Thursday June 18th 2009
Ok so I'm here with another late update. The events that should be covered are, The Playground @ Club NV, Sugar @ Glaskat and Eclipse @ Abyss.
First, The Playground. Didn't hear much from this party, so i'm just expecting the normal Tonic Live crowd with the normal Tonic Live numbers, that is, until i get word of a official number.
Sugar, hosted by BayHype is next. At first I expected the normal Bayhype, the long lines and crowded dance floors, but they over exceeded my expectations on this one. Long lines that stayed until 12 - 1230 when they finally hit capacity and closed the doors. Overall a very good party which is what everyone expected from Bayhype party. Still dont have a official number, but i will update this as soon as i get one.
Eclipse, The Official Pre-Launch Party of Eclipse Ent. With so many new companies we don't expect everyone to start off good. I mean really, theres only so many companies that are able to stick around for a long time, you got your TonicLive, BayHype (formally BayFunction), iRock (formally RockTheBay), and Underworld who recently have been hanging on by a thread, and then you got your rising stars that have made it thru a year, your BreakingPoints and Uprising. But Eclipse showed that they are a force to be reckoned with. Everyone loves abyss so the normal people will show up, but being able to really fill it up is something different. And from what everyone has told me and all the pictures i saw, this was definatly a southbay event you should not have missed. Can't wait to see what they do for their Launch Party. Good Luck Eclipse Ent.
And on another note, I'm reading this side chat, and i guess you can say,there are alotta stong opinions. What i need to make clear is that this blog was made to be informative, ive always made this open to the public to tell me their opinions and fill me in if i missed anything or if i made a mistake. And to say these are just the asian companies, then show me other 18+ that pull and i'll be glad to cover those. Plus isnt SanFrancisco like 80% asian. Im not here to talk shit about all the companies, and a certain person immaturely confronted me about my blog, so i will gladly stop mentioning them in this blog. All the companies should take this information as, this is what the customers see. Of course everyone is gonna think their own party was the better one, so knock yourself down a notch and just accept that everybody has good parties and everyone has bad parties.
But back to business, Next Week we have Tonic vs. Underworld! The Playground vs. Boogie Bots. And the word on the street is that Boogie Bots wont be there! Well you're gonna have to wait and see!
and like usually...send me pictures and logos. comments are always welcomed.

Ok sorry for taking so long but this one was a little more difficult to do. I didnt know that many people that went to NV and i got mixed reviews about Mist. So i am going to write what i know and yall can correct me if i wrong.
Start with Club NV or Club 525 or whatever its called now, hosted by Tonic Live. I think this one was called, Little Black Dress Affair. And from the word on the streets about 50 - 100 people were there, give or take. Once again i'm not sure, just what i heard. And if you read my last post, i said NV is about a 1500+ capacity, 50-100 people isn't so hot.
(*EDIT* Just got official numbers for the event...206...thats alot better than 50!)
But on another note, TonicLive was also in Sac at Empire. And by the sounds of it and by the expectations of it, that did very well.
Uprising had the other event in SF that night at Mist Ultra Lounge (formally Loft11), called SummerTime inthe SFC. I heard this event started very slow, with the top floor not open until late into the night. But eventually the top floor openned and the place started to fill. Although this is just a rumor, i heard that alot of people from NV eventually came to Mist, but i must repeat, a rumor.
And again information is very limited this week, for i have gotten very little feedback from my reliable sources. But next week for sure i will check out "Bow Ties & Miniskirts" @ Club 525 and "Sugar" @ Glaskat.
Oh and like how i ended my last post, Abyss wasn't too bad. Seems like Ralph Nader is hanging in there huh lol.
Ok so now i leave with this. If anyone has anymore info about these past events, anything from, numbers (official or estimates), pictures or just any feedback, please feel free to leave a comment.

Thursday June 4th 2009 ; Industry or Twitter
If you haven't heard, a handful of companies come together every 1st thursday at the infamously played out "Glaskat", and due to high demand, we will start with this event.
"Industry Nights", as its called every 1st thursday, was hosted by NxLevel, BayHype, Breaking Point, Rukus, Bay Funktion Ent, & Phoenix Sounds. Although the taco to sausage ratio was low, it was an average party with your average quirks, packed dance floor and a mediocer bar. I would say this was a party not to miss, but then again, you can just come back July 2nd and experience it all over again.
Tonic Live hosted one of the most clever ideas for an event so far, "Twitter Party".
If you're a person that says, "its about quality not quantity", then this was the party for you. With a 1500+ capacity, about 25% of the venue was full. On the upside, 85% of that 25% were female. This I must say, in my own opinion, was the complete opposite of "Industry Nights". It was "girls vs guys", "quality vs quantity", a real classic Tonic vs The World.
I can't appoint a winner this week, so i'll let the viewers decide. Dont forget about RockTheBays or iRoc's weekly "$3 Thursday" @ Abyss in Sunnyvale. Although in Sunnyvale, this party serves as the "Ralph Nader" of this industry (no offense)
(if you have crowd shots for any of these parties, Email Them To Me! so i can post em!)
