KW: Looking for Help/Support on Setting up a EDM Night In the City
Hello All TA's:
I have been hearing over the past 3 years now that their really is nothing here in the Kitchener Waterloo Cambridge Guelph area that supports Trance, Progressive music. (-Purple Room and Dennis's Hard work)
I would like to gather a small group of people to look at setting up a night in the area....even if its a rotating club night. Do a mini0-circuit or something. nothing big, just a place where some TA's and other EDM lovers can head out and chill for a bit. no big names or anything, gotta start small right?
So I need some help here.
1) People, need people who have Ideas
2) Location, anyone have contacts? Ideas for clubs? I know their are some new clubs in Waterloo that might do something.
3) Sponsorship? Something small would help
4) someone that has had some work with promitions
5) anyone that can help with everything!
Clubs: Elements? Starlight? Gravity Sound Bar (who knows about this???), what happened to the other club that was across from kit city hall? the partially gay one?
I was also looking at doing a live to air on the radio, i know I have a few on-line stations that would to re-broadcast each week.
Please PLEASE post your ideas and so on. Anything to help.
Their is 1/2 a million people in the area.....how can their be no chillout place on a friday or saturday.

Frequency? I remember going there maybe a year ago for a dnb night... it was good. All gone now?

frequency is a nice venue. they used to run weekly events there, but they died off.
the problem with k/w is that its hard to convince people to come out on a regular basis. anyone that goeso ut on aregular basis usually heads down to toronto.
best of luck to you, if you want to try and get something going.
if i were you, i wouldnt try and start weekly, especially right away. try organzing a one time event to meet some of the people in the area. if that goes well, build from that.
you also may wnat to try doing something by the universitys. i think that kzone karokee bar in university plazza let some jungle djs do a night one time, maybe try talking to them.
thats about all i can offer right now. best off luck, im off to melbourne. peace! :P
I would definity want to help out with this idea, but i can't make it out to the K-W area regularly. It's just too far out of the way from everything else inmy week. good luck barry

I don't know what UW has.
BUT PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SOMETHING NEEDS TO GET GOING AROUND HERE BESIDES THE PURPLE ROOM. We need a sweet place like The Barking Frog. I loved that atmosphere so much.
Give Ampz his own club dammit!

Hm, Rude Native bistro? My friend suggests that, apparently they have live bands sometimes. Maybe they'd be into something like this. Paddy Flaherty's maybe? Another suggestion was McGuinness Frontrow... Also Sammy's Garage downtown Kitchener.
