Journey at Lulu – George Street – Edinburgh – Night 3
We’re still here (SWEET!) and thoroughly looking forward to this week’s installment of the increasingly popular Journey at Lulu.
I asked Andy what he had learnt from the first two nights:
“not for lack of effort in any way, we realised that our promotions had been targeted poorly and needed a rethink, we have listened to some good advice and have approached things differently this time. We are lucky to have a friend in Gerry from Leith FM’s – The Vinyl Club, who has been giving us a plug or two, you’re doing the web stuff, we’ve got different angle for PR/flyering and are confident of a good turnout on Wednesday.”
I asked Andy to give me his pitch for the night, this is what he said – See you there – Crazy Pete
Guys this wed see`s the 3rd instalment of the Journey…….Edinburghs classiest new House tech house and electro night running from 10.00pm till 3.00 am at the ultra stylish Lulu`s under Tigerlilly on George Street.
There are drinks promos all night inc: double vodka mixer 2.00, shots of tequilla and sambuca 1.50, bottles of heineken 2.00…………………and jager bombs….2.50.

Journey at Lulu – George Street – Edinburgh – March 18 2009
Not wanting to lie I have to admit that I couldn’t make the second night due to work issues.
So I ‘ll tell you what the guys behind it have said, reasonable turnout but not good enough. You’ll see that there is a mini interview with Andy problems in the post for night three. He talks about what he has learnt so far and how he’s looking to improve things for the future.
What I can show you from the night is a photo of the boys:
Anyone else got photo’s from night 2, please let me have them
Journey at Lulu – 1st Night – Edinburgh – George Street
It was a cold miserable night on George Street the 11th of March 2009.
I braved the howling gale and driving rain to get along to Lulu for the soft launch of Journey.
Journey is the brain child of three upcoming DJ’s named; Andy Problems, DJ Darkside and Darrell Harding.
I met the guys at the door and it was clear that the nerves had begun to set it, lets face it it aint ideal to have shit weather the night of your launch! Numbers seemed few and far between.
Darkside opened the night with a stylishly understated, uplifting and funky set, looking around you could see nodding heads and appreciative smiles.
Checking the bar the numbers were improving and those that came in were staying……RESULT!
Problems then took over the reigns with seamless ease, I’ve known Andy for a long time and I don’t think he realises just how good he actually is.
Problems carried on the vibe but stepped it up a bit, drawing the nodding heads to the multi coloured dance floor, the place was beginning to buzz.
More and more folk were showing up and it was smiles all around when our third DJ took his place.
Taking over the decks like a pro, Darrell Harding, kept the up beat funky house tunes spinning, the girls kept on dancing and the place kept on filling.
The Facts – Wednesday night – Awful Weather – 1st night – Nervous DJ’s
The end product, a perfectly produced, chilled yet funky night enjoyed by all that came……nice one guys.
Special thanks to Gerry from The Vinyl Club @ Leith FM, Nicola (PR Girl Exraordinare) and me “Crazy” Pete (Online Promotion).
To everyone that came a massive thanks, please keep supporting us and the guys will continue to serve up great nights.
