No, the stabbing incident occurred in a parking lot, and while I have never been to Crystal Room, I don't believe its a 'gangster club'.

I was driving around the area last night but not that close at about 2:30 am. Was on Spadina and King area lotta cars of people just leaving really, but didn't know this happened, how terrible.

that really freaks me out, especially since I have to walk everywhere downtown. maybe I'll start taking cabs/streetcars more often...

It's funny how a lot of people on this site, and in general like to draw a dividing line with an air of superiority between dance clubs and hip-hop ones.

What you fail to grasp is that those big people dressed all in black providing security, and that skinny sketchbag you get your drugs from, are in the very least connected to organized crime, and @ worst have their own guns and knives on them, and get them in quite easily because they are employees of the club.

I've seen guns in every major EDM club over the years, often while in the offices or hanging out with the employees and regulars.

There is a reason some people wear a jacket in a sweaty place, and it ain't fashion.

I'm not defending this happening, and I do believe we should care about what's going on, but it surprises me how surprised some people in the posts are when hearing about these things. We live in the 4th or 5th (can't remember exactly) biggest city in North America. We have millions of people in the city and plenty more tourists coming in every day. No matter how nice of a reputation we have historically, it's just nearly impossible with that amount of people NOT to have the odd person do something ridiculous.

OK maybe but how often do they use them? Seriously? I suspect "real" gangsters only use them as a last resort and are a bit smarter with them as opposed to the wannabes that shoot up the place to prove they are a man. And that to me is what hip hop is all about.
