Speaker 1 (00:00):
Would you think this is a good business plan?
Speaker 2 (00:02):
All right, I'm going to start a traveling dance club
and I'm going to call it Early Birds. And my
dance club is going to be open from six pm
to ten pm and people will come. It's a nightclub, right,
people will come. I'll play. I'll play like it's not
(00:23):
gonna be real eight am heavy. It'd be like pop music, right,
or music regular club booze, Yeah, dance songs. People are
are hanging out, they're dancing, they're having fun. I call
it Early Birds. I run the dance club from six
pm to ten pm. At ten pm, do you're out?
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Last?
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Calls at nine point thirty and away we go, success
or no.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Sharks? Who's ready to dance with me?
Speaker 3 (00:57):
That cutoff time concerns me. It's such a late culture.
Some people don't even head to the clubs until after ten.
Speaker 4 (01:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
So again I'm asking you, entrepreneurially speaking, good idea or
bad idea.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
From what you presented. I'm out. I don't think so
great idea? Why these people are selling out everywhere?
Speaker 4 (01:23):
As like a so you said it's touring, So is
this like a one off thing?
Speaker 2 (01:27):
The well, I mean, there's they go in and they
set up this early bird's dance or a club, right,
and so they've taken it to a handful of cities.
Is how they started big cities right, New York, Chicago, LA.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
I think DC is on the list there.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
You are selling out everywhere, and now that with shows
that are announced, all of those are sold out.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Why are they bringing in like big time DJs.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
No, they're bringing in a DJ. Actually, I think it's
one of the owner's friends. Is the cheap Yeah, No,
nobody's bringing in. Nobody's bringing in ts though Marshmallow ain't
coming in.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
It's one of the one of the owner's friends. We're
one of the creator's friends.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
So is everyone within the club circuit self hating because
they always they could go home and go to bed.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Earlier, if you would have said does this work, I
would have said, there's no way in hell. That's what
we said. Yeah, no way in hell.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
And they're like, you get people that are like, I
want to go out, I want to go to bars,
I want to go I want yeah, I just don't
want to be out till two o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Why not? So do a lot of these people have
like babysitters. Well, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
If they have baby, they have stuff to tend to
at home. I don't know, man, I'm sure many of
them do.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
I could see where the people going out have stuff
to do, but but I could see where that's viable.
And again, go but you can go to dinner and
it's at a normal time. If you want to dance,
you're gonna be out late.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Oh so you're saying that for people who maybe have
a kid, or like a couple that has a kid
and be like, we can't go out to we can't
go out until two o'clock in the morning, So this
is good for us.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Aren't doors at a lot of those late night dance
parties at nine thirty club? Aren't doors at eleven pm?
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Yeah? A lot of them are.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
Yeah, Yeah, some babysitters have to be home by eleven. Okay,
get an older, babies grow up. These two women that
started it are making bank. And by the way, they
didn't start it. They didn't start it.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
With, hey, we have friends who have kids and they
can't get a babysitter to stay late. They started it
with I miss going out right like I can't. I'm
trying to work. I got ninety things going on. I
can't stay out till four o'clock in the morning. Exactly
what if we could be done by ten. I'm home
(03:59):
by ten thirty, quick shower, I'm sleeping by eleven, I'm
up and going to work.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
So does the promise of an end time attract people?
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Well, there's an end time at four am. Now I'm
a after party. But I mean you could leave when
you want.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
Right, But is it like because it shuts down like
a lot of people look up run times of movies
right because they want to know when will this night
be over? It doesn't mean they don't want to go
see the film, they just need to know.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
They got it.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
For scheduling reasons, we got to attack thirty minutes on
at the beginning for.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
The commercials and stuff. Remember I see those only an imax.
I'm an a lister now at AMC. So perhaps that
whin I'm just thinkings so clear? I don't well, yes
and no, yes and no.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
I do think that there is a window where you
could see that it's clear, But you also know that
you're not getting lurered in to like all right, I'll
have like the music's going I'll stay. I know it
closes at two or three or whatever.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
But clubbing nights were those nights you never wanted to end. Yeah,
unless you hated dancing. Yeah, well, which was me, but
still no. But sometimes it was fun just to go out.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Yeah yeah, I know.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Problem like we would go to we would go to
dance clubs. I'm not a big dancer. I'm not out
there dancing.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
You know, it would be awesome.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
You always be chasing that next bit of choreo, Like
if the club you were at.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Not what I was chasing, if it.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Was not your vibe anymore, or or maybe they were closing.
If you're like, where else can we dance?
Speaker 6 (05:31):
Like?
Speaker 3 (05:31):
You just wanted to keep going. So you in your
head maybe it's nostalgia, certainly playing it's it's familiar song,
but you remember those days where you saw the sun
come up?
