Well considering the Stars wouldn't be back until game 6, that would be Sat. night. But they'll be finishing off the Sharks tonight anyway.

Thanks though.

& yeah, I'm noticing that Big-D is looking more like the Big-Zzzzz.
The company prez is takin us all to ghostbar on Fri, but I'm thinkin that'll just be typical commercial house (house & electro stated on their website for that night), so we'll see what happens I guess.

Spent a month there a long time ago...

Hated Texas and Texans...

Only good thing about Texas is Dr Pepper and ice cream sandwiches...

Funny, when you think back to 80's and Dallas and San Antonio owned the mdma scene(pretty much implemented it into the club scene) was one of the bigger edm area's in north america

I read that you could buy mda at a bar there with your drinks and pay for it on your credit card...

not sure about now, but back in the 80's it was legal and pure, it was documented at outings such as family bbq's and other such events you would come across an aunt, uncle, your mom or dad high.

It was legal and seen as a upper, sort of the equivalent of redbull today....obviously no where as good

Even though it has an active forum, doesn't look like a whole lot is going on besides a some young kids listening to breaks or dnb (see photos).

if i ever set foot in texas the first thing i'd try is their bbq.


Posted by gimmebeatz on Apr-30-2008 23:09:

yea lizard lounge is pretty horrible however if ur there on a thrusday, ghostbar, like the one in vegas, which is on the 33rd floor of the W hotel downtown plays house music on thurs and has brought in decent headliners the past few weeks....junkie xl, felix da housecat, and a few others. other than that the only advice i can give u is stay away from the afterhours clubs!! pure hell with the worst music ive ever heard!

Dallas took a beating in this thread lol


Posted by tonybologna on May-01-2008 01:13:

Yes but from my understanding Dallas is the best city to live in Texas.


Posted by elFreak on May-01-2008 04:04:

not even close, that would be austin...even san antonio is better.

dallas sucks and the bbq is shit too, trust me on this. Memphis style > texas style...even kansas city bbq is better.

ghostbar is in the W hotel...its probably a bunch of dj's who call themselves the 12" pimps. They suck hard and expect to hear party all the time and the cheesiest fucking house you can imagine. The place is nice though and you get a neat view of the city.

oh yeah, on your way home expect your flight to be delayed forever...it always is at dfw.

Thanks to all for the tips & info.... looks like it's just going to being drinking in corporate america with some played out edm facsimiles. Perhaps I will need to engage in some Hunter S Thompson style gonzo journalism and fire it onto the intarwebs.

Cheers.

Wow, you guys are funny. Been in Dallas one day and you think you have it all figured out. Dallas has struggled as of late with the EDM scene, but there are still plenty of places to go.

Funny that someone brought up the 12 inch pimps. That's not even close to being some of the best DJ's in town, with the exception of Willie and Kean.

I could have told you (oh wait, I did tell you) that Ghostbar would suck You went to a commercialized corporate run bar. What the hell did you expect?

If you ever come back to Dallas, try going to the places we recommend. Or better yet, hit one of us up and we'll all meet out for drinks. Plenty of places to go listen to really good music, if you don't follow the 30k millionaire crowd.

Cheers

PS-Dallas > San Antonio and Texas BBQ>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Any other BBQ, by far!!!!

Understood that it was going to be a corporate shithouse... but I couldn't really ditch the company president, now could I? lol

That said, when I called the places recommended to me, all said that they were closing at 2 or so, so no point in going on a forray to hunt down something that'd be closed by the time I got there.

The bottom line is that I tolerated as much as I could, then when I finally had a chance to check out what else there was, there was nothing left to check out b/c it was all closing ... so what's the deal with that? Everyone in the state gets to carry guns, but nothing is open past 2?

Come on Texas, get it together.

Jonas, get on up here to Toronto, you will love it & I'll be sure to meet up with you for drinks and venue selection. But be prepared, nothing worth attending closes before 4am here, so bring your stamina.

Cheers.

Haha! Yeah, some things really don't make sense in terms of our laws.

I didn't realize you would be wanting to go out late night. There are a couple of options there that I could have told you about. Don't think any of them would be a place you would want to go with your boss, though.

I have been to Toronto and loooooovvved it last time I was there. Probably need to make a trip there sometime soon.


Posted by The Ear on May-05-2008 22:10:

Indeed you do. Check out the events forum and go from there note that every Labour Day (that's how it's supposed to be spelled lol) in the past there havev been great TA BBQ parties, and evven though Tatgirl is away, I don't see us not doing one in memory of her block parties. So perhaps that'd be a solid weekend to look at.

Either way, keep us posted.

Cheers!
