The concept is hilarious, but the club is stunning!
When I first heard about this, I pictured Jungle
First floor = Rock theme
Second Floor = Wood theme
Third Floor = Grass Theme

| I went there for my birthday, it was nice, the music was top40 mixed in with some house and older (1990s) hiphop (on the top floor). The only thing I didn't like was everyone was trying to sell something, giving out business cards and crap. I don't do much clubbing in Toronto, is this a common occurrence at other clubs? |

| Can't be more pretentious than C Lounge or Ultra! At least they have a pretty cool theme that you are paying for. |

I have never really experienced selling through business cards.
I get the odd business card for the purpose of receiving their number, but that's the extent.
You don't do much clubbing in Toronto??? That's a shame, you should get out more ;)

Totally.
I would check it out simply because it's completely unique to Toronto, or at least to my knowledge.
I don't necessarily dig that scene, obviously, but it's worth the venture. |

I got a card for 50% off designer glasses and another one for some clothing store, maybe they saw what I was wearing and thought I needed some style. :p |

The venues top notch.. A room for the "models & bottles", as some would refer (wood), a room for the beat cravers who want to hide in the darkness (rock) and a place to smoke, chill out and mingle (grass). Most importantly the operating owner (who typically are the ones that matter) happens to be a tre-cool guy who use to manage EXIT- many years back fostering a large part of the electronic music in dance clubs and Toronto after-hours, many years back
Some of your favorites, Sean Miller, Dj ADDY, Nathan Barato all people a part of its history.
This past weekend, ROCK WOOD just held the 10year exit reunion party, with a bunch of faces from the scene old and new, and the vibe was top notch.
The venues pretty and sometimes rocking out to beats in a space that is dressed is needed. Rock holds a tight vibe for those that need it a bit darker.
Grass - the patio, which now is (tis the season) used as the smoking patio, (warmed by heat laps) is place to mingle for moment or two.
A fan of the venue, the management, the owners and the bartenders... obviously on your visit make sure its your kind of Jam.
Long live beautiful spaces, and creative places!! |
