LOL

anyways morphalo that was the longest damn post ive seen in a vancouver thread, but i agree with every bit.... LOL slavic parties (im not just perfect, im serb too )
i believe you NEED security or else police will shut it down. maybe even a permit, unless its in like a community center hall. which IS an idea..? if we keep it real quiet, like in a warehouse, should be no need. i doubt the Pit Pub in ubc will work, im underage too, but i'll head down and ask how much it costs for a night.
so it looks like "all" we really need is lights and sound, and a venue haha. decks and mixer etc. is no problem. BYOV. hehe
hopefully we wont have to throw it in like chilliwack or somethin, vancouver would be awesome for getting ppl to come..

unfortunately im fucked for cash right now too.. we could do fund-raising? somehow (?????) more ideas needed, good start guys

i know a few big guys too, so looks like security wont be a prob
as for $$, maybe if we charge our 'guests' a small ticket price, we would be able to cover at least part of the expenses.
fund raising sounds interesting, when do we start selling chocolates? j/j
also, i remember my school dances were done by master plan, and from what ive heard, theyve good on rates. and some of you prolly heard of youth week, anyways, we had another production company do a dance for us for a 'fare' fee. they were cheaper for us, and they are a bit better than master plan. ill try and talk to the girl who knows the guy from that company.
just so you know right away, you cant do a dance in new west, unles you wanna do it in queensborough or you wanna call it a 'concert'
ill talk to some ppl that might be able to help us with the location, but now im going to sleep =)

btw, dont count on me helping with security, im kinda small

yeah lets do it New West in queensborough park
there is like a little outdoor stage anyway, I always wanted to make an open air thing like some big events in europe
that would be cool, it would be close so I wouldnt have to drive
spanish cultural centre is out of the question cause its way too lame...

I'll bring my pile of illegal CD's and piece of shit players
so I'll be your CD DJ, just so we have diversity
how old are you patticus, if you are at least 18 should be alright its close enough...
and apri_peel sounds perfect for the door she will be bouncing off bad ladies that are trying to crash the party
so we have more than enough security I think
just some cheap ass venue and some sound and lights and we are happening
any of you went to APEX ?

I don't think an outdoor venue would be a very good idea, I still think a hall is the best way. You could just tell the city that you are throwing a private birthday party with music and dancing. outdoor party you would need permits and shit plus there is alot less control of the party. The party must be in control at all times, because it will reflect poorly on the promoter. I also don't think the party will be that big anyway because I dought people will want to see a bunch of DJ's playing their first big party. (I shouldn't speak for everybody, but a played a couple of house parties but thats it)Or maybe we should advertise Dumonde to be there, he he

oh yeah, bring it down to new west baby
i know ppl who work at the city hall, pull a few strings here, a coupla there, and what do you know, weve got a party hehe j/k
on the serious side, i think if we do something in new west and call it a private bday party, there shouldnt be a prob, in fact, renting a place shouldnt be as expensive as for example bby or vancouver.
at first i was kinda thinking of the high school's gym, but we prolly wont be able to stay there too long; or theres also arenex, or the youth center.
sorry guys i dont really know van so i cant suggest a lot

Ok...it really seems like we got somthing rolling here.

I know some big guyz 2, We got gear and music.

I think that renting a hall would be a good idea. Usualy they have lights already set in most halls...and speakers are usualy their 2. So if we look for a hall like that, we would be set rite? We might need a few more lights and maybe a extra pair of speakers to bring it 2gether but other than that we would be fine...no need for permits etc... whad u think?

people, people...
there is quite few of us in New West here ha ?
nice !
I say, we find some nice hall here and make the earth shake
we could make one down there in Paramount on Columbia st.
we rent the place for the night but leave the strippers inside to add to the atmosphere


but seriously, I dont know any places in N. West available for such an event...

well if we need some extra speakers i have some decent ones (a couple)

nothing rich tho, haha

they're like 3 feet tall
