    I reckon we cud get at leats 300 from this board-get all the old skool jocks in-easy peasy cheap night and all-i'll look into it, maybe the tivoli would have enuff room for all the whhelchairs and white canes :D
    nah but i'm serious-a decant venue will cosy abour 1500. plus another 200 for flyers and press-so if we are up for it (i mean lets not take a profit, lets go for it) coz there is no point charging in loads of dosh, when us DJ's are happy with a few yolks! seriously though, if we are on for it why not?!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,754 ✭✭✭bohsboy

    there's a certain person off this site, when a gig come up, he seems to be getting married and thats every gig, must have a lot wives!!! :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,729 ✭✭✭francois


    SFX is gone I think, Tivoli could be a spot, there are lots of east european gigs on there at th moment


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,936 ✭✭✭stomprockin

    The Mansion House might be biting off more than one could chew :D Anyway I hear the Bouncers in that place are real fussy about their clientele these days :) What about Leinster House or Dublin Castle? Ha ha :)

    Yeah it's definitely gone. I recently priced the services for the redevelopment of the site.

    Guess what's going there in it's place. Yeah you guessed it.....A sh1tload of apartments. Now there's a strange one for Dublin. :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,936 ✭✭✭stomprockin


    how about the bottom of the hill finglas?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,916 ✭✭✭Alkers


    Might be able to work something out with the Tivoli, know someone who is in on the ownership of it. I don't have the time to organise anything at the moment though as my exams are coming up but if someone does the main organising and people want that as a venue I'll see what I can do.

    Count me in too ... and about 6 mates of mine who would jump at the chance.

    Its been ages since I had a good night/morning/night again experience.

    Think the last time was about 3 years ago when I was in the POD, then a party, then The Claddagh (early house off Capel St .. now called The Cameo), then Chancery Inn, then Out on the Liffey (music pumping at 1pm on a Saturday afteronn), then that pub at the top of Capel St/Bolton St that is now an offie and then onto The Legal Eagle to hear the sounds of the lads from 1210... god I was in bits for about 3 days after that.

    Done it every weekend for years mate allbeit different places, used to be like water off a ducks back to me,for example a typical Friday nite would involve going to the pub meeting some people do "do some business" heading into either Sides, Ormond Multimedia Centre, Temple Of Sound, the Waterfront,The System, The Asylum a serious amount of quality clubs to choose from back then when club finished there was never any shortage of parties back then, 7 am head to the earlyhouse more often than not barnstormers off Pearse St a mental place but always some craic, stay there until the afternoon, leave, pick up more supplies, meet some people to "do more business" back to the pub and back to club again,repeat all over again, every weekend sometiomes from Thursday until Tuesday, Dub 1 will testify to that.

    nowadays it would take me over a week to recove if i attempted that :eek: :D
