance.. we managed to peer inside , and the place still looks under some massive construction.

i kinda have opinions on the place both ways from what i saw .. but i guess i'll just let time tell

lol yea that was hilarious, staking out a club, seems like its going to be massive, right in the middle of club district. ANybody want to guess how much a beer/mixed drink would be? If it even serves booze =\

Good news from the inside guys.......

I did some scouting today. I went into the place and checked out their offices to talk to the receptionist, and she said aside from a nightclub, the place's gonna aim to host corporate events, and various other events that might need such an environment.

I Also spoke to an engineer and he showed me some skematics of the place and I looked at some skematics that were scattered on a counter while I was quietly snooping around the place... there's gonna be LOTSA lounge space, danceing space, a billiards area, etc.
It looks to be incredibly massive... I think it's about the same if not double the amount of room for people as the Guvernment has. There's 4 floors, escalators, and I was told they're aiming for 4 DJ booths. The place was just finished being demolished inside except for main structures, as I was told, and they're gonna start with infrastructure and electrical/utility work very soon. I'm not so sure they'll be done until the fall season.

I see this place as a definite competition to the Guvernment and I'm hoping they'll bring the massive talent we deserve to get in Toronto.
It's clear they're trying to stay hush-hush right now, so I won't give away any more details.

desidel and drgoodvibe.... did you guys actually go in or just look thru the windows??

I've always wanted another complex in TO too. Well considering current music marketability and club-life activity.. your list prolly isn't far off.

my prediction is (with preference biased):..
room 1..trance/house/electro
room 2..hardstyle/hard house/uk house
room 3..top40/rap/r&b/hiphop
rooo 4..retro/alt rock

I just figure they're gonna span as much genres as possible and shove em into this huge place, which easily has the space.

It's a 27 year old female that owns the place

that is a pretty good bias, i wouldn't mind that! ofcourse room 1 beign as the main room


Posted by Max Q on Mar-31-2004 05:54:

Time will tell what this place will be like.

..unless we get some more insider info from Foo, DrGoodvibe and Desidel

regardless, System's still home for me :P

I actually heard that they did not get approved for their liquor license and that the lease was contingent on them gettign approved.

My sources tell me that Lucid is a dead deal.

its gonna be Toronto's exclusive home for Ministry of Sound and Space, so you better believe they'll be bringing in some top-notch talent

Guvernment's monopoly in danger? uh oh

That is a picture of Ministry in London. Don't know if anyone said that already.

should be kewl to have a new club -



yahoo


Posted by Jayx1 on Apr-05-2004 04:50:

This place could be a contender in the Toronto (and global) clubscene if it meets these critieria:

-Stays open until at least 6am

-Doesnt have a dress code or at least only bans things like sports clothing and bandanas. (let the people decide their own style instead of the "cloning" that goes on in most Toronto clybs these days.

-If it isnt lit up like a supermarket (the massive screens and bright lighting could be troublesome)

-If it has cutting edge modern music (not just the crap on the radio)

-the sound and light show are state of the art (and im not just talking about plama screens.... i can watch tv at home)


PS LMAO at people saying that guvernment charges high prices. Toronto has some of the cheapest clubbing prices in the world and thats a fact.

Cheapest? Not at guv at least. In my hometown, on thursday or saturday night, you'd be hard pressed to find a bar that charges more than $2.50 for a highball (Guv charges either 6, or 8$ on a saturday I believe). oh, and thats with a cover below $10 too.

i won't deny that i would like there to be more space at guv, but reasonable prices? you don't get more bang for your buck anywhere else. 10 bucks on a regular night, often w/ a intl headliner is dirt cheap. party anywhere else in the world and pay much more.

that was me tara/charmscars.
