<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I definitely agree. Let's please stop blaming
people for not supporting the scene. I think it's important to remember
that we're talking about *parties* here, not funerals. Most people go
because they're looking to do something that's FUN. If it's not convenient
or attractive for people to attend, then you can't blame them. As a
promoter, it's your responsibility to do your best to create something exciting
and attractive that will excite people to get off thier butts and not miss what
you've got in store for them. Even for great promoters, sometimes you'll
win, sometimes you'll lose- sometimes you'll lose, BIGTIME. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anyhow, I think that if we're going to start
trying to get people to come to events out of guilt or out of some obligation to
"support the scene," then I think that "the scene" needs some tuning
up. Guilting people into it smacks of religion rather than fun.

<P>oh my. please DO NOT put people down for not wanting to drive to
bellflower in the rain on a saturday afternoon when many had to be back in LA
that evening. give me a break. this is ridiculous. im beyond
SICK of hearing people talk about their being "no support" for this or that in
LA...sometimes if someone doesn't want to go out, then they just don't want to
go out...when did we start faulting people for wanting to stay home?
damn...

a very cool venue, I definetely agree about the security being punks.. one
night they didn't even let me in becuase I walked in without them "checking"
me. but it was 4am and they werent even blocking the door as I was walking
in. <BR><BR>Security is definetely an issue anywhere you go and the
promoters may loose business becuase of this.. just a "heads
up"<BR><BR>>>><BR>to save email cluttor Id like to touch another
subject, about yesterdays UnionSoundSystem day party.. NO SUPPORT
WHATSOEVER!! with the exception of a few peeps. As I arrived
around 8pm (the time I thought it would be most poppin) there were only
about 30 people and most were leaving.. <BR><BR>I just don't understand what
the fuck is up with LA.. this was a DOPE location, great sound and dj's,
FREE FOOD, and it was something DIFFERENT! Why didn't anyone
come? becuase it wasn't located in Hollywood or becuase it was raining
out?? come on! it rains for 2 days in LA and all of the sudden people
acting like its Noah's ark! It's rare when 30 of LA's local dj's
unite together in a combined effort, there really should be more support for
our local talent! <BR><BR>I'd like to thank UnionSoundSystem and
everyone involved for trying to keep this scene fresh in LA.. I know you
guys are almost at the end of your rope, but keep it goin yall, becuase
eventually the masses will support the real! </SPAN></FONT><FONT
