| I just started to get into trance and raves/clubs since EDC in June. Out of all the clubs/raves I been to, nothing compares to Nikita/Circus. I'm very disappointed to hear this. The atmosphere is (was?) just plain awesome. |

this reflects more on the failure of Circus rather than Nikita...
the people behind Nikita have actually done quite well since they took over at Circus, and props to GIl, Billy, Fei Fei and everybody behind it...
yup, from Atomic Mike to Red to Nikita, its the actions of Circus management that have been an obvious hindrance to making it a great consistent night...
at the end of the day, I wish you guys well and look forward to Nikita's new venue and its objective of promoting the trance genre...
happy new year. |

Anyway, I hope things work out for you.

Arrrrg, I'm soooo sad. :(
I was ready for a great lineup and everything. So excited and I LOVE the venue. But I somehow knew Nikita was going week by week at Circus. Hopefully they can get a venue and keep the lineup!! |

| That's a real bummer. We all love that venue and it was nice to see a good group trying to make that place work again. I was looking forward to coming back from Phoenix to play there but I'll play for Nikita no matter where they host thier night. |

Sad day...:sadgreen:
My first Nikita experience at Circus was definitely one of the best nights out I ever had. Friendly people, dance floor not too crowded like Vanguard, and awesome atmosphere. :)
I know Gil was hard at work as well as the others behind Nikita. So where Nikita night goes, I will follow and bring friends. :D |

I love the venue but yesterday was kinda sad to see the venue being so empty. It was kinda sad. I can understand how hard it is to bring in people during these hard times.
The club was really pinching pennies to survive and you can really tell. No go go dancers, no decorations, and the bartenders looked like they had no ing clue what they were doing. Some of them looked like they needed cliff notes on what's supposed to go in some of the most basic drinks... and I'm not the type to make it hard on people by ordering some obscure drink with weird name.
And it was so obvious that they were under surveillance. Everything had to be measured with the shot glass because I guess they were being watched. Even then, one of the bartender in the middle was a total . I ordered a Long Island Ice Tea and he filled 3/4 of the drink from the tap, and then just squirted ONE part alcohol in there and filled up the rest with coke. I looked at him and said "are you serious man that's a Long Island" and he just said "yeah". Nice. |

Tisk Tisk... you should have went upstairs to Ernesto! He knows what is doing and knows how to make drinks well even with the bosses watching.
Side note: I am so bummed to hear about this news. The people behind Nikita worked there asses off to make it work out!!! I have a feeling that it was working with the management that made them make the decision to leave circus.
We live in such a big city that I am sure that a new venue could be found and found soon!!! |
