I've never been one for negativity - seriously I've been nothing but positive and supportive until about now - but when you become disheartened by certain situations and happenings that it affects what you love - shouldn't you say something?
Yeah I'll keep it out east, don't worry. So when I'm back in Van soon enough I'll be that much better at steering clear of it!

The scene isn't so much greater out east per se; there are pluses and minuses to every city. But what matters to me, the people, out east seem to just be themselves, down to earth (not way too cool or whatever you wanna call it) but maybe I haven't ran into the s yet.
And really why would my comments even matter/mean anything Sean - if you had no idea what I'm talking about? And I'm not referring to directly you either. But honestly who cares, don't worry about it man. I forgive and forget easy. After all, it's Just a girl talking. |

see, the way this night works is it's not really there to make money and to attract hordes of people. it wouldn't matter if the night was promoted because the people at places such as fnk and clubvibes probably wouldn't even go to something like this.
sean does this because for the love of music. he's never been the type of guy to play the latest mp3s that he has just downloaded off limewire, and frankly i dont think the other two guys are like that either. |
but wouldn't it be great if more people were included, therefore telling more of their friends, making more people feel welcome and aware, times that by 2 of their friends, and so on, and then just maybe, a better trance and progressive scene will result slowly but surely. but this is just crazy talk isnt it!
when a night is limited to exclusivity in small numbers, i.e. who can and does spin there I say there is limited potential for growth -to the night or the scene it falls under. |

We do the best we can with all things considered....
For the exception of the snow fall about two weeks ago, there has been a pretty good attendance, I definately have been seeing more and more interest almost on a weekly basis, and hats off to Sean for doing a bang up job for promoting on the radio show as well. But ya, as previously stated, it is very hard to attract people to something like this during a week night (I've also seen a lot of established clubs in Vancouver on the same night which barely get anyone coming out, even on a top 40 night which is supposidly a no brainer for a promoter to get people in mass groups to come down...Does that mean the hip hop scene in Vancouver blows? No, because the main nights, when it matters, Friday and Saturdays, they pretty much have the place packed like a can of tuna).
If you wanted to look at a fair comparison, Saturday would be an ideal night to put it to the test...last month and a half, the club has been busier than a brick layer in Bay Ruit. |

I am just voicing what is on my mind. If you think its harsh and you are taking it personally, thats too bad. Keep enjoying those lame 15 person trance parties since apparently they are fun because of how intimate the setting is. |
i never said the night is fun because of how intimate the setting is
if you had known how the night started, perhaps you would not need to resort to sarcasm
this is not directed at anyone in particular, but i've been seeing a lot of critisism on the boards that has no reasoning. people are simply saying 'this sucks, that blows' without saying why they think that or even trying to be part of the solution and maybe suggest something constructive and doable.
but! we should get out of sean's thread and take this discussion elsewhere. sorry, sean, carry on :) |