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Okay the no, no, I mean I get what you're saying.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Like when I lived in Houston, we would go we
would go to this place called Numbers all the time.
I'm not out there dancing a new wave, but like
I mean, I like the music, right, I like Dead
or Alive and and Depeche Mode and all that the
music was great, but I wasn't out there, you.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Know, like dancing.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
What is that that you're doing? Now, That's why I
don't dance. So I wasn't out there dancing. But I'd
like going or sixty four hundred or any of those.
And then in La we would go there was there
was a couple of there was a couple of like
dance clubs and stuff that we would go to in
Hollywood that were awesome. We'd go to the Palladium in
New York it was great. I can't remember. I don't
think we went to any in Philly. Maybe they didn't
(06:26):
have any the no, I honestly, I don't remember. No,
that's not true. What was the name of it was
right next to Delilah's Den. That was the strip club
that I see Eric Lindrass in all the time. What
was the place right underage? What was the place right
next to right next to there on Delaware Avenue.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Josh, it wouldn't be there anymore. I'm just looking at
the overhead. Oh yeah, Delilah's What was the name of
that place? But like in New York, we'd go to
bar A.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I'm not dancing out there, but he was, Oh what
a night, and everybody would be answered.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
It was awesome. Barri anticipation in lake Como. Please don't
call it that. It's borre in lake Como. It's not
lake Como. It's Belmar, New Jersey.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Now I listened every Sunday morning. Can attract a breakfast
crowd at nine am once a month.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Yeah, which I don't get.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Breakfast was somebody's vomit in the outdoor volleyball pit.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Say that, but it was great. We were, Oh what
a night?
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Have They had a volleyball pit too. The it's a
beach bar right at lake Como. Nobody ever called a
bar anticipation, but we would go. We would go there.
We'd go to the hunk a bunker ballroom. That's where
I was doing oatmeal oatmeal cookie shots.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Heavy belly. Couldn't dance on that, Yeah I could. And
Diane remember where did he throw up? Often? After going there?
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Where?
Speaker 1 (07:47):
In front of whose apartment? Uh? Who? Carson Daily? Oh yeah,
threw up? Used to throw up in front of Carson
Daly's apartment.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
And then would yell hey Carson on the way up.
That's when he was dating J. L. H.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Jenniferwtt yeah, exactly, that was hot, said no one in
your group.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
No, I'll get out here. I gotta walk by Carson's place.
It's cool. I'll make it the next couple of blocks.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
But yeah, and I wasn't a dancer, but it was awesome.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
Josh is wondering if you're talking about club risque.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Or cheerleaders. See no, what is he just naming strip clubs? No?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
The only strip club we went to I used to
go with John Belais all the time is we would
go to Delilah's because we knew that we could see
half the flyers, including Lyndross, who theyd let him through
the back door.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
And you said underage before meaning the dancers are underage.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
No, lyn Dross was underage and drank like crazy.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Yeah, so yeah, everywhere long for those days. You know what,
maybe I would go, maybe I'd be all into it.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
But it sounds like yes, okay, you weren't the biggest answer,
but that was the sin was great and also stretched
beyond ten pm.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Oh absolutely, we didn't go to bar A until almost midnight.
Delilah's we barely would get to before eleven.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
And you said this, it's two people that came up
with this traveling. Yeah, these two women. But is the
cover premium? Is expensive to go?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
I don't know how much tickets are, if I'm being honest,
I don't know how much tickets are. But there's a
full bar, there's DJs and again not ts though or
a VICH who would not be able to do it anyway,
but the well he wouldn't. I mean, maybe they're playing
some of Vic's songs, but yeah, and there's bartenders and stuff.
(09:57):
They said, people are coming out and they're all sweaheady
and then they're done. Music is everything from eighties, nineties
and two thousands.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
Oh, play into your crowd.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Yeah. Well, I don't like that you say that. I
don't like that you say that.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
Well, I mean, was.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
It not everybody is going to an EDM bar?
Speaker 4 (10:17):
No, But if it's if it's like this tour and
it's a one off thing for your and your you
and your friends to go to, right, like, Hey, let's go,
let's go out, let's have an eighties night.
Speaker 7 (10:26):
You know.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Yeah see, but if you said to me, let's go
have an eighties night, I wouldn't go.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
No.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
No, that is the least interesting thing in the world
to me. If you just know I'm being serious. But
if you said, hey, we're going to a dance club,
I would go.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Yeah, I would go. I would hope I would know.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
I would hope I'm not I would hope I'm not
getting all like electro house music. But I would go.
