Alright all you midwest heads, and heads around the us as well. A few of us have been discussing a GEJ flavored event. The ball is already rolling, and it looks like it is definitely possible that something is going to go down. GEJ is going to explode into the midwest with a strictly jungle/dnb event. The GEJ admin and I would like to hear your thoughts on what should be done, and how this could be successful. Anything!!! Spit your comments right here. Any help that could be gotten on the subject is greatly appreciated!!! Cmon people, let's get something going, and blast into the scene strong. People need to hear that jungle will never die!!!
Your thoughts on Venues, DJs, Money saving methods, Promoting, fundraising. Post it all!

...already sent you a pm....
But as I said in there, I can enlist most of the big promoting crews up here, know sound people, vj's, n some phat wisco Jungle n Dnb dj's......
As far as venue's go, I am not much help, but if needed, I could ask around.....would probably be Wisco area though.....may be easier for everyone to have an Illinois location.....but none of us old-schoolers are strangers to travel ;]
But this is a great idea n i'm sure won't be much of a prob to get off the ground n will blow the midwest the fuck up!!!!!!
BAnG!!!!!!!!! 
GEJ takin over......worldwide  j
Lets do this shit proper

First of all this a great idea, wish i'd thought of it. I think the key will be to mix the new with the old;l eg. "F.O.I. - The Seed - Kemet" and maybe "Klute - hell hath no fury" example. Perhaps not back to back but you get the idea. We can't just cater to the old heads.. I'm sure it will be fire

why not.....
just because people are young n new-school doesn't mean that they couldn't get into some quality old-school Jungle chewenz...n being surrounded by a bunch of old-school headz can't do them any wrong..
No offence, but i'm personally sick of hearing this kind of arguement out of people, as what's the difference between raves back in the day, n raves of today except for the type of music that is played.......save the stupid ass Kandi Kids who could really give a fuck about the music n are only attending events to find fucked up drugs n "freak" eachother out...... should we really mould parties around them????......maybe hand out free glowsticks n candy bracelets to make them happy......
now I know you were talking about blending nu n old musical styles, but I have to make the arguement.......what is so bad about throwing an all Jungle flavored event???...... lord knows that most every event these dayz is based around nu-school Dnb n Dubstep....... *yawn....why not break the mould n bring back the beautiful old-school Jungle vibes....if only for one night....isn't that what this site was started for in the first place.....I didn't think that I was on DnB Arena..........
.....just a thought.....

u need:
A: a venue with chill owners who can accomidate the sound!
Sports bars with large areas and pools tables that can me moved has been down with some success around my area. But the outdoor patio is key.
Or shifty clubs who arent near the traditional entertainment district.
B: enough of your own people who will support u and show up to fill out the room, so other ppl wont come back sayin the place was totally dead if shit doesnt go down so well.
this really kills the start up IMO
C: dj's willing to do it for cheap who kick ass and want to help out the success of a party like this.
i think parties in Toronto are just too easy to host. so my advice might be weak, but those 3 are the best i could come up with.
