Who owns Echostage?

Events at the venue are managed by Panorama Productions

Created in 1995 by Antonis Karagounis, Panorama Productions has utilized an extensive
marketing strategy to create a brand name that has become recognized and respected
as the leader in event planning, and promotions in the Washington Metropolitan region.
Our playing field is DC Clubs, DC Lounges, DC Parties and DC Nightlife in general.

Over the past 15 years, Panorama has built a strong and loyal following by providing an
intense and unique atmosphere that has helped redefine DC Nightlife. Much of its
success can be attributed to the appeal of its events to a wide variety of patrons, who
continue to congregate on a weekly basis to enjoy local, national, and international music
and dance club culture.

Being the largest promotions company of its kind in Washington DC, Panorama
Productions and its subsidiary, DC Clubbing is known throughout the world as a Mecca
for memorable nightlife events and parties and has attracted the biggest stars in the DJ
universe, including Tiesto, Paul Van Dyk, Armin Van Buuren, Ferry Corsten, Benny Benassi,
David Guetta and many others. Panorama’s list of venues is equally impressive with
signature events at DC clubs like Platinum, Love, DC Live, Spy Club, Zei Club, Fur,
Insomnia and Coco Loco.

Currently, you can find Panorama Productions lighting up DC nightlife on Tuesdays and
Wednesdays at Lima (1401 K St NW), Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at Ultrabar
(911 F St. NW), and Saturdays with their flagship event, Glow at Fur nightclub
(33 Patterson St. NE). From college events to cocktail soirees to DJs “massives,”
Panorama runs the gamut in DC nightlife and entertainment and has established itself
as a force to be reckoned with, in the nightlife, club industry. Often imitated, never duplicated,
Panorama represents the promotional model that other companies aspire to be. DC
clubbing will never be the same.

Barf.

Also, this reads like Panorama is a promoter, not a club owner.

Will Anthem cannibalize 930 shows? Discuss.

only the shows that are too big for 930 but seth didn't have another option (echostage doesn't work for everything, and seth isn't the operator there... little incentive to use that anymore, i would think).

i'm wondering if ever a 930 show starts selling better than expected, will it ever be moved to Anthem?  and if an Anthem show's ticket sales are under-performing, will it be moved to 930?

#surprise!_not_at_the_club?

lol

Excellent question and likely

Remember the time a Shins show and a Spoon show got combined and flipped to a Merriweather show and a pretty fair kerfuffle ensued? The User Curated HoF thread remembers!

i feel, acts that will be playing the anthem, would never set foot in the 930 . . . because of its size, and they think it's yucky and seedy.  and the beer selection.

Other than possibly Lorde, every act announced so far for The Anthem have played 9:30 multiple times.

[herman otto]

don't kill, my buzz.  after they play the anthem, they will never set foot in 930 again.  how, about that?  and still, the beer selection.

[grateful]

I predict that Anthem will be voted the best small- to mid-sized venue in the country, bumping 9:30 down to #2.

I still just want to say Seth is missing out on so much synergy not having Good Charlotte come and play their song The Anthem @ The Anthem.

wrong

we're asked to do that all the time now...when a show sells out sometimes they want us to move it to a bigger place

I say no

I don't believe in it for a number of reasons, mostly because that's not the promise we made when sold someone a ticket

LCD Friends With Benefits Presale tomorrow at 10:00 am.  Must use your FWB on the ticketfly site for tickets.

I think as a show of solidarity, we should all wear our 9:30 club gear to the Foos.
