The evil fish

Brenda told me about this at a show this past weekend... very sad. Just stopping buy to send my regards... I hope she pulls out of this... my prayers are with her and her family.

Can't wait to see you! Thank You :-)

THIS SATURDAY NIGHT!!! Plenty more added to this... lots of cool stuff... can't wait to see everyone there!!

Only 2 1/2 weeks away!!!

Yeah... I can't see us ever not working without Nix... he does all our work... CD art as well. You should have gotten a poster from us last night at Northern Lights! :-)

Not a problem Troy. Yeah... when ever we (CyberTrybe) have any kind of control over door cost, we like to keep it no more than $5. In this case when we have shows at the Leland... we (promoters) charge $1 more than the normal $4 at the door... that is sufficient to take care of the acts and still keeps it low for regular CC goers. It's more about the show than the money. I hope a lot of you all come out. We miss our DGN peeps... its been a long time. These leland Ballroom events usually turn out pretty good and are a lot of fun. I know CYBERTRYBE loves playing them. I'm looking forward in seeing everyone's Apocalyptic apparel... anyone who says they don't like dressing up like a mad max character is simply lying! lol

Yes Troy, its only $5.

Now being hosted by Dark Blood Angel and VJ Strokenfold.... WSG - F.I.S.T. (Guest DJ)

Mostly out of town... we're still booking.

This.... is gonna be fun. APOC2 event page

I think it would be just about right... just 2 or 3 ravers... not a shit ton of them lol!

lol what I'd like to see is ravers with their glow sticks stuck to the wall by 12 inch spikes to provide us light! And that might make it a bit Goth! (Just a hint that I don't like the little raver kids all that much)

Here's my opinion.... I think we need to step back and lay off the ego juice for a few seconds. I'd hate to see someones hard drive fry and more music have to be stolen because all is lost and their traktor is gone! Here's is what I know.... I know that the collective events have brought 100 to 200 more people into CC on the nights they took place compared to normal CC nights... that's a plus. I know that even though I agree to a point of the fetish thing being overplayed... its the really shitty amateur crap that is bad. Done right, with the right music, leaving a lot to the imagination and well rehearsed... fetish nights are normally good. I also know that my fetish nights I put on, on my nights I ran attracted more DGN and CC goers than any other night we had. Suspensions and fire acts took a close second. Just because there are 3 or 4 people vocal about "not" liking it doesn't mean that is the majority opinion. There's a reason why fetish nights attract more folks. (I just can't stand the fetish groups that think beating the hell out of someone is fetish and exciting) I think the themed nights have done well and people seem to have liked them to the point they are always asking when is the next one? What are the collective going to do next. So keeping it themed works and is good for everyone... no one said you had to stick to it and participate... do or don't.. it's you're choice. I'm not exactly sure what the "DJ's" have to worry about at CC except whether or not the next track they play is going to crowd or empty the floor. I do know the Collective has to sit on both sides of the isle of fun VS business. We have to make it fun so everyone will come back VS we have to think about profit and attendance or we wont have a venue for you to come back too. It's a hard balancing act. I think some amount of respect needs to be given to the Collective considering they are trying to unite this scene (which it is deeply divided) and bring attention to this scene which goes under-appreciated most of the time. I have seen more than enough... people bitching and cutting them down and not really giving them a chance. These people are out there promoting the crap out of what they do and drawing attention... more than what I have seen in my 15 years in and around this (Detroit) "scene". My rant here is about more than this thread... I'm seriously tired of hearing the bitching all over, on these threads, at clubs and in real life from people that don't do anything but show up... and complain. I mean if it's really that bad... throw on that white Izod and plaid shorts and go to the other side. In the mean time... let us have our fun... and you're all invited.
