Title: Seriously 930 Club, what's up with your A/C (or lack of) !???
Post by: DC Rob on August 24, 2010, 12:27:04 am
Jesus God almighty! I just returned for the third straight time from your venue in the last few months and the temperature inside was just brutal.  WHAT is going on with your central air? Seriously. Are you cutting back to save money?  It wasn't like this before. At one point I thought I was literally going to pass out it was so hot. Enough already.  Do something about this.  It's bullshit!

maybe the a/c refused to pay service charges . . . or was pissed at eight dollar heinekens and got the air out of there.  or maybe it just wanted to dance.

Based on the Subject alone, I was totally expecting this thread to be a Thousand Made-Up Love's original.  Am I the only one?!?!?!

Nah, AC is a serious issue.

You know the A/C is screwed when you leave a show and it is cooler outside.  I was drenched last night at Tears for Fears and wasn't even moving.

How was Tears for Fears by the way?  I am SHOCKED that a $45 show on a Monday night in late  August sold out.  Didn't try for a ticket outside the club as I was not in to dealing with a sold out crowd on a Monday...looks like I avoided the internal heat wave.

Haven't been to the Club since the first New Pornos show. I do remember a show last summer being really hot there.

That was fast.  I have some problems around the house I'd like for you to look at, if you don't mind.

[Old Man voice]   When I was a boy, the 930 Club had no AC at all, just a big fan in the corner which wasn't always on...  and no circulation... so when it got crowded it was like 150 degrees in there and the place reeked of hair gel, clove cigarettes, stale beer, leather and sweat... and we liked it that way!!!

i believe that rat urine was also part of the "unique smell" of the old club.

 I thought that smell was the reek of self-righteousness coming of the straight-edge kids...   ;)

Thought they found out one of the beer lines was leaking behind a wall.

yeah, i've also read that beer leaked and that the subfloor was saturated with it (in the WaPo's 30th anniversary multimedia piece, i believe), but i was making reference to:

"At one point, one of the staff members led an odor specialist around the building. He determined that the unique smell to be resultant of a combination of tobacco, sweat, cleaner, and rat urine." (WaPo, 2005).
