Chill out people, the Atlanta scene is fine. Do some research, you'll see a lot of the big names are overseas doing tours at the moment. There is still plenty of local shit going on. Go support local dj's and stfu plz, k thnx.

Actually... since this thread has been posted, I've actually noticed there isn't a DAMN THING that has gone on here, unless you count dubstep shows at shady venues. It is kind of weird that we're halfway through January and can't talk about any great party within the last month. Or any coming up...

You haven't gone to any, so how could you talk about great parties

No offense, but calling a venue shady and not even having been there is sort of silly.

Might be silly, but if it's right, it's right!

yeah, January is historically bad for the ATL. Can't find a thing to do tonight! First time it's not super cold this year, even if it's wet out, but can't find anyplace worth getting up and out for!

Right...so I'm guessing you feel a lot safer in clubs that have already had problems like shootings?

Always a different excuse it seems.

Those damn college kids get all cranked up on E and pull out their pistols and start shooting to the rhythm of the lasers at Opera, huh?

Don't get all whiny because your dubstep events are at questionable places compared to other shows. It's not why I don't go to them. I'm a shady guy myself after all. I just don't enjoy dubstep except on rare occasions.

I also bring relevant techno, but the music is not the point

If you thoroughly enjoy a type of music and you don't want to go because the venue is "sketchy" (even though, yes there have been shootings at Opera) then you are missing out

There's probably been a shooting at every club/bar in Atlanta. It's one of the reasons the city has to close at 3am now.

Can you send me a link to when there was a shooting after a trance show?

Only if you link an article to one after a dubstep event

Sorry a lot of you feel like the scene for edm in this city sucks. I know what it's like to not be able to regularly see music you enjoy. If you don't have the money to invest in shows, you can always contact your local club. Contact Opera. Contact Primal. Contact Dreams. Whatever clubs you do like seeing music...tell them what you want to hear.

There haven't been shootings at

Graveyard
The earl
Mjq/du
The mark/karma/filter
El bar
Bazzaar

There have been shootings at
Wetbar
Opera
Dreams

You're right, they weren't after trance events, but let's be honest, what is really more shady about one venue and not another. If you live in fear, then maybe partying in a metropolitan city shouldn't be your #1 priority.
