Hi Amanda,
The night does not have to be on a Thursday at all, and I did consider the Wednesday as an option.
My reasoning was based on the following:
- The Thursday is already well established with many (I fear we would lose much more regulars by changing the night than having a busy venue).
- O'Donoghue
is a very popular venue, and as such I am not willing to give it up. If many people hate it as a venue, and have stopped coming altogether (though I am not sure that is the case), I am willing to offer a suitable alternative.
- Opening up a 3rd night on a Wednesday would not work, as it would mean 3 nights in a row in Aberdeen... Much better to give you all the option to dance 2 nights a week: Monday Thursday or Tuesday Thursday etc...
I fail to understand how a 3rd night could not be the answer. It would provide the perfect venue in the city centre and remove the need to ever go to O'Donoghues ever again for those that do not wish to.
It would also be another option for new members to try out Ceroc and get the bug
If you are serious about wanting a good dance space, then I would have thought that a night (any night) at the Forum would be exactly right. I am not sure why you would want O'Donoghues to close altogether as a Ceroc venue !
