Mist nightclub is now where Maya is.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
Yeah, yeah, so people don't know Old Town Scottsdale.
If you've never been to OldTown Scottsdale, it's just you
call it a square or you're likea square right.
It's just full of bars andclubs, yeah, and hotels, and at
the time it was even better.
They just now it's like hotelsand stuff.
I think it was like at the timethe W was still there, right.

Speaker 2 (18:22):
W and A loft, and that's it, and that was it, and
it was just nothing but clubsand bars and just man.

Speaker 3 (18:27):
But you said you threw one at Mist, right.

Speaker 2 (18:29):
Yeah, did Halloween party and, like I said, we had
it probably.
Like yeah, like not, peopleshow up.

Speaker 3 (18:36):
Nine hundred.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
Yeah, it was crazy, crazy event.
And then the week later theycall me into a meeting them
people probably don't even knowthis name.
This guy, Les Les, is like theowner of all those clubs yeah,
call me into a meeting and waslike, yeah, we have this place
called Suede and we have theclub that you just did.

(18:58):
You know your event at Mist,our Fridays are good, but our
Saturdays are kind of not good,right, and then our Fridays at
Suede are not good either.
You want to take them both andjust handed me you pretty much
handed me the keys, like hereyou're the promoter for both
these clubs.

Speaker 3 (19:11):
Now, really, yeah, and no less is less.

Speaker 2 (19:15):
Yeah, if the story, if people actually know who he
is, it's absolutely crazy,because they don't know who I am
, they don't know what I do.
They knew me throwing one party.
Yeah, that's that.
Come on, young black man, comeon here, take this.

Speaker 3 (19:28):
Yeah, that's impressive.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
Yeah, and it was a I've been promoting ever since.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
Now I can't, I can't say much, but if I could say all
the jokes that I want to make,that means you know he basically
was Django.
Oh shit, dude, but that's athat's a big deal.
Man and I and I actually hadbeen in Suede.
Me and Craig Visions would goto Suede.
Yeah, man, but y'all was realstrict on the dress code at one

(19:55):
point.
You know what I'm saying andyou know it was hard to get in
some points, but I used to gothere.

Speaker 2 (19:59):
I actually forgot At first we weren't even playing
all hip hop.
It was a, it was top 40.

Speaker 3 (20:04):
When was when was this way move?
When was this 2010?
10.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
OK, got you.
So we got a time we show onthat age now.

Speaker 3 (20:11):
No, no, no, we're a little sure about we're good.
Yeah, you're showing that.

Speaker 2 (20:15):
Yeah, 2010.
We started it off, but as thenights got busier and busier,
people were leaving because ofthe like we'll play hip hop.
And then, all of a sudden, it'dbe like I don't know.
Like Katy Perry get played andeverybody's like, look, look, we
should be playing this for.
So at one point we just like,oh, it's all hip hop now.

Speaker 3 (20:31):
What Well the like, what makes promoting just like
the bees knees, the bees wax,the bees juice was?
Why do you enjoy it?

Speaker 2 (20:43):
Haven't worked since 2009.
Right, haven't had a clock,haven't clocked in since then.
Now, you know, you know,specifically, promoting is not
always as what it seems.
It's tough, it's tough.
It comes with a lot of patienceIs the best word to use.

Speaker 3 (21:00):
A lot of headaches.
You've worked for a lot of alot of interesting owners yeah.
Well, what would do is thisYou're doing a sway, you're

That was a scary time in life.

Speaker 3 (21:53):
Well, why was that a scary time in life?

Speaker 2 (21:55):
Um, not Ocean 7, just not knowing where to go next.
Yeah, because, yeah, you made acertain way of living and the
way you lived was secured, andthen when they shut down, it's
just oh yeah, it was almost likeCOVID, but now we went over to

They rushed up in thatmotherfucking somehow got it
under control.
Um, I had to, you know, coverJohn's wife.

halloween, that was halloween,it was halloween, it was
halloween.
Yeah, here's halloween.

