WMC Needs to Find a New City

3 nights in a row I have been at parties that the cops have shut down due to noise.
Last night it was the massive BBC Radio 1 Party.
I'm thinking if Miami doesn't want the WMC to bring in millions of dollars from people like me, maybe it's time to find another venue.
I'm thinking Vegas. Any other suggestions? |

| Definitely couldn't agree more, although I do like Miami - it's just not friendly to the WMC scene. I came down here yesterday for the weekend and to enjoy being with friends who were attending the conference but I've never seen such shoddy reception for people who've planned for this a long time and have $$ to spend. I'm thinking Atlanta or NYC for a new venue. Sure beats the fascist police state atmosphere you get here. |

I don't think NYC would be a good spot for the winter music conference...unless you actually want to experience the W in the WMC :clown:

On Saturday, the official WMC poolparty at the Wyndham (host) hotel was shut down an hour after starting.
And this was an official freaking event!!!

I'm still not sure that Vegas has the capacity in their clubs to handle this type of event. Their clubs just aren't that big. That, coupled with the fact that Vegas is such a tourist trap to begin with, the amount of people trying to attend each event would be insane. |

| WMC vegas? there's been long speculation about it. Blame it all on the rich ppl that have moved to South Point South Beach who have gone to complain to the city.. they have started to been hard ass with loud noise for a year now... after 7 PM if you are blasting loud music from your car you get a bad ticket ... though yeah, Miami Beach police needs to do something about it... or else, we grow a mini clubbing community in Downtown....... which is actually growing. The other would b cool Ft. Lauderdale, but there arent any of the upscale clubs that are in SoBe... But Vegas?!?!... It just wouldnt survive. What atracts so many ppl to WMC is the fact that is by the beach, the vibe, the PPL, the Palm Trees, along with the music... something Vegas does not have. |

Well, go to the Seminole Hard Rock and Casino, which is a 20-30 mins drive from Downtown Miami.. very close to Hollywood/Ft.Lauderdale. Take I-95 North exit on Sheridan west.. and 441.. and you got a big ass Complex in one of this indians lands... Casino Heaven with Clubs in it, who by the way, are bringing some good talent.. Ivano Bellini spins on one of them. ;-) |
