Last...Automatic...Ever. Tuesday August 29th

[automatic]

Tuesday August 29th will mark the end of an era for drum and bass in Vancouver.

After more than 7 years Automatic will be closing it's doors as a weekly clubnight.

All of us at Automatic would like to thank all the people who made this possible, the Lotus, the staff, the DJs, the MCs, the guests, C1rca footwear, the other promoters, all those who contributed to making the scene thrive, and most importantly each and every person who has ever come down and shaken their ass on the dancefloor.

Big yourself up!

To end things off with a bang the Automatic crew will be shutting the night down proper with what will be possibly the last ever old school classic...

TUESDAY AUGUST 29TH

The week before, Tuesday August 22 we'll be inviting any of the DJs who've played there regularily over the years (if you have to ask if that includes you then it probably doesn't) to come down for their last chance to play at Automatic in a massive "3-for-all".

Th-th-th-th-th-that's all folks!

Gnu151 regarding Automatic's closure:

"Brendan says: ya, but it's kind of comforting just knowing it's there
Brendan says: kind of like the grandparents you see once a year"

Well, thanks for all the stellas boys! :)

[Grapes]

Last ever Automatic is a can't miss affair. See you all there.

I wonder if they will play Up All Night!

[cubed]

wow.

that's all I can say about that.

apart from signal saturdays the lotus has now gone completely defunct.

big ups to mr. auto, we'll see you at the finale.

[starbright]

so so so so so sad.
mad respect to the crew for holding it down all these years and many thanks for all the wikkid times. best believe i'll be there to say goodbye proper.

[C_squared]

this is so completely heartbreaking right now... I'm having a hard time coming to terms with it.

all I can say is thx to Automatic: Jay-Auto, Matty, Dabbler, Soda all the MC's and dj's that have thrown events there over the years. Massive respects all of you for giving Vancouver drum & bass a place to thrive. I've met a lot of oustanding people over the years and good friendships have come out of Automatic. You seriously hold a special place in this junglists heart. Large ups a million times over,,, as sad as this is I know its for good reason. I hope to hear and see the AUTO logo on upcoming events... please say its not totaly over. Automatic Tuesdays will be missed.

[Toxxin Ephekt]

^^ Now I regret not coming out very often...
