good point

but the fact is, a club won't fill-up until 12am or 3 to 4 hrs b4 they close......thats pretty much anyday, anywhere in US (no matter u have a job or not, 21+ or not)

I raised this point in the PVD thread for November.... I think that if the promoters advertise, from the beginning, that the headliner will go on @ precisely 9:30 or 10 and the club will CLOSE @ 12, then people will come out... I mean, the majority of people are not going out because they want to stay out until 3:30, they're going out because they want to see PVD, AVB or whoever is headlining... So, the whole point here is to NOT give people the option.. simply say, the club will close @ precisely 12:00....

I suspect that the reason for these weekday sets is because the headliners are cheaper than on weekend days, but it kinda sucks, because for PVD, or AVB, or Sasha, the club is going to sell a capacity crowd, regardless of day... Plus, the 18+ crowd gets to bank in...

My solution to this problem is to start bringing in serious headliners to a venue, OTHER than a club... The Abbey is being used quite heavily these days to throw Circuit parties... Also, there's the old Nike Pavillion and not to mention, the NATC. I would love to see pvd or sasha or someone, spinning EPIC parties @ these venues, where all ages, from 18+ can attend... that way, you have more space... PLUS, the promoter can sell more tickets and still turn a nice profit...Again, I suspect this is how things would turn out, or I might just be talking out of my ass...lol

I dunno.. these are just my ideas... I wanted to see AVB so bad, but I had an early morning committment... plus, I"m most likely going to have to miss PVD this next time around

i wiould like for pvd to play a 25 minute set. seriously who still likes pvd besides mikey mike?

guilty as charged. pvd has slipped in my personal rankings but he's still the trance god and i will be at his wednesday show. when you get up at 3am to walk the dog, think of me as i stumble back home.

for shows at the abbey they will not start till 11:30 pm because they run a restraunt ahead of time and then they have to close at 3:00 am. Nike pavillion wil not allow any more parties. They did one more for us but noise complaints from the new condos across the street. The whole NATC thing is another can of worms. The costs in hosting an event there and the amount of people actually going out these days is a lose lose situation.

That all being said we have decided to start doing some 18 and up friday night shows at a new venue with multiple headliners and we are working on another Liquified Universe for april 2006.

Yes exactly. So on a Wednesday night one of your favorite DJs comes to town, I say, suck it up. And if you tried to make it so the headliner come on at 9:30 or 10:00, I would be one of those pushing for him to stay on unitl 3am anyways.

EXACTLY.... Be a good adult and take the next day off... Or suck it up! I had to work last Monday when everyone else had off but I was still drinking it up like a rock star at 5:00am. Same with Armin this past Wednesday (although I was smart and took Thursday off!). I know it sucks getting older and having to work for a living, but that is the price you pay. Make a decision, is the person coming really that important to you and if so, SUCK IT UP!!!

Sucking it up is always an option especially since these shows don't happen terribly frequently.

Would it be possible to arrange more pre-show events like at Satellite Records? That way, those who can't make it can still come support their favorite dj. I think this would work, especially if it were a cd signing + short set event. Besides, everyone loved it when Zabiela spun there for a crowd of maybe 20 people.
