Glow's new venue

[empath]

Looks huge:

http://www.furnightclub.com

[cleophite]

i like how the OHM home site blasts loud music that scared me half to death :FUBAR:

looks like its going to be a nice size venue. on the floorplan, 1/8" = 1'

[empath]

pete moutso said "bigger than dream"

I've never been to Dream, so I don't know how big that is..

[MattaKnox]

Dream looks pretty big from the outside :shrug:

I wonder where this club is gonna be..

[Unfeign]

f|u|r hmm...fur...interesting name. fur. are they referring to the sexiness of fur rugs, or the sexiness of a woman's personally fur (or, sometimes, lack thereof).

fur.

that kind of creeps me out. if they have beds with fur covers a la 1223, i may have to start a make-fun-of-fur thread.

[beth]

:confused:

wait a sec, i'm a little confused
i thought glow was moving to the DC tunnel.
are they just building a new club instead?

[bkidz]

Quote from the website:

Fur Nightclub is currently under devolopment and will be DC's premiere underground venue.


"UNDERGROUND" This so doesn't look underground. . . . . . . :wtf:

[Tails]

They've been saying forever that they're not moving to the Tunnel...

I've heard that FUR is at New York and 6th, but I'm not 100% sure on that as I haven't gone to see for myself.

Maybe we should wait for it to open before we start making fun of it, but I'm not getting my hopes up on that one. :wink:

[bkidz]

Look at their client list. . . . . I don't see any underground clubs there. They all look pretty mainstream to me. . . :confused:

[bkidz]

The venue looks tight. I may end up going as long as the DJs are top notch. And I know that it's almost always trance, so they'd have to be some serious trance in the house.

[LordOfThePance]

Maybe it's going to be in someone's basement...which would make it "undergound" to me. :delirious:

[Tails]

Pete has mentioned wanting to "diversify" the night a bit, which I imagine will mean more house and such?

I'm looking forward to the re-opening.

[tinkerbelle]

I wonder why they are calling it "fur." It either reminds me of a raccoon or pubic hair.

[elad]

isnt it obvious?

Raves

duh.

You've got to be kidding me.

lol. For Underground Raves.. FUR :) too bad when you stick underground and raves in a public venue it sorta defeats the purpose :O

[Buttercup]

It looks great...

Well Keith, don't you know its "mainstream" to say your "underground" now.

What's happening to our scene :(

Oh yeah........ its getting "mainstream"

[coreysyms]

F.U.R. that isent for one of those parties where people dress up in giant bear outfits and... ah humm... you know lol

Why not? Everyone that went to glow had a body-hair problem. Fur is the perfect name! :haha:

[ao125]

As long as it isn't hoity-toity like Platinum, I'd be down for taking a trip there... Hopefully they'll pay special attention to the air handling systems so it isn't a stinky, swealtering hell-hole.

GOtta go on hetro night.....there was lots and lots of VERY hairless girls there whenever I went.

[Busy Child]

i believe the place is called fur cuz it used to be a fur clothing warehouse back in the day.

[Jim]

hopefully this club is it...nation has lost its sparkle....atleast for me...

[tigermomma]

I like the fact that there are at least 5 lounge areas..not including VIP and three dancefloors...besides the spaces are set up for flow...big open areas. Hopefully the ceilings will be high to maximize this effect.

Looks like it will be nice.

Is Glow still going to be on Saturday nights??

[rajdeep]

I definitely like any place where I can rest my ass. No the can doesn't count. :D

[DJ ORI]

you can put a pretty bow on shit but its still shit. I dont doubt its going to be an amazing space. I only question whats going to be filled in that space (people) and the promoters. Most of the promotion team with panorama (with the exception of Beema and a few others) are disgusting people.

[NicotinePatches]

:werd:
we already have enough prissy bitch clubs in the area.
space looks phat tho...
wonder how long the walls would stay white.

What makes you say that?

[DJ ORI]

The way they treat the clubbers like they are cattle. Either it was them, Insommnia Staff, or a mix of both. I understand the amount of work that goes into the productions they do, but what I dont understand is why throw it all away by being rude and snobby and shady to your customers? Hopefully things will change with the new venue?

[rajdeep]

I believe the club management was to blame for the shoddy treatment i.e. Insomnia.

I know someone else said it, but yes, I also believe it was management.....and even more specific, it was the door people. I dunno about being treated like cattle, but it was a little impersonal. Of course, I used to think that about nation, until I got to know some people, then miraculously, the staff seemed better to me.

Glow, IMHO, is an excellent party. They get high profile names, and I am glad panoramic prod is continuing this. BUT, I'm also glad it's not at Insomnia anymore.