But at the second you told me it's eighties night,
I wouldn't go.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
But I feel like for most people, just like knowing
the start and the stop timing, they want to know
the music. Yeah, they want to know what they're getting into. Yeah,
that's true comparement to head out.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
But but you can't tell me it's eighties because I
won't go if there. If I get there and there's
some songs from the eighties, I think i'd be okay. Yeah, yeah,
I think i'd be fine. Oh yeah, oh yeah, let's
go keep burns and you know what, Now I'm dancing.
(11:22):
I also like smile like there's something wrong with me
when I dance handler the like like weirdly across the room,
sat awkward.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Smile like no I am happy. Listen, I know I'm
not a great dancer. What and Philly? Was it Club Egypt?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (11:42):
That Egypt was awesome. Absolutely, I almost got beat up
in Egypt once, No, what you do? You want to
know what I did? I was sitting. I was standing
at a.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Bar talking to one of the most beautiful blonde women
I've ever seen, hand to god, not hitting on her,
but she's chatting Diane gorgeous, gorgeous tits for Miles, gorgeous woman.
There's Paul gorgeous, Miles, gorgeous woman, gorgeous Miles, unbelievable. And
(12:14):
the fact that this woman was giving me any time
at all, I was amazed. Even Belarius, who was on
TV and got laid like crazy, was like, oh my god, Elliott.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Look at you go.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
And that was until her husband showed up and tapped
me on the shoulder. And her husband was Philadelphia seventy
six or superstar Charles Barklay whoa And I thought he
was going to whip my ass, honey, I mean not
(12:48):
even like hey, son, move along.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
I thought he was gonna whip my ass, like not
goofy Charles talking to Chuck GPT.
Speaker 5 (12:58):
No, no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
He was talking to his fist and telling them punch
him in the face. And then even his wife was
like no, no, no, no, no, no, Charles, everything is fine,
is it this woman marine the hot blonde tits for miles.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Yes, Elliott, can you please stop saying that?
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Oh my god? Are they still married? Yes, married in
nineteen eighty nine.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Yes, that was before I got there. I met her
after that at the bar at Club Egypt. But the
biggest saving grace was I made no money and couldn't
afford to buy her a drink. But I sat there
and talked to her like she and I were leaving together. Wow, yeah,
you've never told us that the well what.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Am I gonna do? Hey? You want to know all
the time, Charles Barkley almost beat me up. Well now
I know one wo Yes, great call on Egypt though.
Speaker 4 (13:54):
That was it?
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Thank you, Thank you learning to I go back to
Egypt tomorrow. There's another place we didn't go early. Chuck
wasn't rolling in there at six point thirty to find
me talking to Maureen.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Hi, Elliet in the morning.
Speaker 8 (14:10):
Good morning is me?
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Who's as Hey?
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Class?
Speaker 8 (14:14):
Good morning?
Speaker 7 (14:14):
This is Anna?
Speaker 8 (14:15):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Anna? What can I do for you? You're a big
You're you're a big party girl.
Speaker 8 (14:20):
I am I used to be. So when you're asking
the class about if you think this would be a
great idea. I was like, it is a great idea.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
I would girl, see you're into it.
Speaker 8 (14:30):
You're into it definitely. I aim up a mother and
two kids under can And here is why most of
parents don't have kids during the day. They're in school
ding daycare. It's easy for us to find someone to
watch the kids during daytime, right, It's really difficult to
have somebody to watch the kid a night, or even
(14:52):
to trust somebody to wash your kid over night. So
this would be a great idea. And if you're looking
at the parents of a different generations, like you said,
from the eighties, nineties and now, everybody will.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
Show up like I think of like like a friend
of mine, Natasha, Like she used to go clubing all
the time. I bet she would go. I bet she
would go. She was die hard into club and I
bet she would be there tomorrow.
Speaker 7 (15:20):
What a good look at.
Speaker 8 (15:23):
The daytime party that the sea has brunches and all
that stuff they are all with.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
You know what, that's a good point. That is a
good point. And look at the video from inside there,
and you know what you want me?
Speaker 1 (15:34):
You want me to get what? Thank you anna? You
want me to get every guy there loaded with chicks.
It does look like it's not fifty to fifty.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Oh no, it's more of a it's it's there's more
women than dudes, but dudes will show up.
Speaker 5 (15:55):
You do.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
What you don't want is a big sausage fest. When
in your life have people ever wanted that? I mean,
I could probably think of some occasions. I mean, Delilah's
was a sausage mask. By the way, Josh went to
Club Egypt all the time in college.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Did he?
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Yeah, there you go, there you go. He knows that's
back when he had a tongue ringing hair. But a
little after your time there, Yes, very much. So, Hey, Maureen,
you got that. Look what you bring on her?
