Far be it for me to complain about a place I do truly genuinely like but on Saturday I had some unfortunate shit happen to me outside of Churchill's. I went to attend the laptop battle pretty excited about seeing what seems to be a new form of music evolution. After finding a parking spot I began walking to the car when the prototypical bum begins asking for money. I informed him I only had $20's so I would catch him on the way out if he was still around. As I walked away I heard him mutter some explicatives but didn't bother trying to listen.
I have to admit I wasn't terribly impressed with the battle itself. While there were some interesting characters performing I was let down by the fact that some people actually had made pre-recorded MP3's and just hit play on their media player and danced around likg fucktards. The videos I saw online were more impressive with people using synths and ableton live. To add insult to injury as we were leaving the venue we were stopped and told by someone we had a flat tire. Brand new car, brand new tires. The angry bum from the start of the night outside of Churchills shanked my tire. So I'm calling the owners out. If your gonna have bums wandering around your venue then at the very least hire someone to walk around and watch for shady shit. Don't leave your patrons hagning to fend for themselves.
BUT
it's a little unfair to point the finger of blame at churchills when
1- the parking lot (with the double deckers) next door and next to sweat are owned by the very same owner of churchills who could very well put a $5 parking sign up and up it to $7 on busier nights, forcing people who don't have the cash to park further away from the venue and into harms way. he's even had offers in the millions for the lot next door but has refused them to keep parking for his customers.
2 - there are guys who hang out in the parking lot and watch the cars - they're not bad people. some of them have other odd jobs they do. they just hang out there at night for a couple of extra dollars. i think they do their best to control the crazies that would do things like slash tires.
3 - aint no place safe no more. i had my car window bashed in and shit stolen in a bright as day parking lot on 14th with cops strolling around, before midnight even? park on the beach and get your shit towed or pay veritable highway robbery prices for safe parking. you're not even safe in kendall anymore, with some stalker rapist on the loose the other day.
::sigh:: it's a sad, sad world.
wow, what a motherfucker lol
