| haha james you would. Im going to have to agree with james on the venue thing. Granted I will admit that trexx is good in its own right but there are a lot of ppl that wont go there due to certain things. I was one of those people but only went to support friends that were playing. And Im sure there are plenty of places out there that would be useable under the right direction. |

I dont see what the issue is. So there are some gay people doing gay people stuff. There is more straight people than gay people there when there are "parties" going on.
When i was working the door for "fire" you shouldve seen how many "regulars" at trexx turned around and left when they found out what was going on there that night.
Really all in all. Trexx is just a venue to throw parties where cops dont walk around all night with flash lights making sure noone is smoking CIGARETTES (quick fixx).
If there were more clubs, who already had there shit (permits, etc.) in check. I'm sure there would be alternatives. Shit I would rather Trexx thrive on our business so that venue is secure for the next x-amount of years. |

it wont be the last bubble halloween is upstate as Mikey will be taking over the yearly plannng for the event. I'm not sure what i will be doing this time next year, possibly doing a halloween party down here in Miami, maybe working with again Mikey next year, but its safe to say the torch has been passed. |

stfu.. dont you live in DC? 
quote: Originally posted by ExploitTo say Trexx is working fine, and you don't need anything else is so wrong. There is a HUGE, AND I MEAN HUGE number of people who will not go to any party at trexx. Regardless of who is playing, who else is going, etc. Trexx is one of those venues with a stigma that will never go away. No one outside the scene will have ANY interest in attending a party there. I wont get into all of the reasons I hate Trexx, but please, do not ever try to tell me "this venue is perfect, I dont ever need to think about throwing parties anywhere else".
You choose not to go to trexx and thats cool, but the 400 plus people that showed up last year obviously had no problem with the venue.
quote:
As for finding a new venue. Yes, it is hard. Finding a location. Negotiating terms/prices. Getting permits. Every one of these can be, and usually is a huge issue. Does that mean everyone should just accept being lazy and not do any work finding a place? A venue can make/break a party/production company/etc. Having been a part of the scene down here in DC a while now, let me assure you that the venue is way more significant than most people in upstate NY realize.
just about every other venue in syracuse has been a long term failure, possible exceptions are Mezzanote & Lava which is still building is crowd base.
quote:
To wrap it up. Keep throwing parties at Trexx. That's fine. The same crowd will come out until it grows up and gets bored, and moved onto something new. Someone else though, really really should be keeping their eyes open on the side. I personally believe JUST finding a simple new venue could be huge in getting new faces into the scene. It wont do it all alone, but with the right promoting, it can.
Miami has Space, Philly Has Shampoo, Syracuse has Trexx.... |

that's why my opinion counts for extra! unbiased! :-P
I'm not sayin im necessarily right, but I do think there's wayyyy too much 'content'ism in the scene up there, and there needs to be some work. work leads to breakthroughs. breakthroughs lead to people dancing! |

Fuck the issues, I'm excited about Mikey's parties! I've seen what you can do man, and I think anything you throw at us will be killer. :) Thanks for carrying the torch!
And I am *definitely* excited to go back to Lava again. That place is TITS. |
