Yup.

Oh yeah, Lastman & Fantino.

Seriously though, actually trying to give credit for this happening to Ford, and blaming the lack of warehouse parties in the 00's on Miller?

Nice theory, except that when others tried in the recent past they were shut down before they even started. Also I didnt see any recession in the mid to late 90s.

Ford haters should really think about who entertainment's real enemy is and has been.

Hint: It's not Ford

Fantino started the process but Miller/Vaughan and company finished the job

Lastman actually changed his position after Idance but it was too late. Fantino was already on the march and Lastman left office soon after.

And people also laughed at me back in 2004/5 when i predicted the condo takeover and crackdown in the entertainment district.

Jay dude, really. The dollar was at $0.62 to the US & uemployment was recockulous then.

Also, what the fuck does this have to do with Ford?

Just let it go & enjoy the fact that we're getting something that is hopefully as close to a time machine as many of us are envisioning.

Hell, come along & I'll bring the whisky. Just drop the political bullshit and get excited one more time.





P.S. - It'll be a great fucking whisky!

The anti-rave thing started in 2000. Miller didn't assume office until 2003, after laws were already changed and no one cared about that stuff anymore anyway.

Also, please enlighten us as to the anti-warehouse parties and anti-nightlife bylaws supposedly enacted by Miller.

Where exactly have you been for the last decade? Have you seen the crackdowns? Have not seen the news? Hell even a documentary was made on this. And this was all mid to late part of the last decade. The last kick at the can for Miller was when he passed the harmonized bylaws that effectively zoned new nightclubs out of existence. That was about a year ago. Lets also talk about Vaughan and his past influence on the police board and the executive committee. The homeless shelter put in the middle of the entertainment district. Ask any club owner or party promoter and they will fill you in. Oh and the sidewalk tax they tried to put into place. Also thanks to miller, you can no longer advertise for nightclubs on the streets (i wish someone would challenge this illegal bylaw in the supreme court)

the politics of dancing is what originally made me political. The relaxing of the nightlife crackdown outside of trinity spadina has a lot to do with who is governing it. Also, There was no recession in the mid to late 90s. It was actually a boom time for us.

Ill accept the whiskey offer! Im always up for a good time. Thats why i fight for the right to have a good time

See you there
