| i think the problem rich is that there really isnt a market these days for the so called progressive acts from the past. thats why they always have to be booked at a place that has a built in crowd. |

| i never understood how sf, with such a vibrant electronic scene, stumbles and falls so hard on that south american progressive sound. there's so much untapped potential there imo. |

dunno man, did our best to push the best ones trough back in the day. i think overall people just get tired of a sound and move on to something fresh. except for those crazy breaks kids. hehe |

| I'm swear I saw 16 Bit Lolitas in SF back like 6 or 7 years ago :p that part of my life is a bit of a blur since I drank so much back then, but I'm kinda sure I did and I think they might've played trance back then? |

! why do they have to be debuting at one of the most venues in the city?! supperclub has the worst promotion, worst bar wait, worst sound, worst lighting, worst music-oriented crowd. the last breakthrough headliner i saw there, ewan pearson, was a disaster. not even promoted at all. this is a ! i would much rather supperclub sponsor a 16 bit lolitas boat/park/offsite party. i've been asking spundae for years to bring them to sf... this is what happens when it doesn't!
and to add to the trainwreck promotion that is superpitcher night, paradise lounge just posted the event date on going.com for a saturday, where the bio says it's on a wednesday and the promoter posted a flyer saying it's on a friday... and of course, different opening hours. |
I love love love 16bit lolitas and i've been waiting for someone to bring them back to SF! Couldn't agree more about Supperclub though, it's a horrible venue for EDM acts. It's like a f*ckin science lab in there.. really bright lighting, white walls, white everything. Mezzanine, Mighty, or the End Up (sunrise set 4-8am) ;) would be a way better place for them to play. |

there's so much in that club that deters from the experience of enjoying music. any room in temple would be a better fit, and i don't even like that place! i don't know who does the bookings at supperclub or why nothing they do is ever promoted, but given their insistence on trying to showcase world-class music sporadically, they could instantly benefit from more bartenders, less walls and a general ability to transition from a go-out-to-be-seen dinner lounge to an actual club. |
