i second that, but only if it's not at Millenium :P

yaaaaa. what have they been thinking with the Millenium bookings? what a bad choice especially for such experimented party organizers.... iiish.

Simply because club owners are not making enough money when they book those big Djs on regular nights. Club owners make their money from selling alcohol and as u may know unfortuantely people tend to think that Electronic music only goes with drugs. Too bad for the 9-3 crowd!!!

An after-hours will charge minimum 20$ to get in if not more and it makes no money on alchohol sales (obviously). Then how can a club that would also charge 20$ cover + profit from alcohol sales make less money than an after-hours? Is it cause of crowd capacity?

The ideal would be a club that closes at 6-8AM (and still sell alcohol at these times) like in Europe but still have the best DJs start no later than 1AM. Because obviously, nobody goes out before 11-12 here in Montreal and a DJ set is usually not longer than 3 hours! So good enough for people who want to go home at 4AM and the opening hours are long enough for people who want to keep going!

Legend tried doing that.... failed miserably. But what if a club like Tribe (on Thursdays) did that? A club that is already known for good bookings and solid nights? And by all means, if Circus wants to stay open till noon the next day why not, but have the best DJs play at a reasonable hour!!
