End of Douglas College parties

normal josh · #1 (**permalink**) May 19, 04

i guess it would only be fair to warn everybody that there will no longer be and all night parties happening at the douglas college students union buiding from now on.

i dont know if this is the bast spot for this thread but this is where im going to put it.

due to some actions that happened at the last show on saterday the 15th of march being an O.D. that happened to some one that will not be mentioned, this raised some eyebrows down at the city hall that now have discovered some new by-laws restricting events within that building to the same by-laws that apply to the rest of the city being no events (unlicenced) to happen longer then 1:30 A.M. unless its a private party with no cash exchange.

it is unfortunate that this has happened and it is unfortunate there some one has to O.D. but whats happend has happend.

to my knowlage the individual that O.D.ed is okay and living with the guilt of their actions affecting everyone else, but at least they are safe and sound and recovering.

i liked that place

Its definetly unfortunate that this had to happen. Affordable party, easy access in terms of location.

Of coarse there will always be those who make it harder for the responsible people to party

Mc*Phee · #7 (**permalink**) May 19, 04

I liked the place too easy convient safe venue. Sooooo why dont people just say from now on that they are private parties??

cinist · #8 (**permalink**) May 19, 04

well that's shitty

"the guilt of their actions" i don't know how i feel about that statement.

I hope the person is feeling ok and is not about too hurt themselves in that manner again. I'm no expert but it seems to me a person taking themselves too the point of od'ing is in a state of pain, maybe it's not so much a question of stupidity? also do we know if this person took the drug willingly ?

i think what we need today, with so many new young faces coming into the scene is education. We need to educate these kids on what will potentially kill them. What happend to free information tables with brochurs,even condoms etc.. ? we need to bring that back

What is special about our little community i think, is that we see a problem and we band together too solve it. Loosing yet another venue is going to be hard on us, it is, but i think we need to address safety and education first. Without this being our priortity there is room for this too happen again and more venues or more importantly LIVES will be lost.

that sucks. this was a fun place to have parties.

i enjoyed the balcony and videogames :(

normal josh · #10 (**permalink**) May 19, 04

good point cinist...

with the free informations tables and stuff like that, from a small time promoter is a little on the expencive side... if those services were offered free to promoters then im sure there would be alot more of them...

but still good point non-the-less

Dean · #11 (**permalink**) May 19, 04

i liked the balcony too!

it was a good place to have little parties

Quin600 · #12 (**permalink**) May 19, 04

Aww, Ill miss my parties so close to home.

I really did enjoy dougie parties. Small, tight venue, but it never got too hot unless the patio was off limits. Damn shame.

matéo · #13 (**permalink**) May 19, 04

that place was way too clean. I felt wierd walking around with my shoes on. Well you and Eric threw some great parties there.

Mc*Phee · #14 (**permalink**) May 19, 04

The city should look beyond 1 person oding! its New west for christs sake! I guess dougals was like the clean city pride....

Cinto · #15 (**permalink**) May 19, 04

IT was a lot of hard work into making that a venue for us to use, but I seem to think that it was only a matter of time for something like this to happen. New West already had that by-law in place, and we were using douglas as a private venue just hoping that all would go well! I guess that's what you getfor trying too hard. It's ok. NNP is going to be moving on to something new!

Shitty deal. I know a lot of people didn't like douggie, but I loved the fact that its only a 15 minute ride from my house. There were definitely some fun shows there.
Ah well, another one bites the dust, unfortunately :(

stringbeans · #23 (**permalink**) May 19, 04

i totally predicted this happening in another post i made a few months ago saying that this venue was being way overused... its basically become the spanish of 2003/04

Kraig · #24 (**permalink**) May 19, 04

Hmmmm... that sucks... Some great parties were had there for sure!

I think we should blame this on Azim.
