[Neurobureau-hubs] Fwd: Place to party with 400+ people

Thu Feb 28 08:39:45 PST 2013

Pierre, 
I agree that the crocodile looks like to be the most fun. 

If we would want to have the least amount of work, it would go for this place
http://clubnocnoc.com/album-1/

Since its already open on Monday's, we could give out a couple of drink tickets to people at OHBM (they have $2 PBR). Monday is all night happy hour for them. That would certainly bring people over there. And it will also not be a "closed party". Even if you didn't have a ticket. 

They also have a dance floor and it looks like there is a small stage.

Christophe Grova et al. had a hard time with HBM's organizing committee two years ago (he and a bunch of friends opened the HBM show and were kicked out of stage pretty fast), and would certainly enjoy to get a bit more love. Christophe actually played the piano at the museum that year and I thought at the time we should have set up something more formal. So we could get that crowd onboard for sure. They're good and they're fun.
