i miss the old VIP room

i actually do miss the old vip room too,, it was a good place to chill and sit down too... i remember one time,, i was in the mainroom and i was trying to make my way to the bathroom and some dude accidentally jabbed me in the eye with a few fingers and i had to sit in the vip room with ice for like an hour.
at least you could sorta talk in there and say hi and chat... WITHOUT RED LIGHTS!

i agree


Get rid of the red!

Very good points here.........if this is truly the opinion of most people, I cannot see how our or other's feelings regarding the room will not make it's way to System management.

We know from experience that if enough people speak up, they are open to change (remember the giant spliff-smoking space monkey in the breaks room?)...that was an experiment that people's opinion quickly brought down. Remember too that the front room is good in that the sound is much improved and for the most part, the booth gear is far more reliable too.

They just need to address the lighting/shading issues and IMO, the unfavourable traffic sense and flow (the latter is tougher as they've committed to making that room access to entrance/exit/coat check and that seems only fixable by some well placed walls)

Hope good solutions can be found regardless

No door between the bathrooms and the DJ booth is sorta gross also...

I totally agree about the VIP room and the front room. Last time I was waiting in the front room it was like a sauna and I nearly fell asleep before getting into the main room. Definitely could use some softer lighting in there too! The VIP room was real cozy and had COMFY chairs.. now it sort of looks like a cave/dungeon. Who's next on the RACK ?

i duno.. to be honest. i don't like system at all now after the renovations. it was awesome the way it was before... it was a sketchy old basement.. system! it was cool. after the renovations its was nice at first.. change, but then i really got bored of everything there. i just dont like the new setup they have, and the sound hasnt improved all that much either.

ah well... goodbye system!

FOREVER!!

I think brynne should break into system on sunday, and paint the front room while nobody is watching.
tra la la la. I just made your colour scheme better.


that would be classic.

well maybe i will break into system and paint it! and change the lights! i dont mind the new renovations,,, well i like the main room.... but,, i dont like the look of the breaks room,,, they need an airconditioner in there.. and they took out the seats! i think they should put some seats back in there... i think they should pur more seats back into system in general... the only real problem i have is the front room really.. they need to paint it and change the lighting.

I have never been to system, so I can't comment on the design, BUT I am an interior design student...

This mood they are trying to create with the red lighting, it is known as a no no in design, unless used in a space where people will be for a short period of time (like a hallway, or a bathroom). A space is suppose to make you feel happy or energetic in a club, it's not suppose to make you feel angry.

Either they hired some sketchpad designer, or they just came up with something on thier own. Obviously not effective. I want to go there now just to see it !

i agree with you 100%. the lighting is all wrong,, what kind of lighting would you suggest for people to be comfortable dancing in for a long period of time?
