err what the hell.
some of my issues include the HORRIBLE sound at aria which would make u leave deaf.
and the fact that NO one goes there, dancing alone sucks.
sure i miss aria the way it used to be, but its been a LONG time since i had a good night there.
so I really couldnt care less about the place now.

Go back to snorting lines off your living room carpet you troll.

No that's not what I meant, and I wasn't dissing you. I understand your issues. I meant that if indeed Aria is closing, there's nothing funny and we should care about

1- nice people loosing their jobs (bouncers, staff, Djs)
2- one of our only 3 major montreal afters closing (which is a bad sign about the futur cause afters are not doing THAT good)
3- Minimum respect for the good things they have done, and many good nights.

ARIA will always be my #1, my second home & dancing temple! ... nothing will ever compare to those days when it was at its best.

i really hope it won't have to shut down. i lost my heart & soul at that place.

Thats all fine and good, but i never bashed aria in this thread until you brought this up. I mearly said stereo owns.

Aria is what helped me get into edm...Montreal is the closest major city to Burlington, and my friends and I would ALWAYS look forward to making the 1.5 hour drive up there to party our asses off. When we weren't at Aria, we'd be talking about when the next trip up was, or reminescing about the great times we had. I have met most of you guys there, and even being from out of town, I still consider it my home...there is something so familiar about it. Aria's where I heard edm for the first time live also (Ferry, "The April Night")...there is no way anyone can bash a place that has brought you such great nights. The afterhours business seems to be a very cut-throat and shortlived one...as far as I'm concerned, if one has had the staying power of more than a few years and the legacy to leave behind that Aria has, it will always be respected.

Boo, I'm sad.

i wonder who knows my passord...lol <3
wasn't me

as far as this thread goes, this debate has been going on since last year.It will close when it closes.It is the case with every club...they all have their time until it is time for no more.Even Stereo will close one day...its just the way the business is...

I might bash the club, but more out of frustration than anything else.I still will have many fond memories of the place that will never be taken away no matter what.It is sometimes hard to remain positive when a certain owner likes to act unprofessionally on certain boards.Was anyone around for the infamous jfl battle on mtl nights?You can't play your client base for suckers and expect them to just keep coming back.
The residents of the club will get jobs.(A talented dj always will)
The people working will get jobs(and possibly more tips...it must have been hard serving 6 water bottles in a night...i feel worse for bombardier employees)
The remaining faithful will find a niche or another place to call home(The return of the private eventsa at non club venues are a good sign for the scene in this city.)
It had to come one day...I chose to remember the glory days over the club losing all direction.
RIP and thanks for the great nights.

Tag you n00b, where were you in the golden years of Aria? Its soundsystem was fucking rocking, it could accomodate Techno, Trance and House, and everything in between.

Yeah dude it used to rock, It went to shit ever since JFL said he was making improvements to it. Don't ask me how that makes any sense though.

I am sad to see Aria go. I will treasure the nights I spent there back a few years ago, seeing such awesome DJs like Mauro, Ferry, and Laurent Garnier.

Also, Tag, why do you say Aria's sound system is bad? If you end up leaving with ears ringing then you should wear some ear plugs.

Didn't Aria's decline start with that stabbing that happened around Halloween 2005?
