Awesome news. I really didn't like what happened to the DJ booth. I remember that only being to see the bobbing head was one of my major beefs. Glad this is changed!

SOUND ---> Many have been wondering who is doing the sound and what it is going to be. I do not want to spill the beans because that would be no fun. Truth of the matter is...there are already 3 clubs in this city with a Dynacord System...of all 3 of them...you all know which one sounded the best by far...the one that was at 270. Well, through a lot of research and relentless interrogation of a whole wack of sound people we have found out that there are a number of better options than the Dynacord for that room. In the end, that room is an accoustical temple and will not be rivaled by any room in this city...this I guarantee. More on the sound in the coming weeks. ;-) |

I'm glad to see you're not rushing into things. I think this is a very good idea. If New Years this year is anything like it was last year (and I'm sure it will be better), people will be talking about it for months. The buzz from New Years will be a great way to get things started with a regular night.
I'm glad to see some of these questions finally got answered. Unfortunately, it hasn't subdued any of my anticipation, but has increased it tenfold! I can't wait to hear more. |

Okay okay, I can't take it anymore...I am so excited that I can't help but fill you in on a few things that have been happening with the 270 space. There have been many questions about many things and I am going to give you just a little bit of insight as to what is happening over there at Dundas and Spadina...but not too much info because that would just spoil the surpises that we have in store. For starters, here are a few things that you can expect to see on November 5th:
- Brand new functional coat check capable of holding more coats than legal capacity will allow.
- A clean, fresh, and new look for the bathrooms upstairs. Some new finishes in the bathrooms downstairs...and most importantly brand new toilets, faucets, and plumbing that actually works in all of the bathrooms! We are taking the sketch right out of the palce.
- A modified, sleaker, better, less obstrusive dj booth with better sight lines and a customized interior. You will also have a better view of the DJ and will be able to see more than just a head bopping around the booth...definitely a more interactive and warm vibe. :-)
- Brand new finishes throughout the space including fresh paint and really cool floor finishings.
- ***the stars mean mucho importanto...apparently the air conditioning and heating ducts are a mess and they look like they have not been cleaned for 20 years...no wonder there were problems with the A/C...so needless to say that is as good as sorted!
Okay, so a couple more things that you are likely wondering about...the sound, the name of the space, and the regularity of the space.

NAME ---> This is still up in the air...WHAT DO YOU THINK WOULD BE A COOL NAME FOR THE SPACE? We will wanted to take our time with the name just as we are doing with the space...a little TLC...so we will launch the new name and finished product all at once. This is a whole new thread...but we will start it here and see how far we get.
Well, I hope that these answer some of the questions you have been asking. All that I can tell you is that I honestly believed that Boa was the best place in the city and now I can honestly promise you that things in T.O. are about to be taken to the NEXT LEVEL. ;-)
I look forward to seeing you all on the dance floor!

Carey, man, I think I speak for absolutely everyone here when I say we can't wait for this place. It's gonna be a complete honour to bust it with ya in a club like this is gonna be. |

what gave you that impression?
| quote: | | On the Alpha note there is a second alpha system sitting in a warehouse in mississauga (not Boa's , that is in another warehouse) that i know about , so this could potentialy be used there !! |
If there is a brand new one sitting in a warehouse (which we also know) why wouldn't we go out and get it if it where the best thing for the room?

What about just "270 Spadina"? I kind of like the name the way it is. It has character.
Club names are usually stupid anyways. The "Guvernment"? Wtf is that? :stongue: |
