As we stand on the eve of 2005...

[Kamal]

Tom and me were discussing this previously and since I'm over-ratedly excited about this but haven't still heard back from the rest of the mods, thought I'd go ahead and post this in here to get some feedback from the peeps I know for a fact will come out and be a part of this awesome vernture....

Thinking of getting some of the best talent from the forums together for a MASSIVE EVENT next summer in the UK (or anywhere else in Europre) ?

Spin out at this ALL NIGHT EVENT and party it out.... Can be in someone's distant farm house or whatever and have a mad MS get together ........

To make it more interesting, we can even hand out flyers etc. and make it a party.....we can promote it and charge a cover to all NON-MS members and discount a price for members. Get a local bar to cover the liqour (we charge a cut)...

... for all the members.... maybe could we give out a secret code word that will be cross examined at the entrance.... these guys will be let in for free.... around the same time, we get MS T-Shirts etc printed and hand them out at the entrance.

what do you guys think, I'm going NUTS thinking about this.....

Europe is overrated. How about we sell some t-shirts to offset the cost of airfare?

[Kamal]

well thats why we have this topic, we mutually decide a venue by vote etc, decide the DJ's, decide on the T-Shirts, decide on everything.... we need to see who will and is excited about this to even have a go at it obviously if there is no response, then its not worth discussing....

i think it is a brilliant idea!

^^ Let's hear more man. Where do you want to venue to take place? Which dj's? ... Tell us more!

I think it's a great idea. I would be curious though as to the dispersion of talent (Europe vs. USA). Why not have a mutual party night; one going on in the states and one going on in Europe and have them simulcast? I'm sure there are some people with the brains to pull that off. It can be like that Guiness event that happens every year where everyone raises their glass at the same time.

^^ Well lets not make the Moonraker here..... lets just start small first and work our way around that one

I'd be up for working out an [ms] event stateside in the future too.. with jibby, sickboy, and of course my partner in crime thrualoooop.

just an idea -e-.. not trying to step on anyones toes.


I honestly could see something like this becoming an annual event.. [ms] gets alot of bloody respect.. it is kind of scary. but awesome too!

[Kamal]

^^ that's awesome to hear cause I never get to hear any of it sure I dont mind a stateside event either..... in fact I'd like to hold one within a week apart of both continents i.e. europe and US......

unome, what recommendations do you have for an event stateside ? would love to hear your comments on state / location / etc

Sounds great!!!!
Hopefully it'll be in Europe and around September, we'll be in Ibiza for the Cocoon closing party.

there is this place in florida, near orlando, Wallaby Ranch. it is a hang gliding ranch if you will. A mate of mine attended a party there before. It is outside of course, but it has all the amenities of a campground. we had been in contact with them for NYE, but it just would have been too cold.
It is an idea, and I know the party that was there before, was all night, they had bon fires and what not. And when we contacted them about new years, they seemed reseptive ot the idea.

[Kamal]

^^ sounds interesting..... got any recommendations on indoor locations ?

[Steve Graham]

I can only go by what i know in this area... there is a huge club in Tampa, Masquerades, it holds about 1500 or so heads. I would have to try to contact the mgr.. but I know a few people that have done shows there.. and EDM show, and KRS 1, and it is very reasonable. We might be even able to get around having a bar guarantee.

Other than that, there are a couple other places around, not quite as big, but doable. One is called Czar in ybor.. the GM, Sandra, loves house, and we have been trying to get the tampahousemusic dj's in there, but with the holidays it has been a bit hectic.

i wonder if anyone knows the owners of simons in Gainesville, that would be a great spot.. like Masquerades, it has multiple rooms, so we could have different dj's going on at once.
