Watching paint dry...
Today everything seems to have really come together. The sripper has gone on the floor, the toilets are being papered as I type, the hall is almost finished & the ballroom is pretty complete. Today I put the bar back together & apart from washing some glasses that is ready to go.
It's strange to look at. With the absense of pictures(sorry mike) I'll do some describing for you. The stage has been put into position, although it is currently topped with chairs. Its pretty big, but has been placed to the left of the bar along the side wall. Now when acts perform the audience will hug the stage & you will be able to see whats going on from everywhere in the club. The monstrosity that was the former sound desk has gone & been replaced by a piano. It looks a little strange, as if someone has just left a piano there.
The black chairs the marlowe provided us with have gone & are now replaced by various other mismatched chairs.
The Ballroom looks incredibly large. Very bright & airy. The hall to the ballroom looks fantastic, Adam lovingly restored the panneling that was uncovered & has fitted the gaps with backlit glass.
I hope we will be finished in time. Luke will be opening us up on thursday night & I can't wait to see him & the feelings back in the club.
Our deepest sympathies go out to Stevie Wynn who got some shit on his face yesterday when he was buffing the floor. Don't worry mate, you still look pretty with nasty gungy black sludge on your face. I suspect this wasn't the first & am sure it won't be the last time this happens.
See you on Thursday.
love love
