The First Class team wanted to throw a large scale party. Darius & Derek browsed Boston's venues, looking for a location to transform into a nightclub. They finally arrived at the Epi-Center in Boston, a venue that Derek had DJ'd at in the past. The Epi-Center is a large art studio commonly rented out for Weddings, Mitzvahs, Proms, and Sweet 16's.
Epi-Center, Boston
The capacity of the venue (1,000) was large enough to throw the party Derek was envisioning. Derek's vision was creating a party which resembled a warehouse rave that commonly happens in New York City. These parties are underground, out of the public eye - making them completely insane. Darius & Derek signed the contract to lease the venue for November 28th 2009. One year earlier, on November 22nd, Derek had hosted Throwdown, his first party ever.
The First Class team ended up leasing about 30 movers (club/concert lights) for the event. Having that many lights made their cultivated nightclub the best lit venue in the entire city of Boston that night. We brought in the best sound equipment available, furniture, & of course First Class dancers ; )
