omg you guys are worse than old women. the guy offered up his own table to people here and you guys piss on him....


personally, i think its more likely i will make this event as i dont think i will make the trip to miami this year, damn new house and responsibilities!

btw TABLE SERVICE IS FOR THE LADIES, which to me sounds right up your alleys.

i will send you FO details via pm when we get closer to the date.

Even if a decent DJ plays at venues like these I do choose to stay away from it as much as I can.

x2. It's way more frustrating listening to a DJ you like in the wrong environment.

I think you'll will find this hilarious:

So I caught Digweed one time at Avalon in Singapore. Midway into the set, two douchebags walked up on stage, shook a big ass bottle of champagne, and sprayed it onto the crowd. The rest of the night was ruined by sticky champagne and the smell.

I'd have chinned them !

.. or got Diggers to forcibly evict them (3mins 46 secs)

Just think not every club is 'underground' Yes clubs these days are going to appeal to the facets of fucking everybody. Millionaires and the likes. With the younger crowd now looking to be more appealed to the glitz and glamour of it all it is no surprise that clubs are becoming more like this. Even if a decent DJ plays at venues like these I do choose to stay away from it as much as I can.

(This was after two tacky dancers left the stage.)

If only you'd been there to tell Avalon on the mores of clubbing!

Re: Meetup - Digweed - Firestone - Orlando, FL

Yeah it does seem very tacky. But, moreso, divisive.

The best parties throw out the (man made) barriers of wealth, religion, nationality and bigotry and people just dance, together, whoever and whatever they are, as equals. People moving to the sound, as one.

You will never convince me that dividing up the club into sections, dependent on wealth, will make for a better atmosphere.

The kind of people who like to have their ego massaged a little by having drinks brought to "their" table would probably enjoy it more if they went to a casino or something. There, they'd find more like minded souls and can talk about who's got the biggest watch without the annoyance of the loud music and other people dancing

Re: Meetup - Digweed - Firestone - Orlando, FL

I think table service is generally considered tacky in the UK, a bit like hiring a Limo

(not wanting to upset anyone in the thread)


i completely agree with that

Re: Meetup - Digweed - Firestone - Orlando, FL

It's just a nice invite from a friend of mine who a) told me Digweed was coming to Firestone and b) said he would be getting/paying for a table. I thought it was a nice gesture. and since I'm not a fan in any way of the clubs or downtown here in Orlando in general, like I wad over 10 yrs ago.

Re: Meetup - Digweed - Firestone - Orlando, FL

In the spirit of meet-ups I'm looking forward to a fellow member flying into Sydney. To share experiences from worlds apart, talk our passion for a solid transition between songs and a heavy bass line. But if he ends up being a Pyramid scheme dictator who attempts to steal my liver by the end of the night, so be it...

Re: Meetup - Digweed - Firestone - Orlando, FL

I figured form this thread that a club in Florida is not as big as other clubs in the world, according to a Rolling Stones article written 17 years ago. And, table service in clubs is not very popular in England as it is in USA, due to the 'chavish' characters surrounding a table in a night club. So is it acceptable to say that tables do not belong in night clubs? Or a matter of the fact in opinions of this trend of restaurants morphing into a night club in the back (A-la the the spectacular Trouw).

Moving on from individual opinions, which I truly respect, I'd say it's good to see people make an effort to go beyond a forum dedicated to EDM, and trying to connect in an environment this forum is based on.
