we are trying to get a monthly event and residency going there


If you have hosted events in the past, what were your best practices/lessons learned from them?

Man, I'd love to get feedback from you and everybody else on what things to expect when throwing a party. A logistics checklist of sorts

^^^ Hey pickle I'm am learning on the fly myself, so I can tell you my experiences after the event. My buddy Jake C and I are trying to build a monthly event and try to get a a bunch of different local djs and music fans involved. Then try to expand with regional talent, then national, then hopefully global!
It would be cool to hear others advice and experiences on here

let me know if you need any help. I used to throw parties back in college, brought in some pretty decent talent too.

Re: My first club event (hosting)

I want to do the same thing. A few buddies and I did a biweekly event that only lasted for 2 months on account of the club owner being a douchebag, but I didn't deal with much outside of hanging out at the door for a while or setting shit up/tearing it down.

I'd like to know what others have experiences in throwing a party so I can approach it myself or have some proactive suggestions for my buddies so we're more prepared next time.

Don't offer it to us, give it to us! What were your lessons learned, unexpected problems, what did you have to plan for prior, etc