Speaker 3 (28:49):
We don't play about halloween down here.
We get down for the halloweenUm downtown.
Did you think downtown wouldwork when we were promoting?
Did you think it would work?

Speaker 2 (29:05):
Not the way it did yeah, not the way it did.
Uh, uh, it was a lot, of, a lotof terrible nights.
Um, even when true firststarted, we did true man.
We had like a good grandopening, a good month, two
months, and then thatmotherfucking died on us, yeah.
And then it took Some work.
Yeah, it took some real work.
A lot of money not from us, wedidn't.

(29:26):
At that time I had to spend themoney really.

Speaker 3 (29:27):
Oh, yes, I did.

Speaker 2 (29:30):
Oh my god, yes, I did , I forgot, um.
But yeah, man, it took a lot ofwork, a lot of effort from a
lot of people to get that thinggoing, but once it, once it got
going, it was, it was rockingand rolling, yeah it was a oil
machine.

Speaker 3 (29:41):
What would you say the difference?
This was from downtown inScottsdale.

Speaker 2 (29:44):
The amount of the amount of money people will
spend.

Speaker 3 (29:46):
Yeah, yeah, that's really though.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
That's really the only difference?
Um, I guess you no, I don'twant to say that Um, just the
amount of money people spend.
People might dress up a littlebit more in Scottsdale also.

Speaker 3 (29:56):
Yeah, we couldn't get no celebrities, no, no, no
athletes to come down, oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
I wasn't trying to say that.
Um, yeah, is that what you weresaying?
Yeah, it's the truth, thoughthey won't come.

Speaker 3 (30:05):
It's wild because downtown they didn't did a lot
with downtown, all right,downtown didn't did a lot with
it and you can't get in.
You can't get an athlete tosniff downtown outside of.
They got to play the the Sun'sarena already at the, at the, at
the diamond backs.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
It was very, very few that came in, very few yeah and
downtown is down here.

Speaker 3 (30:24):
It's not Scary, it's not spooky.
You know, I've been to downtownDetroit.
I ain't gonna say no more, Iknow.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
There's a lot of people I hear from Detroit.
They, yeah, no, they don't?

Speaker 3 (30:41):
um.
So I want I do want to get thetimeline boosted.
So we go Downtown and thenthere's a situation that happens
for you.
How do you end up becoming yourown nightclub?
You know an owner of anightclub, you own your own.
Damn it, I can't say it.

(31:01):
Your own, your own nightclub.
How does that happen?
You take us to the story.
Don't leave no details out.
How does it happen?
Man, uh man, because you whatyou 47 and you own 36, 36 and
own a nightclub.
Yeah, um me, choreo and you'reblackity, black like you own,

(31:22):
not blacky black in a bad way.
But I'm saying like brothersget a chance hey you know,
listen.
I just don't get a chance tosee you.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
I want you to hear this, bro, I told you I was
looking at pictures from myfirst event.
Yeah, I was just going throughmy timeline.
Yeah and this person yesterdaytold me, dang shade actually
looks like skin next to you andI was like, oh, I'm not.

Speaker 3 (31:43):
I'm not bro, not at all, not even yeah, for sure,
for sure Next to me.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
But I'm sorry, I just had to throw that out there and
mess me up a little bit um.
Oh, uh, club me me choreobootleg kev.
Um, we were going back andforth on the location.

Speaker 3 (31:59):
Yeah because we had a potential opportunity of doing
something downtown, Uh and thenwe had two locations involved,
or was it three, or was it more?
Three, mm-hmm three.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
Um, downtown, we, it just didn't seem to make sense.
Yeah because we knew if we'dopen something to scoste or
grawlers of where it was, it'sscoste, so it's, it's going to
Do great, right, um?
So we opened up a llc and thenit was a search to find the
liquor license.

(32:31):
And the liquor license came andthen after that it was just
pretty much Be quiet, don't tellnobody, or don't tell a few
people, uh, or lie to them,telling that we're opening
somewhere else.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (32:42):
Yeah, and that, uh, that somewhere else got pretty
popular because people can'thold water.
Um, yeah, uh.
And then, yeah, we announced uh, oh, actually, man, we made a,
we made a page, said,international was coming back
and it managed so much attention, um, and we were gonna bring
international back.

