Escape Friday's @ Channel Nightclub

ESCAPE Friday’s launches 9th of November,

Channel is Adelaide’s newest and most versatile event venue. Featuring 3 entertainment areas including a fully smoking laws compliant balcony area.
The venue comes complete with 2 independent PA systems and a fully computer controlled intelligent lighting system.
The venue is located in the heart of Adelaide’s Gouger Street market district and has a proud history of providing entertainment starting with Australia Dance Theatre from 1962.
The venue is now undergoing a 3 stage renovation and upgrade, and is being restored to its former glory with a box office, grand entry way and kitchen facilities.
With a massive launch planned Channel opens its doors for the 1st time officially on Thursday the 8th of November with ARC Live followed by Escape on Friday the 9th.
The venue will host a 4 night generic calendar featuring live music, house, electro, party, D&B through to hardcore.
Look out for massive shows coming your way not to mention the 2008 Fuse and the Fringe Festivals.

I've heard of Tactic and Kaos Theory....

Don't knock the unheard of I say... Everyone starts somewhere.. All the big DJ's in the scene started off not being known.

Anyway, I saw good on them for giving it a go.

my prediction is not based on the DJs
its based on the genres, size of the room, the nature of friday nights etc

Some of these dj's arent big names & that is why i am supporting them, they were my dj's and supported me at the club & now its time to give my support back to them, i used to own Black Cat & the new owners have asked me to come back on Fridays & help with promo, it is not going to be hard every week it will be a rotating roster, like next week is D&B night.

If anyone is interested in playing at the club at some stage please contact me i am a big believer in giving new djs a chance.

Good on you Dolton! I'm keen to whack out a set or two aswell.

Hope it goes well with the rotating roster, I was doing the same thing when i was running Diversity @ Club Feva. 1 week house/electro, next week trance, third week DNB and last week hard dance.

I resigned my position from there a week ago though (just before it shut!) there unfortunately wasn't any money from the club to promote it well enough so that people were aware of what night was what. Was all up to the DJ's to sms, myspace and post blogs on RA etc.

Let me know if you want to do a article on this night, since it's new. =)

Is this where gateway used to be? sounds alot like that venue. I'm confused. Didn't gateway just change its name also? Bit too hard for my liking.

i think its an awesome idea... ill def be there for the dnb nights..

this is another chance to support our local up-and-coming dj's Smile  :)

i think i went there a couple of weeks ago on a friday... people said there was dnb, and i rocked up and it was hardcore.... i was pretty angry... (no offence to ppl that like hardcore)

It's a good venue so I hope it does well. If people are open minded to listen to DJ's they haven't heard of or aren't "big" names then it should.

Exactly give them a chance and make your own minds up if they are good or not. Having said that there is a standard that should be acceptable where djs are concerend in clubs, especially when people are paying customers. Knowing some of the guys playing i know they are solid djs, so alls good.

(((ECHO))) Trance and Beyond

Coming up:
ECHO XMAS SHOW@EARTH Fri Dec 21 Feat AUS No 1 Trance DJ STEVE STRANGIS(Melb)