Speaker 2 (16:32):
I was not. I was not.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
There was nobody that looked like her that was gonna
get with me anywhere else.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Hey, you want to come back to my really small
apartment about eighteen blocks from here.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
You were there?
Speaker 3 (16:54):
Perhaps she was she drawn toy. Were you there with
someone else who was famous? Yeah, John Bealaris, No, but
with someone else there? Yeah, she was waiting on her husband,
Charles Barkley. The no, no, Danny wasn't with me.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
No, no, no, Danny.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Danny wouldn't go out like that. No, oh no, Danny
wouldn't go out like that. The only time Danny, he
saved your life once he did. But we were at
an appearance, Danny would go Danny wouldn't go to a club.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Unless you paid him. No, no, no, not because of
that that Joshua. Well that's no fun. No no, no
no no. But like Danny wasn't going to like a club.
There was too much trouble he could get in.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Now, if he was getting a paid appearance, he'd be
at a club every single night during my time with Danny.
Danny may be busy into clubs right now. Obviously they
need to be eighty A compliant.
Speaker 5 (17:45):
But the.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
As he goes into a coffee, no, I'm fine, I'm fine.
Line finger that finger sorry, Charles hi Ellie in the morning. Hello,
Hey this is me, Yeah, Hi, who's this?
Speaker 8 (18:11):
Hey?
Speaker 7 (18:11):
It's Jim in Pasadena.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Hey are you into it or no?
Speaker 6 (18:18):
What?
Speaker 7 (18:19):
Clubbing?
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (18:22):
No, I gotta tell you about the club in Pasadena.
Oh yeah, what you got Irv's basement bar?
Speaker 1 (18:32):
And is it a dance club?
Speaker 7 (18:35):
No, but it is because all the girls softball teams
and everything rent They rent buses and everything and go
down there and they just take it over years old.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Okay that sounds a little pervy, though, I don't need
to be there with the girls softball team.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Line two, Hi Ellie in the morning.
Speaker 6 (18:58):
Hiy, this is Kelsey.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
Hey Kelsey, how are you?
Speaker 2 (19:01):
I'm good?
Speaker 6 (19:02):
So I was calling because the Flash Nightclub in DC
does like these sundown parties. I think they're like once
a month all summer. But we went last year and
you go at like I don't know, three o'clock or something,
and yeah, they have a couple of DJs come on
and then you know, it's done by like nine or ten,
like I was home asleep at eleven, which yeah, I
have a sun so it was awesome, Like but now
(19:25):
drugs three o'clock and then just party for a while.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
A girl, A girl? Hey, can I ask you this though? Like,
what was it during the week It's not a weekend thing. Okay,
this was on like a Saturday, but three.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
O'clock in the afternoon and you're in there doing like
shrooms and stuff.
Speaker 6 (19:44):
Sure, shrooms other things.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Yeah, exactly? Did you get the sense? So nice? This
traveling club?
Speaker 2 (19:52):
I didn't rule it out. Yeah, I didn't rule it out.
It just when you think of like club drugs. Like
when you think about I'm going to roll on, you
don't think like, oh, it's six fifteen, I better start
rolling because I got to be out of here by ten.
Speaker 7 (20:06):
Like you don't think of it.
Speaker 6 (20:08):
I feel like naughty, But you're like, it's so weird.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Let me give you an example, and it makes sense.
But it's a different city and it's a different type.
But remember they turn all the night clubs into day
clubs in Vegas. And remember we saw all those people
s faced hammered at three o'clock in the afternoon. But
that's a little different.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
They also many of those places have pools.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Exactly exactly like Club Wet, And so I was like
that talking to Barclay's wife the but yeah, it's all
it's all a little bit different. But I do like
that idea. And I think I think that this this
early bird's party. I don't think it's a weekend thing.
I think it's a week night thing.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
I think it's good for people that can do that.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Maam, it's ten o'clock. What time did you go to
bed last night?
Speaker 6 (20:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (20:56):
About that?
Speaker 6 (20:57):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
So you leave the club at ninety five, you get
home a little bit of a webhead from dancing. You
and I have been grinding minutes. They played rock set
and then yeah, we're ready to go. Come on, it
ain't that bad.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
No, no, I can. I can probably get down with that. Yeah,
it's a it's a good time day partying is where
it's at at the stage.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Yeah, exactly. And by the way, you we already did, Molly.
I mean listen, we were grinding against each other.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
We're good to go.
Speaker 6 (21:25):
Yeah, probably gonna sleep pretty crappy. The next day at
work will be rough, but it was worth it.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Whatever.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Just slow roll, you're type in. You'll be fine, You'll
be fine, all right, very good, very good. Thank you, ma'am,
thank you.
Speaker 7 (21:38):
Oh hell yeah
Speaker 6 (21:42):
Yeah, bubbyy