Can't wait til this opens.

SHE BANGS SHE BANGS!

yeah, it was better once I finally got in the place, but Its dissapointing to have to go through all that shit at the door. Like I said, hopefully the new place will be a bit more friendly.

[Electric Head]

I hope so too. If not, Glow has a message board like this one, where maybe a complaint like this (or two) could get results.

[Tails]

:werd:

I get the impression that they're serious about improving the Glow party -- otherwise, why spend the time and money to move it to another, better venue? Everyone was complaining about the size of Insomnia, and the sound there... and now they're inacting changes to fix those problems. I have a lot of respect for that. It'll be worth seeing if the transition will have paid off.

[Busy Child]

yep, we've been harpin the glow peeps about the acoustic problem, shady speaker system, and horrible staffing. All of that is said to be different at the new party. Just voice your opinion and if you harp enough about it, you may get wat u want!

[jediprince8007]

looks cool

I don't think i'll ever go back to insomnia. a friend of mine "worked" there for a little bit so we always got up in VIP. All VIP was was an excuse for the guys who worked there to rub up on some women. *shakes head* i've never felt like such a piece of meat.

[sidewayz]

panorama = glow = cheesy, trendy, shallow = trance = puke

I dont think you have to worry about that anymore cause, Insomnia is closed for now(but I cant say if its going to be closed for good, cause I dont know). January was its last month opened.

:thumbsup: Im glad you state your opinion, but hey this GLOW you talk about. the(chessy,trendy,shallow,trance,whatever the fuck you think about it) :sadblue: Can sure bring some damn good dj's and same damn good MUSIC/FUN:D

[sidewayz]

like who, ferry corsten? c'mon, his fucking name is fairy......

[Tails]

How about James Holden or Scott Henry?

It was shoddy when they were back at Club Zei too. It seems to be endemic to the GLOW party. :shrug:

I don't like trance that much.. and in my mind Ferry Corsten is one of the best producers ever! He has had so many hit's, time and time again.. Just because you don't like trance doesn't mean they arn't good producers..

[DJ ORI]

not trance

[Tails]

No one needs to defend trance. The success of Glow as an event speaks for itself.

[Tails]

Originally posted by DJ ORI

Not relevant. He asked what great DJs had been to Glow, and these are two.

Pick your battle: do you hate trance, or do you hate Glow? Then we'll talk.

[DJ ORI]

did you ever go to one?...Deep Dish was the only time it was tolerable and the girls with us diddnt get grabbed

[DJ ORI]

holdenis okay and henry is great ....but nobody was there for holden and henry is a local that plays jsust about every party in and around DC.

[plurchichi]

OMFG YAY1!!11 PLURR!!

[Tails]

I've been... I've had good times, and I've had bad times. I don't think it's necessarily for me 100% of the time, but it has its dedicated fans, just like any other party. :shrug:

You have to consider changing the venue to be a potential starting-over point. Sure, the doors could open at FUR and the night could be as "grabby" as it ever was. However, casual clubbers might not read the Glow message board, unlike those who really do miss the music that was offered by the party. These "casual clubbers" -- generally responsible for macking on girls and not getting into the tunes -- may not even know where the club is reopening. It's possible this will create a swing in Glow's clientel.

It's not a prediction, just a possible outcome. Time will tell on that one.

But until that happens, past performace in this case is not necessarily indicative of future performance. Too much has changed to make that relevant.

Long story short: Give them a chance at the new venue first. If you (general you) hate trance and hate Glow, then seriously, what are you doing in this thread? There are lots of other parties.

[DJ ORI]

hey....all i said was holden and henry werent trance:shrug:

I know, I'm not attacking you or anything, Ori... nothing personal, mang. :thumbsup: It's just stuff I had to post about the party -- not in response to anything you or anyone else nessarily said -- because I don't think it's getting treated fairly as it hasn't even started up again. A whole lot can potentially change!

[iminxtc]

TRANCE :yes:

[DJ ORI]

If they dont book Markus schulz then they all get cock punchings

[iminxtc]

and "dj ori" the link to your mix doesnt work :lame:

[Tails]

Yes, trance! :yes:

Markus Schulz would be cool. I haven't seen him live, but the live set I have of his is pretty good. :D

Strange...i tried it in netscape and explorer and it worked fine. If you still have problems thenjust right click the link and "save as" to your hard drive. Its a 17MB file and in realplayer format so it might take a bit to download.

Works now, was broke before....

