Hi Walnut, We have spoken to Karma Management, they have assured us that they will be able to handle the situation. We will try our best to ensure we can party as late as possible but there is always a possibility of it being otherwise depending on the situation at that moment. Nothing in life is predictable. regards Darpan "Every man has his own destiny: the only imperative is to follow it, to accept it, no matter where it leads him." -Henry Miller, The Wisdom of the Heart walnut <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Dear GB New Year's Party Organizer.
Very recently I have read in Mid Day that on 31st eve. COPs will force discotheques and music bars to stop their music by 1:30 AM and allow food and drinks to be served until 5 AM. In such case do you really think that our GB party can go on without any Music until 4 AM as mentioned in your email? Is the appropriate care being taken to handle this situation, because everyone will be in a party mood and we dont want COPs to spoil our new years party. I am expecting couple of my Gay friends to arrive from Bangalore just to attend our GB party and if COPs wouldnt allow the music to be played beyond 1:30AM then it will turn out to be very expensive affair for those who are travelling to Mumbai just to attend our GB party. Plz. do not filter out this email and let others also share their views on this. Awaiting your response to my email.

Time: 9 pm to 4 am. Cover Charge: Rs 1600. Bring in the New Year with GayBombay at one of our favourite venues. Check details below for the great deal Karma is offering. The Cover Charge includes unlimited hard and soft drinks (as listed below) plus dinner (which will be served in a special lounge area located next to the main dance area). *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Many people are wondering how Karma intends to handle the New Year crowd. GB had a comfortable party there last New Year's Eve when the number of people attending was 430. Keeping the comfort of revellers in mind the Karma management has made available to us the banquet room, adjoining the main pub, which is centrally air-conditioned. This room is larger than the pub. This room will be the lounge where partygoers can sit and relax. This room will have a full-service bar and dinner will be served here. Starters will be served in both areas. The speakers in this room will be connected to the main DJ console in the pub; the volume of the music here will be played at a lower level. Partygoers, therefore, will have a choice: to dance with the crowd in the main pub or relax (and even dance) in the comfortable lounge. The general consensus is that about 500 persons will be able to move comfortably within the two spaces. So, COME EARLY! The GayBombay Team hopes to see you at the party and wishes you a Happy New Year. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* The Cover Charge includes: ` Unlimited Soft Drinks, Whisky, Gin, Vodka, White Rum, Dark Rum & Beer. ` Starters (served from 10 pm to 1 am). ` Dinner and Dessert (served from 12 midnight to 3 am). *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* The Cover Charge DOES NOT include: Diet Coke/Pepsi, Tonic Water, Juice & Mineral Water.

Many people at the party may be "newbies" (those still coming to terms with their sexuality and/or those who have mustered the courage to come to such a party for the first time). We request you to be sensitive to the comfort levels of others and to behave and dress accordingly. ` No dark rooms and no sex on the premises; if found indulging in any "hanky panky" you shall be asked to leave the party. ` A special REQUEST: During and after the party please DO NOT gather outside the venue. The management has requested us to ensure that, in the middle of the night, the peace of the neighbourhood is not disturbed. - A few dos: ` Have a smashing time. ` Carry your Alcoholic Drinks Permit. ` You have to be above the age of 21 to attend this event. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Right of admission reserved. ---------------------------------------------------------- __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
