ATTN MOS EISLEY GUESTS/BANDS[views:41313][posts:51]_____________________________________ [Apr 16,2010 12:39pm - Alx_Casket ""] I just got a call this morning from the owner saying that due to recent circumstances, the venue will be temporarily closed, effective immediately. This is solely due to the number of guests that the venue has been attracting and breach of the building's fire code. The owner is looking into the details to see if the legal issues can be overcome with a bit of remodeling. In the meantime, there is a nearby venue that is very interested in getting our shows and crowdbase. I will be going over to talk with the owner as soon as I get out of work to see what the terms are like. I know they serve alcohol and food, have a much larger space than Mos Eisley, are easily accessible by public transit, and have better temperature control, but I am mainly concerned with age restriction, hours of closing, etc. I want this to come together as soon as possible (if the shoe fits), and I will update tonight as to the progress. If you have any questions, consider emailing moseisleybooking@gmail.com , or ask in here. Regards, Alx "what a shitty friday" Casket |

| ______________________________ [Apr 16,2010 1:11pm - Yeti ""] well, his employment in Jabba's palace was based on his ability to make Jabba laugh once a day or he'd be eaten. i'm willing to bet the closing of Mos Eisley doesn't bode well with Jabba. |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 16,2010 1:13pm - AndrewBastard ""] He'll have to live on his skiff for the time being... |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 16,2010 1:19pm - arilliusbm ""] is the no droid policy still in effect? |
| ________________________________________________ [Apr 16,2010 1:24pm - matt_sways_in_the_wind ""] having to temporarily close a venue because too many people are showing up is great thing. that means there are limited spaces like that and you were working hard and doing the all the right things. keep up the good work, don't lose momentum and Mos Eisley will prosper again. |

| _________________________________________ [Apr 16,2010 4:28pm - bloblovesmusic ""] I was hoping to book a few shows there too... |
| _______________________________________ [Apr 16,2010 5:05pm - hauptpflucker ""] this definitely sucks, good luck with the bar |
| _______________________________________ [Apr 16,2010 5:31pm - boblovesmusic ""] You should see if unit 11 wants to host... Oh whoops nevermind |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 16,2010 6:10pm - Randy_Marsh ""] we had a show booked there apparently. this sucks. hail mos eisley. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 16,2010 7:17pm - Alx_Casket ""] FOUND A NEW SPOT: I just got back from meeting with the owner of Champions Cafe in Everett and all future shows will be booked there. The shows will be 21+ to start with, but the management is fine with 18+ shows in the future (if things go well at first). I'm aiming to prove that we can bring in a good crowd so that he opens it up to 18+ for a select number of shows. So in a sense, Mos Eisley Studios is now Mos Eisley Productions, since we'll be providing the operational support to make these shows happen. Some perks about the place: -less sketchy area with free parking on the main and side streets -increased capacity (can fit 3x the people as before) -there is a kitchen, which will serve up who knows what -$2 Rolling Rock drafts (for our shows only, sweet deal eh?) -literally 1 minute away from the old place, only this time it is on 3 bus lines, so easier public transportation -I will make sure that bands get treated somehow via alcohol, in addition to their regular under-the-table sexual favors -lots of places to eat (read:pizza) in the area -not in flood territory The anti-perks: -place closes at 1am (like every other bar) -not BYOB anymore -no smoking inside, but in front and on the sides of the building is totally cool -you won't die of the heat during summer shows, like you would if shows were still happening at the old Mos Eisley Tomorrow's show is hopefully the only show that will be canceled by this change, the others are all still in full effect to slay. I hope that you guys all make it to the shows that you were intending to see, and we will make sure that you have an even better time than you would at the old spot. LEGENDS NEVER DIE! |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 16,2010 7:20pm - Alx_Casket ""] Btw, the new place is 234 Main St, Everett MA. Look how close it is to our old place! |
| _________________________________ [Apr 16,2010 8:58pm - W3 nli ""] intense. |
| _______________________________________________ [Apr 16,2010 8:58pm - IllinoisEnemaBradness ""] why didn't you just wave your hands and say "this isn't the place you want to close, move along" |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 17,2010 8:07am - Randy_Marsh ""] awesome! |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 17,2010 9:11am - DestroyYouAlot ""] Sucky shit is slightly less sucky and shit. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 17,2010 9:19am - brian_dc ""] Awesome! |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 17,2010 12:13pm - hauptpflucker ""] Disaster averted |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 17,2010 3:42pm - s.axl.beckett ""] cool, now I must change all the flyers I already made for these two shows we have here. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 17,2010 4:05pm - Alx_Casket ""] I've already taken the old ones off the myspace, I'll put the new ones up as they get updated. |