:lame: Okay....I was going to leave this for tomorrow, but I thought what the hell. Im not going to bash you becuase you state your own opinion, but I will just say this. I guess you have never seen Ferry(FAIRY) :not agaaain: Corsten live. If Corsten ever decided to spin at Cubiks, he would easily throw one hell of show. I enjoy trance, but Like someone else stated in this thread ...Corsten is one damn good producer. Dont hate on one of the worlds best DJ's, becuase of his name.. thats just Dumb.:rolleyes: I listen to DJ's because of the music they spin, not because how they say their name or even pronounce it. Talk to me when you have the privilege to see one of the world's best DJ's live.

[sidewayz]

obviously u dont know who i am do you

[Tails]

I'm not sure if he does, but I don't. :confused:

oh yeah, i know. as far as i knew they were planning on reopening but that might have changed since i heard from anyone about it. but like i said, never going back if it does reopen and i don't plan on checking out fur.

[eatbiscuits]

is there ANY chance they'll bring in some dnb or breaks..?

[Tails]

Breaks maybe, if they're trancy, but I highly doubt you'll see DnB there.

He's right. You should hate on him because of the music he produces and spins.

[candypink]

i saw ferry at avalon in nyc and he was amazing. i look forward to the return of glow...i didnt always like the patrons, but the djs they bring are top notch

[Methodus]

sidewayz is DJ Fresh yo!!!!

I dunno, most lame dj's are named DJ Fresh.

[djpnuemo]

holy shit... glow stepping it up!

[sidewayz]

NOPE, not Dj Fresh but if u think Dj Fresh, aka the head of Bad Company, i s lame then u got some issues. Fresh is lame and trance is good? you guys need to lay off the pills

[oneshot]

don't hate on glow

in the end, everyone is about making money and thats what they are doing..

this is a big step for DC.. we have a club finally that can compete with Space in Miami and Avalon in Newyork...

I so agree with you. :thumbsup: This new venue for Glow, is going to put them in the spot light. "The future is bright for Glow".

[DjAmP]

I think glow is going to be a lot better now, just the size of the club being bigger will probably get me going there more often.

Attention everyone, we are now required to listen to ONLY what sidewayz likes, everything else is crap.. :lame:

[kathy v]

Looks amazing! It sort of reminds me of the store that opens across the street from the barbershop in Barbershop 2--only brighter. I'd be curious to check it out. Wonder who they'll book....

:bowtodaking:

[znrg3k]

I like the blue print, definately gonna check it out if it opens... doesn't look like it will open for at least 2 months though.. :shrug:

[PlatinumSux]

We got an opening date yet?

[sammy6979]

Its being pushed back again. Possibly sometime in August?

[djnumb]

So will the new GLOW will only book Trance DJs? Does anyone know? And will there be dress code bullshit? If they book good DJs I'm there of course, but if there is a dress code, fuck 'em.

[littlelauren]

it sux that the opening was pushed back AGAIN! i was sooo set for a crazy july. more glow withdrawl =(

[Sweet Misery]

Hey if you assholes would go instead of just criticize then maybe it'd be filled with people you like. If you really like music you go for the music regardless of who the fuck is in the crowd.

[fracta1001]

i'm not liking the name "fur"

[fracta1001]

they still don't know if its gonna be 18+

but if its so big, they can make room for everybody

[fracta1001]

regardless, i havent been to a club/event that had an overall good vibe in a while...maybe i'm STILL suffering from old-buzz withdrawal...maybe this place will be cool...but if it does just cater to certain groups, it will be quite a waste

[DJZION]

Hey if you assholes would go instead of just criticize then maybe it'd be filled with people you like. If you really like music you go for the music regardless of who the fuck is in the crowd.

WORD! People complain that they hate the crowd, they don't even care about the music. Well if you CARED about the music then why aren't you there? GO to Glow, make the best of it. Even if not everybody is a "raver", you will find some people passionate for Trance music. I have high hopes for this new Fur club.

[iminxtc]

i just haev high hopes for trance :D

[ifunowhatimean]

I agree the name Fur is a poor choice. Did they feel the need to stick to only three letters to keep it simple or could they just not get any cheesier. It makes me think of a lot of pretensious clubbers wearing fur coats sitting on fuzzy couches giving the real scene a bad name.

[DJZION]

"Fur" is a poor name but the party is still "Glow".
"Nation" isnt exactly a breakout name either hehe.

[Lynchx]

big n nice

[i licked JOEYd]

Hey if you assholes would go instead of just criticize then maybe it'd be filled with people you like. If you really like music you go for the music regardless of who the fuck is in the crowd.who is calling who an "asshole" here?
hmmmmmmmmmmmm, that kind of attitude is REALLY making me want to go.

Glow just booked Digweed for 8-28...
