I like the name, I just think The Docks was fitting.
Is it going to be Sound Academy @ The Docks Ent. Complex, or what?

...reminds me of Ministry of Sound.

nope, lol

But yeah Jeff is right, it's just a name. I remember when they changed "the warehouse" to the "the koolhaus" and everyone was saying shit like "we'll still always call it the warehouse". Yeah ok. You'll be surprised at how quickly your brain replaces the old name, and that calling it by that old name is only a distant (and in my case foggy) memory. The brain is funny like that, Marketing 101.

I look forward to seeing (but moreso hearing) the reno's given the name choice.

No The Sound Academy @ Polson Pier (http://www.polsonpier.com/)

Originally posted by Djsketchbag I think they are just trying to class it up and give a new new name to compete with Circa.

definately not competing, I work at both venues now as Technical Director

I've seen posters up with the new name for over a week now.

The new name is great and the changes underway at the venue are awesome as well.

Re-launching with a new name is a great idea and a wonderful way to inject some new interest in the venue.

Thanks!

You're TA at both venues? How did you fall into that? I'm just curious as a fellow nerd.

I got asked by my Boss if I would take on setting up CiRCA in addition to my sound Academy duties to help them out and i said yes, it was that simple

Originally posted by Jeff Button I personally like the name change, but for those who don't... it's just a name. LOL Wait until you see (and hear) the real changes that come with this before jumping to any conclusions.

I don't care what they do as long as they keep Sun afternoon parties during summer on the upper part of the club starring Jeff Button

Sound Academy as a name will work well with a some of their current market, particularly those from George S Henry Academy, Sir Sandford Fleming Academy, Ursula Franklin Academy, Vaughn Road Academy, Malvern Academy, ...
