The Club

I know there has been a post or two on this before but I thought I would start a new one.

This show is REALLY good. Basically it's about a club called ICE located down in Vegass and the day-to-day lives of the peeps that run it including a bitch of a promoter from LA they've just hired.

The kewl thing is that this thing really hits home... the club itself has brought in some pretty wicked DJ's - Godkitchen throws a night there once a month and just brough Mark Farina on the last episode... they also had Jazzy Jeff doing a Hip Hop/DMC set on his Pioneer 909 which was kewl... And on the episode before that, they featured Donald Glaude and DJ Dan who played at the one year anniversary of ice. Coming up soon is a DJ competition where the winning DJ will open for Paul Oakenfold. -- He looks a lot more into things this time around probably because he's being paid a small fortune.

The thing I like about this show is it shows all the work, problems and blood/sweat/tears that go into throwing a club night! -- If anything, it gives you peeps an appreciation for what some of the promoters do in this city for the scene.

Be sure to catch the show as it is interesting.

No doubt!

It's crazy how much staff IE: management, marketing, PR, etc. they have working at that club. It's a nice space too!

^ That would kind of negate the reason for the show being called "THE CLUB."

:-p

It's a sick club but it always makes me laugh cause,kraig can vouch for this, when you've worked in the club enviroment which I've bartended,Dj'd,managed....you look at everything a little different. Some of the things they do and the way they run things it makes me wonder where some of them got their experience from. Some of them just don't have a clue! In general its a good show and is a good little insight to the outside public of what some of the things are that goes on. The best part in this show is the drive to make "ICE" a public traded brand. That'll be tough for a club.

Granted I think shes a bitch and really doesn't fit in with the staff there but as shes said "I'm not here to fit in I'm here to do a job". Now true that doesn't mean you have to be a bitch about it but she obviously knows how to draw VIP's to the club. I don't think she'll last long but the connections they are making with her now cold benefit them when they launch in LA. You might hate her but then isn't it more fun to use those types of people.

Yes she may be there to do a job - but damn is she doing a HORRIBLE job. Did anyone see the episode where she called Paul Oakenfold a house DJ? How can she call herself a promoter when she can't get her genre's right? She was the face they happened to hire for the show.

^ok like what is her job anyways? Unless its to entertain us with some drama... wow how did she get their in the first place I wonder?

The Club is definently cool showing and interveiwing evryone involved. Thing is they focus so much on what everyone is doing I find you miss out on the actual party?
Im not too clear on the actual plot/modivation of this show... but it would be cool if they started to explore some other clubs around the world. Maybe test and see how each club reacts to the bich?

I believe $330 gets 4 people pass the line entry(no waiting), and a $300 bar tab. Drinks range between $5-10....

Getting in should be no problem!

oh yeah and this is the number 702.992.7970

haha DO IT!

Yah she's good for what's she's trying to bring to that club, celebrities etc. But I don't think that's what the club is trying to be about. They wanna be different and not like every other damn club so...they were heading in the righ direction until she came in. They need someone else... like KRAIG hahaha

Kraig, you should send them your resume. If they won't hire you as a promoter, I'm sure they'd bring you in as a DJ. You play good trance :p

It's an all house nightclub yet they had Oakenfeld play ????
Donald Glaude has residency there !

And we're getting in no problem no cover. My boi's got
a few hook ups with Casino hosts.....

Uber excited !!!

Were also going to check out this club called GhostBar.
It's on the 55th floor of the Palms hotel with a patio on
the roof over looking the strip !

I'm staying at Treasure Island and they have a nice club
in that hotel called Tangerine......it looks dope ! Everything
is orange and red......

We're bringing E bombs.......good timez !

I'm a little worried though, don't want to end up in jail down there.
