Judgement Sundays becomes.........

Judgement Fridays!

Unfortunately I can't reveal the source, but I do have it on very good authority.

The Judge clears a few things up:

(A brief note from Jules about Judgement Fridays)

Dear Judgement fans

The story behind the Friday move is that I asked the previous owners of the club for the move as long ago as last September. This was because of my legal career. Although I don't start working on Mondays until after this season is over, I wanted the full 2013 season on Fridays with my eye 100% on the ball before 2014, when ...I'll be working five days a week as a lawyer and therefore less able to concentrate on Ibiza (albeit with a good team to do so on my behalf.) The previous owners had many excuses why we shouldn't move.

I now realise it was because they were trying to sell the venue and didn't want the uncertainty of their biggest night moving putting off the new buyers. In the end, Eden was sold very late in the day, with the final paperwork only being completed a month ago. By this point I'd given up on Fridays and we'd booked 10 consecutive nights with Ferry Corsten on Sundays, plus some others on the different Sunday dates.

Clearly, the issue of Fridays had been mentioned to the new owners by the old ones, as the new owners immediately asked that Full On Ferry and us promote separately, telling us that they'd heard that we were prepared to move to Fridays.

There are big upsides to Fridays:

1. The Ibiza market is now massively dominated by weekend breaks and not full week holidaymakers, making Friday a much better night.
2. There is little competition.
3. I can continue doing it in 2014 and beyond, which I couldn't on Sundays.

The downside is obvious:

We had an extremely short time to get line-ups together.

Having said that, it's given me an opportunity to focus on the newer Djs I really rate in 2013, whose productions I've been playing, the majority of whom I've succeeded in booking for JF. We're going to be charging a hugely reduced €25 entry with cheaper drinks prices, so I'm very confident. Along with a high tech upgrade and renovation of Eden the new owners have put in over one million euros, turning the club into a state of the art super club to compete with the best in Ibiza for 2013.

Cheers,
Jules
 
that MOS creche party night is not listed on the Eden website currently
- no details for the Friday party as yet


interestingly
the Judge's own website gig listings has the Judgement Fridays as "San Antonio" no specified venue

I was merely guessing that Fronty had seen Bezs breaking news tweet.

It seems whoever is doing the Eden website updates has removed the Creche part from the friday clubnights url.

putting two and two together and coming up with F

- Judge Jules not listing Eden as the JF location
- Creche having a page on Eden website (albeit currently inaccessible)


sounds like it could be a goer


although - who will be next weeks Fridays at Eden party? (Kisstory, JF, Creche.....)
 
The event with SJ, RM & Goldfish is the day before and listed as a preview not the opening party. I can see it being something different all together.

The Judgement Friday site is currently down, and all links just return back to the Judge Jules site.

just noticed Jules is down to play at minstry on friday 2nd august. Along with JF @ eden.

Now he could do an early set in london, and make it to ibiza for a late set, but he would be hard pushed!
 
Taken from Eden's website today:

"The announced preview party that was scheduled for Thursday June 27th, will unfortunately not be able to take place due to unexpected building delays.
Not to worry though, we will make sure you will not be disappointed at our spectacular official opening on the 7th of July featuring Ferry Corsten and his FULL ON concept to kick off this summer's hottest new club on Ibiza where Ferry plays unique back2back sets with his DJ friends Markus Schulz, Sied van Riel and John O'callaghan.
Michael van de Kuit: “As we do not want to compromise in quality, we had to make the decision to cancel our preview party. We want to present you the new Eden with the official opening at its very best!”
As Eden is located at one of the top locations on undoubtedly the most famous party island in the world, the club's new management decided to redesign the space to give clubbers the finest hangout where the focus is purely ‘All About The Music'. With the best and newest international line-ups every week, amazing theatre shows, a booming sound system by VOID and an interior that will transport you to a modern interpretation of the Garden of Eden.
Eden only wants the best for its visitors and will kick off the summer of 2013 with an outrageous and extravagant opening on the 7th of July. Don't miss out!"


So no preview party and I am guessing the first Judgement Fridays will be the next week now?
