Guest Shenlong Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 QUOTE (Sparky @ Apr 12 2004, 20:13) Ive always heard negative things about the venue. was too packed! that and to get to toilets/funky room sorta area where ppl often hung out you ahd to wonder through the hard house and trance room both of which were heaving. was hardly any room to dance and was soooo hot! having said that i had a good time in the end once i got into it had plenty of better ngihts though, especially from frantic.

Guest Kether Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 The people sticking up for the night are idiots. It's a simple question of mathematics, put too many people into a club and you end up with a shit night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members colin66 Posted April 13, 2004 CTW Members Share Posted April 13, 2004 Have been to busier places but agreed, it was too hot and crowded. Anyway had a good time when I found my second wind. Was still a bit fucked from Riot. oh yea and Mr Si P played a fuckin blinder! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members Jessica Rabbit Posted April 13, 2004 CTW Members Share Posted April 13, 2004 It was too overcrowded, but I think that was due to the bad layout of the club rather than them letting too many people in, as it made dancing in the trance and hard house rooms similar to dancing in a corridor (...HHA anyone?!) I don't think you can blame it entirely on frantic as they are trying to experiment with using different venues after losing the camden palace and they can't always predict what problems will occur. I wonder how many of you slamming it as a 'shit night' have actually had any experience of running a promotion and how difficult it can be? Not trying to start any arguments, just a thought. And no, I am not on the free guestlist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 your right about the layout tho. as for the night, i had a great time. (but then i was on the free guestlist ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Promotors Lisa Posted April 13, 2004 CTW Promotors Share Posted April 13, 2004 didnt go, so cant say to much about it, but from what im reading from other sites, the problem is with the club not the promotion.

CTW Members Rascal Posted April 14, 2004 CTW Members Share Posted April 14, 2004 I too missed out on the night as was feeling fragile from Friday night.

CTW Promotors ElsxBells Posted April 14, 2004 CTW Promotors Share Posted April 14, 2004 I had a wicked night. I found enough room to dance in the trance room and funky room thankfully. The HH room was a nightmare though, not helped by the amount of weirdos there seemed to be in there Anyways, with regards to the club, I used to go to a weekly house night there a few years back now and there was never a problem with the layout. They packed it too full on Sunday and it changed the whole feel of the club. The music in the trance room was excellent (especially Si Patterson), and although I've said I'd I'm not going to any more Frantic events I may turn up at Chemistry again.

CTW Promotors Lisa Posted April 14, 2004 CTW Promotors Share Posted April 14, 2004 here is a statement Will frantic made on another site guys! Dear All, Id like to start by apologising to anyone that didnt enjoy the Easter Ball. We have used 17 different venues over the last 7 years and we are always looking for new venues so we can continue to provide a fresh and exciting clubbing experience. Unfortunately its only by doing the first event at a venue that the problems come to light. I must stress that it was never our intention to provide anything other than a great night out. We do listen very carefully to the opinions of clubbers. Id like to answer each criticism: 1) Toilets The queue for the toilets in the first part of the night was unacceptable. Unfortunately 3 cubicles were closed and it took too long for them to be reopened. I did ask the management to make sure the security were allowing women to use the male toilets to try and lessen the problem. There is another set of toilets, but these were out of action as they can only be accessed through the room we had taken over to make a large and more effecient cloakroom. If we could have forseen this problem we would not have used the venue. 2) Heat Im really sorry that some HFasters felt it was too hot. The venue opened doors and shutters by the toilets and by the back entrance to the Trance room to make the venue cooler. Its really disappointing as we originally had the Ministry of Sound booked for Easter Sunday, but moved it as the Main Room at the Ministry always seemed to be too hot. 3) Security As we are aware that security can be a problem at new venues we always take our own member of staff who stands on the door to make sure we can keep an eye on things. The security were friendly and courteous on the front door BUT if any of them behaved unprofessionally inside the venue please PM me with as much detail as possible and I will personally take the matter up with the management of the venue that hire the security. 4) Overcrowding We were working to a capacity suggested by the management. When we reached 100 less than they advised we shut the doors and ran a 1 out, 1 in policy. We do not overfill venues on purpose, but its very difficult when you are using a venue for the first time to get the capacity completely right. Conclusion On the positive side I felt that there was some great music in all three rooms and we were able to get clubbers into the venue and through the cloakroom really quickly and the Bars were quick with friendly bar staff. I had many positive comments on the River Bar. However I accept the criticisms and Im bitterly disappointed that it undermined the night for some clubbers. Id like to offer FREE entry to a Frantic event of their choice to anyone who feels the event did not match their expectations. Please PM me and I will arrange this for you. If there are any other concerns or queries please dont hesitate to -Phone or Text me on 07958 439 581 -Email me on enrages68@hotmail.com -PM me -Speak to me at a Frantic event or in most Harder events in the coming weeks. We work very hard to give clubbers a great night out but we totally accept we have a responsibility to choose venues with great crae and that if they dont work as well as intended to think again. Many thanks for your time, Will Quote Techno, Techno, Techno Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
