Create Your Own Pub Experience: Draft Thread

[Donoghus]

Here's the ruling on Edgar's Pick:

If he'd like to keep the pick Edgar is allowed to have as his activity - a Live DJ room. This means he's the only one that would have a Live DJ and the things that generally come with a DJ (strobe lights, etc.)

He will not get the rights to 'dancing.' It's immaterial, unenforceable, and I think it could potentially take this draft in a direction I don't want to see it go.

Is he the only one allowed to have an allocated dance floor, as well?  I get the position "we can't stop people from dancing" (although that's not really true).  However, bars don't all have to *encourage* their patrons to dance, and as such, Edgar should be the only bar owner with a dedicated dance floor of any nature.

Yes. Room 112 is screwed. The Roots and Prince are gonna think playing that bar is gonna be like playing high school auditorium, because everyone will remain standing.

I will not have a dance floor, but i will have a hardwood 20x20 space below the spot where the band plays that is separate from my tables and chairs and bar, that will be the 'activity space', where people can do whatever they darn well please. 

Boom!

Ya, that's my problem with 'dance floor,' pretty open for interpretation.

Is it really?  Everyone knows what a dance floor is.  IP is just trying to act clever.

If the bar clears space to allow people to dance, it's promoting dancing.  I think Edgar's pick precludes that (or at least, Rondo2287 ruled that way.)

That's like saying "We, as a bar, are going to provide our patrons with a ping pong table, 20 plastic cups, a bunch of cheap beer, and a ping pong ball.  Whatever they choose to do with those items is up to them, but we're not promoting any particular activity." That's not open to interpretation, in my mind.

Providing open space for dancing = promoting dancing.  Bars can't stop patrons from dancing, but they don't have to promote it.

And again, I apologize for being such a dipweed about this, but the attorney in me feels the need to stand up for Edgar here.    I'll officially shut up now, though, since the point has been made, and what people choose to do with it is up to them.

I see a dance floor as something other than space infront of stage, but maybe thats just me.  


This is what I picture edgar's as

Thank you.  He has actually made me laugh so hard that it literally hurt!

Yes he is the only one with a dedicated dance floor.  Although I don't think keeping people from dancing when we all have live music acts is realistic.

Alright, fair enough.  I think that's what he was going for in the first place.

yes it is

its good to have my lawyer with me on this one

see i only have to agree hahahaha


p.s.

Hey you steel have head banging, dancing on tables, air guitar  and some other beauties I will come after later,..... Have fun with that

But, if "dancing" isn't allowed, then amend Edgar's pick to Live DJ + Dance Floor.  However, on his behalf, I do think "dancing" should be allowed as an activity.

Well, to be more direct about the way I interpret these things:

Darts are real physical things (dart boards, darts), pool is a real physical thing (pool table, balls, cues), cornhole, I'm told, is not an alias of Beavis, but is actually a real thing. Television is a real thing.

So, if what Edgar wants is a dance floor with rave lights to that he makes his bar into an everynight Ibiza party, that's cool, and nobody else can do that.

But you can't monopolize 'dancing', anymore than you can monopolize 'randoming hooking up with a 5 at 2am while thinking she's a borderline 8 because you're drunk'.

I will let you have this

Please don't give away my pick for activity to the other owners...

Here's my problem with the pick - it's just too vague.  

I think we're being overtly generous as is. He's selecting a DJ, and you're arguing Roy that he should get the exclusive rights to literally everything that relates to a 'dance scene.' Even down to dancing. Which really makes it about 300 picks not one.

Who says I'm acting, Roy?

I might be actually clever. Jerk.

I stand by my "activity space", it exists in my bar. Some days, they might play twister there. Maybe they'll play lawn darts. Who knows. Lawn darts are within my purview, right?

Darnit...I should've chosen "games that require accuracy while throwing something, and all the accoutrement that follow".

Woulda been a home-run.

[Edgar]

In other news, I am planing to have a live band too in other stage so I am not worried for all of your raising hands headbanging,now  Mosh...now I can ask for veto, you need to much space to do that and as pointed thats forcing floor room.

TY I love my pick.

 

And in all honestly Dance Floor is as much fair than TV


And StarOrien, I have a circus with 70000 acts, michael Jackson, Beatles and Kriss Angel included, and thats just being good picking not generalizing.


And what is my pub is closer to a Club, others here are closer to cheap cantinas or street bars and I am not critizycing.
