Gatecrasher Is No More

heavily rumoured to be having their final event at their club on may 16....

part of the reasons for teh closure simon raine thinking hes getting too old for this sort of stuff..scott bond tired of his residency there and ben thompson leaving....who is a big fuckin loser anywayz (Not that ive met him but all my mates in the uk who dj and are part of clubs reckon so anywayz)

I assume the label will still continue

you're only talking about the club night right?


Posted by JulesPLees on Apr-07-2003 05:05:

Umm this is pretty fuckin big news.


Posted by Paulie on Apr-07-2003 05:09:

I refuse to believe, the lion will always be with me!


CRASHER KIDS UNITE!


Posted by Solstice on Apr-07-2003 05:35:

why not get new staff to run the place, or new dj's ?

dont quite understand this one.

If this is true,
I hope there not going to blame this on mp3z too,
or maybe something similar that not enough ppl are coming to the club compared to the pub down the road
but then again they may feel they've acheived everything Gatecrasher possibly could have in it's time and now it's time to move on to a greener pastures.

Greaner pastures... wtf lions don't eat grass... lol

hope this doesn't happen.. this is gonna be blamed on mp3's.. but how is that? ppl don't download mp3's to stay @ home.. wtf?

This is a big rumour and there no evidence yet so innocent to proven guilty scanario. but would be very suprised at they have merchandise (cd's etc) worth millions in global sales plus the name, reputaton etc which all adds up to mega big bucks. Where would the Gatecrasher residents be without it??? probably banging away in their bedrooms as most of them dont have many successful producitons under their belts (with theexception of Scott Bond) who to my knowledge only recently did the 3rd Earth collaboration. But this is interesting news if there is any substance to it......

I'll do my bit to keep the dream alive by taking over scott bond's residency. It's hard but someone's gotta do it.

Score is

Raine = guy who began it all, but he's a twat, he'd rather have his pockets lined by beerboys...

Cybers go, drop pills, buy one bottle water, refill from taps

Beerboys continously buying all night meaning they'll make more money


Ben Thompson was great, he's a great guy too, tho some ppl dont get him, he had almost total control over bookings & everything, Raine just paid him to do the job, but Raine has a short fuse, and its thought they argued.

GC used to be the place everyone wanted to play, now its just a random club, like thousands of others, and the ppl on the gc forum can be twats, basically they complain about stuff and djs dont get booked & the whole atmosphere is shitty cos they argue over forum topics etc.

GC is being overtaken in ideas by slinky passion & godskitchen, all of whom run succesful nights weekly not monthly.

Yes it could be the end, but noone knows yet for sure,

Exactly - and until then, no one should speculate.

I can totally agree with that, but there are people who don't think Crasher is as good as other clubs anyway now, its all opinions though. Lineup wise they seem to be lacking, and have 4 or 5 same djs every time, which gives little fun for people paying money to see the same guys over & over imo


Posted by Dr P on Apr-11-2003 11:56:

When I was over in the UK last year. IU was primed to go to gate crasher but upon arrivl and shit it just didn't seem as large and it was going monthly and slinky in Bristol was shuttting and the whole scene seemed to be fading away.

The passion left cause the same guys each week and people were bored at least in our scene in melb it changes week to week month to month I mean weekly clubs just aren't working as well anymore because consumers are more discerning these days and want/need variety prolly the reason the genres have cross over crowds too...


did I cover enough topics then? sorry just needed pointless rant away from the purists


Posted by skware on Apr-11-2003 22:47:

Damn I hope not, it'd be a shame to have a whole tonne of people bitching about how "back in the days of GateCrasher everything was so much better, ..." without ever having been able to personaly get there and see it for myself.
