Basement Club

ok, so I'm getting $600 for christmas and my friend is getting $300. We want to put that together and make a club in his basement. Since I am only 14 and he is 12 we will only be allowing 11-15 in the door .

The $600 will go towards used technics on ebay.
We Have:
-Club Speakers
-Amp
-Mixer

All of the $300 more will go to some cheap chauvet lights from musicians friend or somewhere. I've seen some pretty good music activated lights for $60 - $ 80 each and a $40 fog machine. Clamp those to the cieling and put plug them in. I think that should be enough in the meantime. We will be charging like $3 a night (every other week) or like a $25/year fee so we can upgrade things.

I will get permission from all neighbors...well I don't think I need it since they live at least 100-200ft away and sound usually doesn't pass through solid ground easily

Lineup will be me, neighbor and some guy that lives here.

We will have to check for drugs and alcohol because we don't want to get in trouble for that

Say...7PM - 11PM Every Other Weekend

Do you think people would come and come back? It's probably not going to be all trance...probably some hip hop, pop stuff in the beginning and then sliding into progressive, then trance.

Regards.

I was laughing pretty hard when you sent this to me on msn. I remeber how you clamied you were a drug dealer and it was common pratice to grow weed in your front lawns and no one would give a shit. Also you were selling ounces for like 15 or somthing.

Anyways, good luck with it. You should be able to find some pretty bangin' lights off the net somewhere, just use your parents charge card. Why do you need money for technices? You told me ages ago you have two decks and a mixer?

If you did that in the chicago, you could get charged for such things as opperating a dancing establishmen w/o a license. you pretty much need a license for everything you charge for here....

but like the rest, i did get a great laugh out of it

Hey man, dare to dream! That's what I say.

Go for it. Just be cautious of the fact that if you charge people you have laws that apply. Also things don't always run smoothly and you never know who you will get along. Make sure that you have someone there that can enforce your 11-15 policy not to mention the fact that your security isn't a problem of it's own (i.e don't employ psychos).

Good luck to you though.

Cheers
Nem

Sounds like a good time I guess. I would not be letting kids i don't know in my basement though. that creeps me out and the fact they might rob you blind really sucks. something to think about. good luck with it though.
