Atlanta TA's: give me some feedback on my idea
 
Dj SHO
Sounds good to me.

I'd be happy to spin at the party and help out with other things. I'm sure if the party does go down, we won't have a problem finding Djs. There are always more Djs than needed.

I could donate some sound as well. Nothing special, but I think it would be enough to satisfy a crowd of 100 or less.

Put me on the list and let me know if it gets past the tentative stage. If it's done right, this party would probably be one of the better ones of the year. And I think we could keep it legal enough so it wouldn't get shut down earlier. We just have to be smart about everything and lay down some basic rules for the party. If you break the rules, you get shipped back to the main land....:stongue:

Well its late April, so if this thing is gonna go down we probably need to start planning it. So I'm bumping this thread.

Right now, the real problem is getting busted. An island party like that is pretty much impossible to hide, since DNR is always out in force during the summer. My current idea anyways is to get a long stretch of beach, and some helpful folks with long, tall houseboats. Park them parallel to the shore, blocking view of the party from the outside, also blocking some sound (while I'm not too concerned about sound... it will carry far, but would rarely be heard over a boat engine). So, things would have to be kept pretty low profile. Keep lighting down to bonfires and such. I'll also look into the laws on island use/parties.

Another issue to think about: Camping on the beaches/islands is illegial and would get things broken up instantly. But hopefully, anyone who comes would be tough enough to stick it out all night long - though this kind of ruins the possibility of having a 2-3 day little island vacation out there (how ing cool would that be though? non stop raving on an island on the lake for 36 hours :D gotta figure out how to make it happen).

Also, we need equipment. Anyone who can bring decks/mixer, speakers, wires, BOATS, or whatever, post back.

So, anyone else who would be down for this and can help plan just reply here.

Yeah, I'm thinking June 25/26 as a tentative possibility, or maybe mid July otherwise.

I've been reading up a bit on the laws - even fires of any kind are prohibitied now, after several islands were apparantly burned completely. This must have been recently changed, or they simply didn't/don't bother to enforce it, or we just got lucky.

They also crack down hard on beach camping (though specifically permit sleeping on beached boats), but I don't see this as being much of a problem, if we just arrive in the evening and leave in the morning. Still, it kind of eliminates the possibility of a 2-3 day long non stop party (or my plan to line the beach with Tiki torches :D ).

I'll talk to some people I know who live in houseboats/visit the lake frequently, they probably know the name of the game better than anyone. If all else fails we could just get a group of us out there during the day time, a grill, some decks and speakers, and have a beach day.

Btw, you can read up on lake/island laws and such here (section 28, island management)
