| Name: | Good To The Last Bop! |
| City: | Canada, Ontario, Toronto |
| Time: | Sat Jan 30, 2010 @ 9:00pm till Sun Jan 31, 2010 @ 5:00am |
| Description: | If any place in Toronto could be truly called the home of raving, it was the Big Bop. Within those big purple walls, uncountable friendships were formed, an incalculable amount of Jager was consumed, and thousands of nights were well and truly lived. But at long last, the time has come for the Big Bop to move on. So on Saturday, January 30th, join us as we bid a sad but fond farewell to home sweet home in the raviest way possible - the final Big Bop rave, "Good To The Last Bop!"
A tradition of years of top-notch talent continues right to the end for this farewell fiesta, with music provided by international heroes, local legends, and Big Bop favourites alike:
The Reverb:
Garbo [UK] - Devotion UK, D-Railed
We are SUPER excited to have Garbo back. His set at Total Request Rave 3 was one of the best hard house sets to date, even djOpel was in awe, and he is one jaded hard house raver! Back all the way from Derby, England, hooray for Garbo!
No Left Turn [USA] - K12 Studios
Featuring the latest tunes from his band of K12 artists and some of the most creative mixing on the planet, there's a reason that No Left Turn is regarded as North America's number one hardcore DJ! Now, he returns to Toronto to give the Big Bop a proper hardcore send off!
Lazarus - Darkrave, Panic
Lazarus is a non-stop party machine with Darkrave, Fetish Nights, Panic and Depeche Mode events! It seems fitting that the last party at Reverb, should have the promoter who has done it all in this building. We have all been to soooo many good nights of Darkrave, so we are proud to give him the last set ever in this building!
International djOpel - Deprivation Records, Fireball Records, Embedded
Opel, having proven himself one of North America's finest Hard House DJs and producers, has recently taken England by storm, with an ever growing collection of European performances under his belt! Now he's back home in Toronto to wave goodbye to the big purple monster!
Dynamic [USA] b2b Flyboy - Nocturnal Commissions
You like Happy Hardcore? You know you do! And nobody brings the Happy Hardcore like these two - founders of Nocturnal Commissions and two of the busiest names in the business, get ready to sing along for one last Big Bop anthem set!
DAVEoftheRAVE b2b Xphox - Nocturnal Commissions
Nocturnal Commissions is a strong team, and here are two of the strongest reasons! Whether it's breakbeat madness or hands in the air hardcore, expect the unexpected from these two NC scions!
Mizz Lee & Lucy Ford - Embedded, CHC, Nocturnal Commissions
One final main room set from the lovely ladies of drum and bass! These girls have smashed the disco at every NC and Embedded event, and are ready for one last bop!
RollsRoyce - Ron Paul
Whether it's shutting down Yonge Street or shutting down the Federal Reserve, RollsRoyce is your man! Just wait til RollsRoyce shows you what he can do with his 12"!!
Holy Joe's:
The Dork Knights (Reunited at last!) - CHC, Airhead
Holy shit! You never thought you'd see the day, but this legendary matchup returns one last time for a final Big Bop farewell set of slammin' Happy Hardcore!!!
The Buzz - TDSK, CHC
After poppin' hardstyle boners all over Darkrave in November, the hardstyle superposse known as The Buzz is ready for one last brewhaha. The Bliz from Hamilton and Fuzzboy from Toronto are packing the big guns for this huge night!
Bacchus - Steel records, Derbe Records, Big Kahuna
Local legend Bacchus is the man who showed Toronto the meaning of Hardstyle - now, get ready for him to open your eyes to what a world-class DJ can do!
Dubcomm - DCS905, CHC, 89.5FM
Known for an intense selection of dark edged tech-drum and bass and high energy performances, Dubcomm provides a relentless assault of mind altering beats at every opportunity. Poor Holy Joes wont know what hit it!
Xofer - Embedded, xofer.com
He has been with Embedded from humble beginnings in the basement of Surface Nightclub 5 years ago. Only seems fitting that we provide the honour of last set ever in Holy Joes to Xofer. Who knows that The Dirt will have up his sleeve for the last hour in Holy Joes!
