Bumped into Carey down on Spadina on Friday and he let me take a peek in the club to see what they were up to as far as the renos for the club go. Was great to see that with his work boots on and sleeves rolled up that he is pouring his own blood, sweat and tears into the place.
He let me know that over the next few months the space will be rolling out exciting new upgrades to the dancefloor, lighting, coat check and bathrooms. I know...I know... the big question on everyone's mind is ...what about the sound? Although Carey didn't want to go into specifics he promises that once the renovations are finished the sound will NOT disappoint. There is a plan in place and it is BIG.
that's all I got for now but if the House talent, that Carey's team has been able to bring into the city for us, is any indication of their potential... then the new year is definitely going to be an exciting one at 270 Spadina. W00T!! Can't wait.

270 Spadina, is that the working name of the place, or the official name?

Ya...270 Spadina Ave. (I hope they keep this name...cuz it sounds like a trendy New Yorkish clubb name) and I sure have a feeling that it's gonna be awesome, especially with some of the early parties:
November 5th
Sneak's Birthday Beats
DJ Sneak, Mark Farina, *Junior Sanchez* ++ A.D/D. Djs
But the one that's got my attention is November 12th **David Morales** <----been a long time coming
Nevio, Carlo Lio and Vinyl Junkies
Heidi have I told you lately that your awesome
Well you are cuz I almost forgot about Morales

Words cannot express my excitement for this club opening up. I know many others feel the same way.

sound
sounds exciting!
I'm sure over a few months lots can be done with the space, but will the sound be good for the events in November? Or will that be a work in progress too ? I am worried it will be hard to have a decent system in place for the next few events. I can live without changes in the decor for a few months, but need my sound

as much as I know and Love the alpha system (I do have one after all)
the thing 270 Spadina has going for it is flawless room acoustics , regardless of what system goes in there it will sound awsome
On the Alpha note there is a second alpha system sitting in a warehouse in mississauga (not Boa's , that is in another warehouse) that i know about , so this could potentialy be used there !!