Speaker 3 (33:01):
We're made to change from we had to.

Speaker 2 (33:04):
Oh yeah, yeah, we had to, but you know we're happy.
We're happy with the 1111 name.

Speaker 3 (33:08):
It uh, it's ours yeah that process for the liquor
license was.
That was that gangster, wasthat tough, very much so.

Speaker 2 (33:14):
Yeah, yeah, because you can't be a felon, um, you
can't be a felon on the liquorlicense.
You can't, man, you can't do alot of stuff, um, and it's a lot
, a lot of money.
Yeah it's a lot.

Speaker 3 (33:30):
Hey, you want to talk about how much you pay for the
liquor license.
Nope, 100,000.

Speaker 2 (33:40):
But if you try to go on, if you, if anyone tries to
buy one now because the pricegoes up, it seems like all the
time.
Yeah, I look at license.
If you can probably get one,it's probably like 250 grand,
hmm.

Speaker 3 (33:50):
Yeah, Sheesh weesh 200 grand?
I don't know it's gonna bestill yeah, it's still gonna hit
, it's gonna range, yeah, it'sstill gonna hit.
So you set it on location, um.
And you got two other partners,booleg.
And you got Corey, who was uh,vip enterprises, uh, um, mr VIP
az, on instagram.
And you got Booleg Kev, thevery famous Booleg Kev Um, who

(34:13):
just got his uh Radio show, ifI'm correct, is just um taken
off to another step, anotherhigher level Um, how do you even
know?
Oh, booleg.

Speaker 2 (34:26):
Kev.
Uh, he DJ'd with us.
Um, he's DJ for Corey forever.
Yeah, but, um, when we did theocean seven thing, he was our DJ
there every saturday.
Yeah, um, he was on the radiothen and just became came
brothers, friends.
That's what's up.
Yeah, cuz it was 12 years ago.
Keep showing that age man, ohyeah, just showing that age.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
I'm trying to stop you from showing the age, I'm
just saying, how you know, we'vebeen rocking for a while.
Numbers on it a little funkyman.
So you uh locked in with yourthree guys and when you set on a
location, what made you choosethe location that you guys
landed on?

Speaker 2 (35:05):
We would have been open for Super Bowl.
That's really what it was.

Speaker 3 (35:08):
Yeah, super Bowl was a big deal, yes, it was by any
means necessary.

Speaker 2 (35:11):
We need to be open by then.
Yeah, yeah OK.

Speaker 3 (35:14):
It.
Gutting that thing out, becauseI remember it used to be Paris
before it turned into 11, 11nightclub.
And gutting that thing out.
What was the process for that?
I mean, seriously, you say yougot a location and it needs to
be gutted.
I mean, what was the first stepyou took for it?

Speaker 2 (35:37):
Oh, what was our first step?
Taking pretty much all thelighting down.

Speaker 3 (35:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (35:41):
We took all the lighting down and destroyed all
the booths.
Yeah, man, it was just prettymuch clear out the whole
building.

Speaker 3 (35:48):
Yeah, I know you sent me a lot of ideas about
different looks and stuff likethat.
How'd you land on the look?
Who helped you with the look.

Speaker 2 (35:56):
Her name is Kelly.
I don't know what her businessname is.
Yeah, yeah, kelly, her name'sKelly.
I actually did an interviewwith her.

Speaker 3 (36:03):
If you go back to 2020, you'll find an interview
with her.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
Ok, yeah, she's an interior designer.
She actually helped us outtremendously, yeah, but she
pretty much got us the layout ofthe club.
The lights of the club wereinternational and then the side
lights of the club were anotherclub that we're not going to
talk about.
Yeah, we got that idea from.

(36:25):
I mean, it was a lot of hours,lots and lots of hours in that
slot trying to get everythingfigured out.

