I mean fuck me if im wrong here.

Its always great to utilize logical thinking, perhaps you should inquire about such a thing.
ya, the thing about bars makin their money in booze, and not wanting to loose a night of it is probably right, but I but they don't make much booze sales anyways on a tuesday or monday night

ok.. so u kno wut...


in Toronto & Montreal they have all ge club nites.. AND all age clubs..

even tho they dont sell liquor.. they make alot of money

BC = so many years behind..

w/ the mentality " oh it wont work blah blah " u wonder why we're behind..

fuck.. there so many things that if BC let in would be so great..

seriously.. if u put Montreals Nite Life.. in w/ Vancouvers Beauty and nice weather.. IMO we'd be the best place to live..

that's why Vancouver doesn't have a great nightlife though... because of the day-life. most people here are more into outdoor athletic passtimes, whereas in an urban sprawl like Montreal, clubbing is one of the only extra-curricular activities available.

in regards to the topic... i have to question the motives of a 29 year old who wants to put on an 'all ages' club night. :071: bit of a peter-pan thing going on there or what?? i've only seen this done by nightclubs that lose their license, just as a way to keep some cash flow coming in while they can't serve booze.

OK: To answer a few of the questions:
1) A club will have no problem with opeing up to an all ages clientele on a tuesday night when they are usually closed.
2) My motives are simple. I remember what it was like when I was that age during the summer months and had little to do that was any fun after 9pm at night. So we ended up getting into whole shit loads of trouble. Also I have had the privilage of not only working but travelling around the entire world and Vancouver is on of the only few major cities that doesn't have an all ages night especially in the summer months.
3) For the people that have said this is a dumb idea because I can't get a beer well you are obviously over 19 and this night is not intended to apease you!
4) 86 Street was packed all the time and everyone from those days knows that it was a great experience.
5) Godessa I respect your opinion but I have been working in and around night clubs since I was 15 years old and many clubs would be willing to open their doors to make some extra money.
6) It also gives up and comming local Dj's another oppotunity to get some exposure and experience playing in front of a decent sized audience.
7) It will also hopefully get some people that have not been exposed to some good house music to give it a try and maybe increase the popularity of the rave industry with the next genereation of ravers.

At this point we are simply looking at the possability of this to see if it's something the teenage community would be intrested in having. As far as actual logistics of putting it on that is already taken care of. If people will come we'll make sure it gets set-up for them.
Thanks for everyones feedback

i couldn't disagree more... montreal is a core city with a very densely packed urban centre, not urban sprawl at all.. it also goes far above and beyond vancouver culturally. there are heaps of galleries/museums, countless street art displays, loads of unique architecture and a summer full of wild festivals.. the F1 weekend, a jazz fest several times the size of vancouver's that literally shuts down the downtown core, street fair after street fair and much more. vancouver's only got montreal inarguably beat in that granola-eating, sport-nut sense. skiiing and sailing in the same day, woohoo. :249:

they had an underagers club here in vic for a while.....

i think u could only go there if you were between 14-18...

it was open for a summer... and then shut down.
kids were sneaking in booze and doing drugs in there.. it was getting bad.

toronto has 2.5 million more people living it then vancouver, montreal has 1.5 million...vancouver's smaller population cant sustain a similar nitelife.

This is very true, but I feel our night life can change if we start promoting it to the younger audiences in time it's going to change. I've been working on an event that'll su down gastown and have a band stage at one end and a dj stage at the other end but the city is making it very difficult for everyone involved. They have some concerns with doing such an event with possible results like the Game 7 Canucks and Guns and Roses. It's these people that ruin these oppotunities for the rest of us to put on great shows and have good times. I find it ever increasingly frustrating.

Yea I'd be down especially if there was house spinning... Due to the fact that I can't find a half-chinese guy that looks like me, to borrow ID off of.

it would be nice if vancouver lowered the drinking limit to 18

vancouver will be alot like sydney.... but then again that can really only be comparable if there were as many people... and i know alot of people wouldnt be down with the shit the city will have to enforce to sustain a bigger population (ie parking meters everywhere)

When we moved to the weekends it did well for a little while but then failed quickly. Mainly cause raves were happening every Friday and Sat

the youngins can just go to raves and get drunk ..

i had to wait my turn to get into the booze clubs.. so can they!

ps. the only difference between an all ages club and a rave is that the raves go all night..
