Hey Donnie, do you remember a few months back before WMC or after, not sure when that Space had a power issue on a Saturday. That same exact day Nocturnal and Eden did not go through that power issue and all the club goers that were @ Space went next door and kept partying.
Just curious weren't you @ Gryphon this past Friday? If so, how do you know if there were F.P.L. trucks in front of the building. That's unless if you have a "counter surveillance system" attached somewhere around the outskirts of 11th st. Or MAYBE the bums give you the inside scoop on what's going on every night, who knows.... |
Yes I was at Gryphon but I have very good friends that live in downtown and kept me in the loop, also a couple of industry people that kept me in the loop also, and I know a couple very good friends that are promoters for afterhours that filled me in too. None of them saw FPL trucks. So it wasn't snooping. I was trying to figure out if Omid was gonna play or the show was done completely.
Yes I do remember that, every club on that block, including Gold Rush and all the street lights and stop lights were completely out. Nocturnal/Eden was in the clear because they have a generator that kept that club running, and that info is from a great industry source who did all the electrical in that building. I'll back my info up with facts here also, just so everyone can see, gotta make sure my gossip is straight lol. Kudos to Nocturnal for having a generator
Picture I took from Miami Ave and 11st the night the power went out, Space was doing the around the world party or something like that, I remember bc I wanted to see David Tort.
I'm not trying to ruin any of your events, just stating facts. Actually looking out for you throwing the event, to make sure you have a back up plan if something was to go down. Kind of like the Karu and Y situation when they got shut down on a Friday night and they moved that party over to Mekka.
So in the end, keep a back up plan because you never know when a sinking ship will go down.
I will give it up to Glenn over there, that guy figures out a way to get around all this shit. I'm hoping they make it through the summer because there is a couple events I would like to see.

Actually Chief I don't work on Fridays, only Saturdays but I have been helping out with the Friday nights, well because in all honesty they had fallen off, so I was asked to help with them and it seems that since the beginning of May our Fridays have definitely made a big come back. We only had that one big booking, A&B. We had the myself and the Space boys in there, packed house, Oscar packed house this past Friday and the week before A&B we did the Brazilian Party that was slammed too. I don't bash events I look out for other people putting on parties because I know exactly what it feels like to lay a couple grand for an event and lose your money, it sucks!
