no, as far as we are aware they are focussing all their energy on cova santa's woomoon that day. there might be changes, but for now I don't think there will be a regular event at amnesia on sunday nights.
wow. amnesia of all places closing the club every sunday even during peak season is huge. no recipe against cream and solly.
Joint 1st post of the year.I genuinely don't get what you mean by saying 'amnesia of all places'...?
okay, so first things first. I haven't said they will be closed every sunday even during peak season. it might be the case, but this isn't confirmed yet and we all know things can change quickly here.
but I think this is a really interesting subject to discuss: not so long ago most of the clubs used to have a night off (some even more). having a 7/7 nights programming is a pretty recent phenomenon (say last decade). if amnesia in the end decide to stay closed on sundays (or if any other club would decide to stay closed on one night per week), this directly has a list of consequences, which actually aren't all negative. sure, you don't make a single penny that night. BUT: if you open a club 6 nights out of 7, then from the very start of the season each and every employee knows their day off (in amnesia's case it would be sundays). this makes it super easy to plan - you don't need to hire any extra staff, everyone simply knows they work from mon to sat and sun is off. no chief of staff having to plan shift plans etc. it is a very cost-effective solution. plus, in amnesia's case, they do a super long woomoon season at cova santa this year, end of may to start of october from what I know. this means that some of the amnesia staff that want to earn some extra bucks will then work at cova santa on sundays - pretty clever I think.
the simple truth is, no club on the island has more than 4 or 5 nights a week where they REALLY smash it. and traditionally, every club has at least one really weak night a week, often even 2. and if you take this fact into consideration, it sort of starts making sense to ponder as to whether you want to earn less (meaning possibly lose money) by staying open and having a weak night or instead directly spend less (but not lose any money) by staying closed. it's a numbers game and if you play it right, staying closed might actually get you a better result at the end of the season.
I know we aren't all massive MusicOn fans, but some good club room nights in the listings. Still some big names there, but I like some of the lesser known names there too. Thoughts?

Think we are definately seeing a shift in styles this year with a big decline in EDM in this year in the lineups.
Ushuaia for example was the home of ‘everybody ffffin jump’ EDM until recently with onlyMusic so bad you have to be told when to dance
hows the 3am closing time going down with owners / workers and punters?
probably a little early to tell really.
let's not forget not all of san an closes at 3am - places like itaca will still be able to stay open until 5.
I thought Itaca closed, or is closing after this year?
Or did I completely misinterpret something
