The owners
of Joy Eslava in Madrid denied today a sales operation existed at
this moment of their famous club and reaffirmed the venue "is a strong and
forward-looking project".
Businessman
Pedro Trapote, nightclub owner, said JOY is currently "in its period of
greatest activity" with preparations of their 35th Anniversary and the launch of “Escenario Eslava” (Eslava Stage), a commitment
to live music with details being announced during the anniversary. The first
35 years of Joy Eslava are hot material from the history of our Madrid.
"Nightlife entrepreneurs are suffering a decade of linked problems, with the crisis, the
VAT increase, new administrative status, inheritance of misfortune Madrid Arena
and continuous inspections. This leaves the sector in an uncomfortable
position, and so many leads us to question the future. But it is not the case
with Joy."
Thus,
they have come out against reports in media that said Trapote planned to sell the distinguished club and in the future it would be a clothes store
or restaurant.
Joy Eslava, launched by entrepreneur Pedro Trapote in Madrid's central "Arenal" street, opened the evening of February 23, 1981, after
the overflowing euphoria of overcoming 23-F. Since then, political figures,
international celebrities, sports stars, and familiar faces of culture,
cinema, music, TV... Roger Moore, Pedro Almodóvar, Stevie Wonder and Julio Iglesias have danced at Joy Eslava.
"The first
35 years of Joy Eslava are hot material from the history of Madrid nightlifepassing through the magical sieve into its more playful dimension."
Se está convirtiendo en una tendencia en las redes sociales, la cantidad de personas mayores que bailan como si tuvieran 20 años
Bora Bora - Ibiza (2015)
Hace sólo dos semanas en
Holanda el mismo “Casa Opa” (Abuelo del House) captó la atención en Festival “Edit” en Haarlem. Sus bailes estaban por todo Facebook. Ha
estado apareciendo antes y después de asistir a otros festivales y fiestas de
baile con regularidad.
Otros personajes interesantes
de edad avanzada se han dado a conocer en otros lugares como Berlín, Detroit e IBIZA!!
Aquí hay un pequeño testimonio de estas
personas, están demostrando a los jóvenes que bailar y amar la música de baile
no tiene fecha de caducidad...
Por ejemplo, a Patricia Lay-Dorsey se le conoce como “Grandma
Techno” (La Techno Abuela) con sus 72 años, es una de las visitantes más
regulares del Festival “Movement” en Detroit.
Hicieron un mini-documental sobre ella, y porque a ella le encanta sobre
todo ir a festivales a bailar.
“La Abuela Bailando Techno”
Luego está la historia de Johan de Vries (Nacido en 1932) quien
se ha creado una reputación de clase como la "Casa Opa" en festivales
holandeses y en las discotecas cerca de Ámsterdam. Este video fue tomado en el
festival “Edit” hace unas semanas y se convirtió en un éxito cuando la gente
empezó a compartir los movimientos de baile idiosincrásicos de Johan. Recibió
clases de baile profesionales en su día, así se puede ver elementos de cada tipo
de baile de tus abuelos pisando fuerte con pies arrugadas.
“El Abuelo del House Music”
Habla Johan durante una fiesta en la playa en 2013…
Entrevista en Holandés
Uno un poco más joven que Johan, pero sin duda merece una
mención aquí es Jan Bakker, la leyenda viviente con casi 70 años que se ha
convertido en un nombre familiar en la noche de Ámsterdam.
Festival “Dockyard”
Luego está Komet Bernhard quién es una persona mayor muy
conocido en la escena de Berlín. En un festival había una cola de Berlineses que
querían darle la mano. Parece que se le ha ido cabeza debido a las drogas, pero
por lo que se oye baila asi cuando está completamente sobrio [aparte de los
chupitos de Jäger, como se puede ver en el vídeo a continuación].
El Famoso Abuelo de Berlin de Fiesta
Llegó a la fama protagonizando el video para el remix de
Adana Twins “Strange” por Acid Pauli y NU.
4 Large Terraces. Includes Hospitality & Leisure Licence [1,775 m2]
Yep! €50,000
a month [only £8242/week!] is how much it costs to rent the former nightclub
“Oh Madrid”, famouslyknown in its last years as “Buddha del Mar”.This legendary nightclub closed 5 January 2014,
when they had their last party after more than 20 years open.
The restaurant
is located 8.7 km north-west of Madrid; with a total area of 19,000 ft2
distributed on three floors, and is an ideal venue for catering and
entertainment operations.
The
property has four large terraces on the front, side and rear, which are its main
attractions, although it was originally built for residential use. It also has
a large outer space ideal for parking.
Since the
three Lozano brothers, responsible for the business were forced to close because
they were unable to meet the rent costs, many have expressed interest in this
venture.
The future of
this emblematic Madrid nightclub remains uncertain. It symbolised the most glamorous nightlife venue
in the capital where the Spanish national football team celebrated the 2010
World Cup victory, and was habitually frequented by Real Madrid players and many
other celebrities. https://twitter.com/madridnitelife http://www.madridnightlife.com/ #Madrid #Nightlife #Guide to Renting a #Nightclub
