thats part of my point. Also local club politics here fracture the scene and make it difficult for anyone to have the strength to break out globally. How can you when you have to worry about backstabbers at home all the time?

Not to mention the torontocentric attitude that most people here have. A lot of people in the business dont care to, or dont know how to promote themselves globally.

Canadians are not very good self promoters by nature.

oh, i liked the dirtyness of it. i liked the lasers. i liked the artwork. but then i also liked trance back then, so.... looking back, it was a bit ghetto and packed and everyone was always completely off their tits. not worthy of best nightclub status. but oh, i have some good memories.

amnesia and space for the fucking win!

pacha ibiza gets a meh but i think it should be kept on there for it's prestige in the clubbing culture.

we have a lot to offer initially. But we never capitalize on it. Either that or someone tries to take it away from us whether it be competition or government.

At the risk of sounding cheesy it truely is a lack of unity, respect and loyalty that are our biggest problems when it comes to not just the local scene, but also the world stage.

ugh, after looking at those pics i don't know how Stereo fits in there.

Stereo looks like a spot where you could be stabbed by a hobo

Maybe Opera will make the list in a year or two www.clubopera.ca


As a whole the Guv complex should be there, but not a single room demarks itself.

that's a good point which i never actually considered. taking the entire complex into context probably doesn't meet their criteria. and the Guv mainroom alone or any of those rooms alone probably doesn't cut it in terms of making that list.
