you know, I wish more people were down with the getting in early thing. We
always plan to start our live acts at around 11 but end up pushing back
until 12 or soometimes 1 because people tend to show up really late. It
would be great to say "sorry, you missed it" but for the artists sake we
tend to wait until theres a nice crowd.
Ideally I'd love it if a show started at 9 (giving people time to grab
dinner) and people showed up but in NYC it just doesn't seem to be something
that will happen.
In our case, we don't get the "kids" at all, everyone seems to be between 24
and 30 and employed yet for some reason they just like to roll in super
late.

You've got the forces of the rave scene,
the indie electronic scene, and oldness/having a job
coming all together. Its tough to do shows
that bridge the gap, because kids expecting a show come
at 8pm, and get sleepy by 12, often kids expecting
rave/party flava don't show till 12.
I've been trying to do things that start around 8 and go till 3.

Man, I really want shows to go on eariler, especially on weakdays.
Matinee style.
I don't know if I'm getting old or what, but I like it to show up on
time and it seems I'm waiting around alone... a lot! haha
Doesn't it seem like it'd be a whole lot different if shows started at
8.
