Yeah it's next door. Have you seen it lately? It's a huge pit now, probably for underground parking. |

yeah, saw a couple weeks ago. you're most likely right... if they weren't adding parking... it would only make the parking situation on Vine Street worst. LOL |

that lot next to Avalon may just end up being a parking garage...
Sam Nazarian who owns Privilge, Area, Hyde, the Lobby, 50% of the Abbey, etc., has been planning to open up a big club on Hollywood Blvd near Ivar. The City of LA told him he needs additional parking so he was buying a lot on Vine to convert into a parking garage to be used for valet to his club...i thought that is what is going on next to Avalon.
now this was a good 6 months ago when i was told this and I know Sam was getting tired with the delay with his project approvals and has thought about walking away from the deal....
on a slightly related topic does anyone know if Crobar is still supposedly going into the Fox Theater on Hollywood? i have not seen any work on that venue at all... |

last night I was standing in the wrong guestlist line (my fault though, didn't realize the Honey lounge had it's own entrance) and the guy STILL let me in FOR FREE. Why? Because I kept my cool, treated him with respect, made some small talk, and remembered some little fact he told me a few months ago (something about being an actor). All I did was ask how his acting was going and if he had any projets lined up. The whole convo took 5 mins and he gave me 3 tickets lol. |
lol thats not how its supposed to work though :wtf: |

I dont think the Avalon crowd is ever gonna change, i think its just gonna get worse....if only the walls in Avalon could talk....damn Ive personally been partying there for 3 years, and the change in crowd in the past 3 years has been immmmense....I think Vanguard is gonna be the new washer-central pretty soon...as soon as the head E-tard snaps out of his roll and realizes that Vanguard is being promoted by Giant now and no Avalon anymore.....lol......and has soon as the head Maytag realizes, all the little GE's and Kenmore's will follow him...
anybody wanna take a guess at who the head MAYTAG is...? |

Any club with an expertly tuned Funktion One puts any club to shame. All the best clubs in Ibiza have a Funktion One and it's ing spectacular. The bass hits really clean (hardly any reverb) and the mids and highs don't get drowned out by bass. It's fantastic.
Anyway, personally, I don't understand what everyone's problem with Avalon is. I've never had any issues with security at Avalon, and I have a feeling that people that do have issues are bringing it on themselves. Same with the line, never had any problems. last night I was standing in the wrong guestlist line (my fault though, didn't realize the Honey lounge had it's own entrance) and the guy STILL let me in FOR FREE.

i understand how these can be nonissues for you if you're a regular there, you're accustomed to the process and you know your way around the velvet rope, but from an outsider's perspective--say an out-of-towner, new-in-towner or the sporadic clubber--and probably the majority of the people who walk into the club, they have to deal with what i'm talking about. i got lucky the last few times i went with you guys where we all cut into the beginning of the line and made it in in under 30 min, but otherwise i would have had to file into the back like everyone else. and did you notice how out of hand the front of the line gets when that happens? the line for lawler was literally a clump of people up front that straightens out in to a line at the end. maybe my perspective is skewed since i only go to avalon on some of their biggest nights. i'll shut up now :o |

I don't think there will be major Washing Machine's at Vanguard.. unless it's Tiesto/PVD night or something.
-Vanguard has tight ass security, greasing the doorguy doesn't work as much as it does at Avalon. Besides, at Avalon.. no one searches you..that's always a bonus for them.
-Vanguard ends at 4AM. That's wayyy too early for Washing machines to stop partying.
And remember, Washing Machine's actually pull a lot more weight at Avalon than you think. They may not know the promoters or even what deejays play..., but they know the CLUB OWNERS/staff. which obviously will always outrule the promoters anyday.
Washing machines don't really bother me..plastic ho's and g'd out meatheads do though. |
