What type of event u gotta be more clear?

What type of event u gotta be more clear?

a club style event, where dj/muzik wise the focus is on the old skool.

[DJDeadbeat]

Why focus on only the old? It basically is saying goth, post-punk and the like are dead genres?

Cinema Strange, Editors, Strip Mall Seizures, New Thrill Parade, Deep Eynde, Sixteens, etc. How about a GOTH night in general?

i would like to do an old skool event because i want to do a night reminiscent of the club nights i used to go to when i was young growing up in nyc.

they would play wax trax stuff,ministry,puppy,sisters,fla,xymox,leatherstrip,meat beat,siouxsie,bauhaus,nitzer ebb,etc. plus some 80's like soft cell "sex dwarf",stephan duffy "kiss me",etc.

[DJ Nocker]

i have a few venues in mind.

it's unfortunate that so many people dislike the labyrinth or i would do it there.

another issue is most people will not deviate from their programming that directs them to go to city club every saturday, so that leaves friday. the tough part is finding a venue that will be friendly towards a "goth" crowd, especially on a weekend night. i want to avoid a venue that has a lot of local customers. my expierence in the past is almost every time the locals will be rude/harass the people that come out.

there's a venue called the village idiot in detroit (eastside),it's literally across the street from grosse point.

i just had a drum & bass event there last saturday. it is a decent venue, 1 room has a small stage & dancefloor for 100 people (packed. the other room has the bar,tables,and typical bar games (darts,foozeball,pool) and the sound system in there is pretty good.

is the far eastside too far of a drive???

would people prefer it being in downtown detroit?

[Homicidalheathen]

I like it

FT's Bar & Grille on south bound Gratiot in Roseville would be a cool place to host this,most if not all ppl that go there are cool.and Fridays thew place is usually dead,IMO I think it would be a perfect location.

It'd be perfect because it's right next to my house.

[Nienna]

This sounds like a great idea!

[perception7]

You should try to talk to some people from Luna. It's one of the best venues in the area for sound & lights.

[jadnifer]

Sounds like a cool idea. Keep us all updated to when and where its gonna be.

FT's didn't work out. it is a bit too small (no dancefloor)

any other recomendations for venues???

how about Mephistos?

if you think FT's had a small dance floor, i wouldnt try mephistos either.

i was being generous, FT's does not have a dancefloor at all.

mephisto's is small, but that is a good thing. i do not expect tons of people to come to an old skool night.

hell, 50 people would fucking rock. lol.