Restricted Viewing - Brain Cell
The Brain Cell boys were a huge a part of the Big Bop community, and it just wouldn't be proper to send off the Bop without a set from these trancemasters and Bounce heroes!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Due to overwhelming response and limited space, as of 10PM Eastern time today (Tuesday, Jan. 26th), we are CLOSING the reduced/out of town list. If you are already on the out of town list, or sent us an email before 10PM Eastern today, your reduced code and admission WILL be honoured. But no more names will be accepted.
If you have a ticket, you WILL be granted admission to the party. A fresh batch of tickets was dropped off at Shanti Baba a few days ago; when that batch is gone, NO MORE tickets will be sold.
However, if you have an out-of-province ID, but did not make it onto the out of town list in time, we will still ensure that you gain entry to the party.
Otherwise, I recommend coming VERY early.
We do want to ensure that everybody who wants to go can go, but we also want to make sure that you have enough room to dance.
Don't be late!
If you are on the out-of-town/reduced list and you WILL NOT be able to make it, please let us know so we can offer your space to somebody else
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
$20 AT THE DOOR
This final Big Bop rave is brought to you by Nocturnal Commissions and Embedded - the team that brings you the world-renowned Total Request Rave every year - which means you can expect all the trimmings, including:
- World class decor from our own Dream Builders!
- TRIP and Happy Rave booths!
- EMS for your safety!
- Fresh fruit and candy all night to keep your energy up!
- The traditional NC Kandie Kontest - dress your brightest to win the prize!
- Free CDs and other giveaways!
- And most important of all, that one-of-a-kind, high-energy, bright-purple, mega-friendly vibe that YOU bring to each and every one of our events!
This event is for ravers 16 and older; please bring your ID no matter how old you are to ensure access. There is a 19+ licensed area which needs to be emptied out of alcohol. Bring your spare livers.
*Show your support - wear something PURPLE*
PLUR, ROAR, and ONEMOREGROUPBOP in full effect!
ATTENTION - IF YOU ARE ON THE REDUCED/OUT-OF-TOWN LIST - every event we have about a third to a half of our out-of-town reservations not show up. That's fine - we understand that things come up or people forget, and we usually encourage people to sign up even if they're not sure about coming, just in case. However, because of the massive response to the Last Bop rave, there is a very real chance that the no-shows will deny somebody else the chance to attend.
We have thought long on this and we've decided on a solution. Your out-of-town reservation code WILL reserve you a space in this sold-out event as promised. HOWEVER, after midnight we can no longer guarantee your admission and will release your spot to the general public under the assumption that you will be a no-show. If you are on the way to the party and will arrive after midnight, text - do not call - the infoline at 647-520-1848 with your reduced confirmation code numbers and estimated time of arrival and we will note it on our sheet and continue holding your ticket! We will not respond to your texts - we will be much too busy - but we will be receiving them and recording them.
If you have reserved an out-of-town code but you are now sure that you are NOT coming, please email us at Reduced@NocturnalCommissions.com up until the party starts, or text the infoline to let us know so we can make your spot available to somebody else.
If you are not on the out-of-town reduced list but you have an out of province ID, you will not be turned away - you will pay the full door price of $20, however.
If you are NOT on the out-of-town list and you did NOT get a ticket, arrive early! There is a limited amount of space reserved for last minute attendees; additionally, at midnight, any spots reserved for out-of-towners that have failed to show up or contact us WILL be opened up, which will free up additional room for you to enter.
Please understand that these changes are for your safety and enjoyment, always our top priorities. We will NOT oversell the venue by 300 people. We will be staying within the legal capacity. Rest assured that we are taking steps to open up additional space to help accommodate the expected turn out.
As always, we at NC and Embedded believe that every rave should present the opportunity to be the best night of your life. This Saturday might be yours. Don't miss it! Arrive early. Stay late. Enjoy the Big Bop one last time.
