I have been trying to find a good location for the members to enjoy, yet I have many difficulties in selecting a date and place. I have gotten feedback from members that having an event every month and a half is good, but I also have gotten feedback that I don't have enough events. In addition, people tell me that they like going to the same place because it makes it feel like "nuestro bar" but others say that I need to have variety.
I once read a quote that said: "I cannot give you advice to succeed ... I can only give you advice to fail: Try to please everyone."
I guess I should start following this quote and try to go with gut feeling.
The other part of the chaos is working with locations and dates: Most good lounges/bars/clubs have their calendar full 3 months in advance. I wanted to have a party in April and another in May, but one location wants end of April and the other wants early part of May. (I do want to have at least 2 weeks in between events). Hopefully something opens up and I can have events at least 3 weeks in between.
One thing I do want to point out though .. seeing the process of creation from nothing to a great night is an amazing feeling. Currently there are no plans for April's event, but by mid April, people will be having a blast somewhere in San Francisco. I don't want to sound corny but it is somewhat magical. ;)

The chaos of planning the next event

I like the Latin flavor the parties have, lets see the outcome of joining some other music djs, id rather keep it latino a morir.
The event in April, Noche de Primavera, was too much fun! The music was great and the energy was felt through the skin!
Mr. Smith's was too small for us now, should I start restricting people at events and make it a private event only? Or look for bigger venues?
