The dance scene in Melbourne has really taken off over the past couple of years. A recent trip to Ibiza was really an eye opener and I was able to take home a few ideas and concepts that would probably work in Melbourne.

bar, in the Northern Michigan area that has year round activities.
If anyone can guide me in the right directions to make my dreams a
reality I would appreciate it. Nothing big, just something enough
to live on, a Mom an Pop kinda place, where everyone knows everyone.
A beer and shot, maybe mom can make a burger in the back kitchen for

I am finally glad there is something out there other than a book on "How to Start your own business" that has not too much to do with the Club scenario. Clubs are definately a whole other world. I am just getting started and could use help with the basics of the business plan.

The dance scene in Melbourne has really taken off over the past couple of years. A recent trip to Ibiza was really an eye opener and I was able to take home a few ideas and concepts that would probably work in Melbourne.
I am currently working in marketing and intend on setting up a bar/dance club. This site has been very useful and if anyone could recommend useful sources of information or details of their own experiences in setting up a club it would be appreciated.

Hope we can work together to build the volcano of fun of a lifetime
