Ya know what they shoulda done to get more attendance -- 18+!!! Clubs can't do anything about ages cause it's state laws and you can't fight the government, but places like theatre venues and show venues should find out how in the hell to work 18+ shows!!! I would have definitely been there and probably a LOT more people if it would have been 18+! That's the biggest crap I've seen recently, but whatever....

No offense to you, but I much prefer it when its NOT 18+ but thats just me.

"I’m a dance floor favorite? Great! I would say the passion that I feel for the music I buy and the honesty with how I play it. I play the records I love not the ones that simply work. I’ve never taken the easy music option (which would make me a lot more money by the way) but chosen to push people a little. I try to draw people in a new direction slightly and expand their taste a little more than other DJ’s." - Lee Burridge

well yea I can understand that you don't like the "stupid little kids" but don't you feel bad for the 18 year olds (and younger for that matter) like me that are knowledged in trance/electronica and just want to go see and listen to the DJ!?

Yeh but at the same time we were all underage at one point. It sucks balls to miss crap like that, but its all the cooler when you finally hit 21. Plus theres always less of a hassle when everyone has to be drinking legal - ie they let you leave and come back in.

Maybe it isn't really the clubs/venue's fault at all, is what I see but rather our crappy government's fault for creating laws back in the 1700's that had stupid crap like no drinking under 21, unlike every single other country in the world, and now stupid laws that force clubs and venues to not allow people to come in or out or do certain stuff like that... It's not there fault that they have to abide by the rules and laws that our country's government has created

well actually, as late as the 1970s 18 yr olds could still drink. Wyoming was the last state to legally allow that age (tho places like NOLA make the law somewhat redundant).

how does the govt enforce drinking ages? by withholding highway funds if you disobey!

its shitty, but not some archaic thing out to fuck you. sure, the religious undertones contained within the law might be unsettling, but then again you can always visit other countries. countries where there is no drinking law - or others that maintain much more expensive or restrictive policies. and i know that drinking may not just be what you are after, but you can draw parallels with openness to drinking and these kind of parties|

AFAIK the drinking age limits were put into place during the 70's...not when they wrote the constitution.

Originally posted by beatport Yes, you will still be able to get upstairs even if you're under 21. And there's a bouncer at the top of the stairs too (Ashton) - make sure to let him know you're with TA so he will let you in up there. Unfortunately, no shots for you, sorry! But still, you should come to say hello & have a red bull or something

WoW! Thanks for the invite Liz, can't wait for the show!