Speaker 3 (36:31):
So so we talking about, do you, do you have like
a hand in, like you know?
Even ask me something, Wow noman, no man, I mean.
So I remember the name process1111, because you know there's
another club is 1111.
But you felt like there wassome some separation from it.

(36:54):
I'm assuming that's how youlanded on.

Speaker 2 (36:57):
There's a their spell that 11.
Yeah, yeah, ours is numbers.
There's probably another 1111somewhere.

Speaker 3 (37:03):
It is.
1111 is a popular man.
It's a popular thing.

Speaker 2 (37:06):
So go nationally.
You look to see who owns thatname.
It ain't going to be nobodywith us, so that's all that
matters.

Speaker 3 (37:15):
That's all that matters when Super Bowl lands,
because I know that that journeyto get the club up and
functioning before that Well,you opened up New Year's Eve for
was that going into 2023?
Right, as you open up NewYear's Eve, yeah, yeah, yeah,

(37:36):

They made us take these clouds down.
Then you walked in the entrance.
They want us to take down, likethe grass stuff on the walls.

Speaker 2 (37:53):
When it comes to Opening man, they were actually
surprisingly very, very nice andlenient with us.
Really, yeah, it was, it wassuper simple.

Speaker 3 (38:04):
That's cool.

Speaker 2 (38:04):
Yeah, the only.
Yeah, they were simple.
Only issue we ever had reallywas a who was our sexy rat?
My God, oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (38:14):
Yeah, yeah, I got you .
Super Bowl comes.
We the the booking process forthat, because a lot of people
don't know how bookings work.
And I'll use Super Bowl to,because it's big time, big names

That's cool yeah.
A lot of times now because therelationship either me, corey,

Aaron Rodgers didn't respond itand just pretty much made it
even more weirder.

I was sitting there thinking ofmyself.
I was like I've never reallylistened to Aaron Rodgers speak
and I was like I don't like thisdude Really.

(52:22):
And I was a great quarterback,fantastic quarterback.

Just chase, because most of thetime it's textable, but most of
the time it's textable.

Speaker 3 (53:16):
Usually when people call multiple times, there is a.
There's an importance to it.
Would you like?

Speaker 2 (53:22):
to prove this, would you like to do a live phone call
?

Speaker 3 (53:24):

fantastic podcast is becausewhen he did come to
international, he promised me apair of his shoes and he never
followed through.

easy?

I was warned this but I didn'tbelieve it.
But it's actually causedrelationship issues with people.

Speaker 3 (01:01:27):
Explain.

Speaker 2 (01:01:29):
Uh, people don't realize that I'm part owner.
They just think I'm owner so Ican just do whatever the hell I
want and I can't.
We have a team.
So if one of my team memberssays, nah, I don't want this,
they don't understand that I'mnot going against the team,
regardless of who you are, evenif I am going against the team.

(01:01:52):
I have three partners.
So if two of my partners arelike, ah, we don't like this one
, then that's what it is.
And people don't understandthat at all.

Speaker 3 (01:02:02):
We found that a lot of folks have their energy has
changed towards you.

Speaker 2 (01:02:17):
No, not inside the building.

Speaker 1 (01:02:19):

Outside.
What do you mean?
The people I actually careabout.
There's been a few people therethat have changed.

Speaker 1 (01:02:27):
I'm just like ah, you know that kind of sucks.

Speaker 2 (01:02:30):
But for the most part , the people I actually talked
to on a daily basis were stillthe same, ain't really?

Speaker 3 (01:02:34):
changed.
But you feel like the energy onthe outside has changed, from
people oh yeah, it's coming in.

Speaker 2 (01:02:40):
Like if they're not talking to me every day.
Oh yeah, that energy is waydifferent.

Speaker 3 (01:02:44):
Really.

Speaker 2 (01:02:44):
Yeah, for sure.
They think they just think Ican do whatever the hell I want.
Yeah, it's not like that.
Do people think you've changedat all?

Speaker 3 (01:02:53):

or just have negative energytowards you.
It's just cut it off, makeslife easier, yeah.
