i'm also finding that the drive to toronto is becoming more and more of a deterrent to wanting to go out as i'm not from the area and the time i do get to myself is few and far between |
I feel pretty much the exact same. I'm from Cambridge, so it's a decent amount of driving time there and back just for a club. I don't do that much during the week now because of work, so the weekends when I do have time to just hang out, I want to, instead of spending my nights in a club.
I didn't really party or anything in Highschool, so when I turned 19 and went to my first club ever, I started making up for not partying in Highschool I guess, and went out a lot.
When I do go now, which isn't that often, I want to leave by 3am, and I'm just bored of everything I guess. I've had my share of "clubbing". I like to go out now and then, but like a lot of people are saying, it's just to go hang out and have fun times with friends. If they plan to stay late then I don't go anymore, because the times I do go now, I don't want to be there past 3am at all lol. |

You guys drive from out of town? I can't even get my ass in gear to get on a streetcar. :haha:
Isn't driving home a concern or do you stay over? |

both. and both are not fun.
if i drive home i have to leave no later, than 2 or 3 - otherwise i'm taking my life in my hands. i've had some scary drives home.
otherwise, i have to stay over - and then the whole next day is a write off because you don't even wake up until the afternoon, at which point you don't want to do anything but watch tv. not to mention trying to park your car overnight in toronto - barf. |

Montreal isn't that good either, especially with Stereo closed. I would still move to Montreal because I love the city more than from the party aspect, but with Stereo closed, Montreal is in a weird position.
Case in point, when people are booking the caliber of artists like David Morales and Victor Calderone at MILLENNIUM, then you know the city has problems. Saw VC @ that spot 2 weeks ago and it was so brutal! The club is in a MALL...A MALL...in the suburbs right next to a Zellers. The soundsystem is terrible. The crowd is suburban...with no interest in who the headlining DJ is. Opening DJ is playing hip hop remixes. A bright club with go go platforms. Horrible. That club sets Montreal back big time...
As for Toronto, I think there are waaaaaaaay too many new locals being booked, not because they are any good at playing music, rather they can bring out a crowd and some places are slow so the owner is cool with booking what I call, "promoters that spin". There's a lot of promoters that spin in this city, calling themselves DJs and it's driving me crazy.
I'm not knocking all new talent, don't get me wrong, but there was just this explosion of new DJs getting booked in some pretty good venues. Some people haven't even paid dues, aren't technically sound, etc. I don't want to hear someone that is hooked up spin, I want to see someone talented, or at the very least, someone who knows what they are doing...
With the age of computers mixing for people and facebook invites it's only going to get worse in some aspects. People inviting me out to see so and so spin and I'm like "who?" And this person is one of the headliners???
In the same time, I think Toronto has a better (talking established wise) scene then New York and Montreal. I travel to Montreal often and am very up to date with New York, but we still have it better than those places right now. Pacha NYC, ugh...Millenium, Montreal...yikes...we at least have Guvernment and CiRCA...and look at October coming up...retarded, retarded parties on the agenda... |
