Had to start a new thread cos Walker disabled the other one!!
ummmmmmmmm...not really......all i remember is taxman n hypes set

Yeah i was wrong it was Hype i was thinkin of, they look quite similar!! Im a twat!

And sorry that we all slated the night, Im sure the event is goog its just the venue is shit and as has been said £8 is expensive for Ocean, when you can go to a real club (kinda - Smack!) for £6 with same sort of, if not more, headlining DJs!

kerry and alex

And Alex? Not really fair to Alex tho is it...

I'm sure the night is really good, its just the VENUE i have a problem with, ffs! If it was at most other places in Leam, i would go. Although £8 is a bit steep for a night in a bar...

Seems like they have some good headliners.... = D

Fucking hell Bex, u sound like Sally!

I wasn't assuming anything, I said the VENUE is shit!! lol, I'll say it again shall i? The night is probably really good (Bex is opinion taken into consideration!), i wouldn't know cos I haven't been! Point I was making before is, unfortunately, I won't ever find out, because I feel the venue lets it down and I wouldn't pay that much to go to Ocean.

End of.

Thanks for all your opinions on the club

We have tried a few places and this is the one that is working with us the most

We had 3 nights in "Kellys" which we did fill the place aswell but .....
Me sitting on the door and getting threatened with a table flying through the air is too much !!!

no one cared about us there ...

So if anyone can think of a decent place where you would go to... that will take a DnB night .. let us know!

So yeah people think £8 is alot, yeah it is, but we encourage people to come with a flyer, we give out flyers for the next event on the night now...
So your there before 10pm it is only £5

We need to charge that much, only getting 150 people through the door, just about covers our expenses ...
Yes you pay £6 for smack, but they have 500 people ... but your standing miles away from the dj's

It is not ideal, i think they should spend money on the pub, but it is not ours so we can't force them to do it.

so, back to the original question, where else is there ?

Didnt know about this and i can understand you not wanting a repeat!!

So your there before 10pm it is only £5

I dont tend to get anywhere before this time specially if the night is on till 2-3 AM!

We need to charge that much, only getting 150 people through the door, just about covers our expenses ...

So perhaps have, as peaches said, slightly cheaper DJs and MCs and more local talent until you built up more of a rep (or improve the rep that seems to be in place - wasn't what put me off at all tho), i dont know, i dont want to say anything that would be taken as insulting cos its not meant like that, but leave the BIG dJ's to :Stimulus: and showcase local talent?!!
This would make your nights cheaper and more accessible to people (least people might be more willing to pay say £2 or even perhaps some FREE nights!) who don't want/don't feel they can afford to pay £8 to get into Ocean!

You have to earn respect

Sounds cheesey, but true!

Think of it this way. J Austin and his friends put on nights involving local and up and coming DJ's. Doesn't charge much and gets the people through the door and everybody has a great time? Why do you think that is? Austin has muchos respectos in this town and everybodies love a good local mashup.

Very good point...altho have to point out that they are free nights, not cheap!

Peaches, for a start, we don't charge 40 pound a month, please get your facts right before posting.

yes we don't pay the ASR dj's all the time, but we do give them money when the nights work out well, something that you never seen in your brief stay with ASR

What some people forget is that these up and coming dj's don't get a chance to play out much, and to have a set recorded with Skibadee or Shabba, doing a b2b with phantasy and other names like that... is ti not worth it? the potential to get more bookings and get your name known, is it not worth being on ASR ?

ASR has also taken DJ's to other sets across Europe, Germany, she has got a couple to Innovation in the sun, something that not many people can do!

The nights were put on with Big DJ's and MC's to attract people, get closer to them, rather than stand miles away.. but if people want locals .. then i am sure that can be arranged. We will try that for the end of march ?

does it not interest anyone the big names ?

I help run these nights, i don't get paid, (there is a reason) but i don't ever complain, i don't get much from the nights, i know that when the nights are good, everyone is happy!! that means more to me than anything!!

Pixie, come and see me on the door on the 25th with Austin, i'll let you in for free?

I suggest stop being selfish and thinking of your bank accounts. You won't turn the Leamington heads like this.

Ok, so have you run any nights? except your birthday coming up ?
How much are you paying the dj's for that night?
You got a sound system ?
You made flyers?
You promote it anywhere other than the internet that is free ?
You have any head liners?
You hire the pub/club ?

everything costs money - It is cheaper and less hassle not to do these nights! but why do we continue.. for the ASR DJ's and MC's ... they love coming out and playing with us !!
