| Originally posted by DJOS2 CiRCA hasn't completely failed (yet) but was always behind the 8-ball due to a long legal delay before opening, high rent, poor management and other things. If someone would just run the place right instead of like a retard convention, the place really has potential. OS |
There isn't a right formula for that space as a club...
Charles would've never given it up if there was...
get some big names, these people need to some good music research find dj's who are hot in different places... even look underground..you never know im really not trying to listen to same boring mash dj's

| Originally posted by ChemEnhanced What is the right formula for that location.....they've tried appealing to the Trance/House people and that didn't work....now they are trying to appeal to the top 40 crowd and that doesn't seem to work. There just isn't enough party people in the entertainment district for the number of clubs there are. |
Circa is crap. My main issue is that the main dance floor is way to small. I feel everytime I went there I spent my time walking around or pushed around by bouncers on some sort of power trip. Place just has a bad vibe with me.

| Originally posted by DJOS2 With a place that size there has to be a lot going on. They need to develop a concert business through relationships with the big players and labels, they need to promote various events on the same night with different entrances, they need to work on special events and meetings, the movie and television biz and many more. The place is very unique but simply relying on a bar crowd to make it work is not an option. There has to be multiple sources of income or its destined to fail. Its not what style of music, its the fact that any style should just be one of many income streams. OS |

I only went once or twice, and quite honestly, I never really understood it. I don't really know how else to describe it, but it just seemed like I never knew who the place was trying to appeal to.
I wish boa had had a liquor license. I think it would have done quite well.

| Originally posted by kotsy The first time I went to Whiskey Saigon was on a sunday and the very last night it was open. The following week they started major renovations which eventually reopened as Joe. I'll always have the memory of that one night I got to party at WS. |

| Originally posted by PivotTechno You can't put a pseudo-avant garde club in the middle of a sea of mediocrity (read: the entertainment district) and expect it to succeed. When you boil it right down, the majority of people who go out these days don't care about out-there decor and freaky mascots running around (well, maybe for the first five minutes), they just want to be where everyone else is. Successful super-clubs like Guv aside, I'd love to see someone step up and open up a place like Industry again, but that's more wishful thinking than anything else. Combination of just the right capacity, simple yet highly functional layout, absolutely killer soundsystem and bookings that for the better part emphasised the most skilled and forward thinking aspects of the dance music community. Most clubs these days (hell, on most days) are too caught up with flying in the flavour of the moment and hoping each night somehow sticks, rather than building loyalty based on long-term vision. Fuck marketing - whether 50 capacity or 5,000, the best clubs don't follow trends, they create them. |

I had a great time the both times I went there...
First time was the best when the Ballroom was bumping, saw Jesse Rose and Bang Gang DJs in there... amazing vibe!
Other time was for Carl Cox, maybe it was the company, or the atmosphere, but that was a wicked time as well.
I never had the chance to hit it up on a regular club night tho...
