Stock Exchange DC

yeah we do need a bigger venue.
It's either going to be both floors or just an all out bigger space.

Put the word out now though. More sneaker resellers now.

...and dont jinx me with snow.

 

send over a venue contract, your insurance forms and facility listing and we'll talk.
what's the capacity?

 

And I have a feeling you weren't there.
Free Smart water as the highlight... for some maybe it was.

All we can do is make it bigger and better.

But with all you guys in here TALKING and not actually bringing out kicks, DC metro area remains weaker as opposed to stronger.
I gave you guys a venue, tables, shelving and chairs.
it's up to you to bring it out.

 

eh... anyway.
My pics are my pics.
But I appreciate you being a fan.

Please remember:
My event isn't just about sneakers.
footwear is but one aspect.

Anyway... hate all you want, but I gave rockdeep carte blanche entrance to my event, after his, for free for him & any of his attending guests that would make it.
I support everyone's efforts to get it together.
And as crummy as you seem to be, it'd probably be cool to meet you and make you put your shoe game where your mouth is.

And I am pretty sure RockDeep didnt have 400+ paying participants at his event.
I saw that events photos. 30 people?

10 fatboys tryin to ball.
3 girls?

come on now... no disrespect. But we had 438 people PAY to get in.
come out to the next one.
It isn't JUST a "sneaker party".
Anyway, you can't say jack unless you were there. Really you cant say jack unless you are bringin something to sell or show.

there is a reason peter fahey won't come back to DC.
in 2003 no one was ready, I was there. were you?

Anyway... I'm all about making some party's and having some fun.
you can help us out, participate, etc. or try and go against a good event.
your choice.
we all gotta live here.

 

come on.
no one is yapping about money made.
Destination kicks is on some old BS. saying some cookout in nowheresville, VA had over 400 people at it, topping our attendance.
I gave our actual number of attendance. for the record.
Furthermore no one has anything to say about us extending our support and goodwill to everyone at the cookout.
just more BS NikeTalk.

secondly Stock Exchange IS about footwear. but not ONLY footwear.
I feel much can be achieved in the area, via the footwear aspect... but look at what destination kicks is saying.
He wasnt there, didnt go, and when prompted to put his shoe game on the display, no response.
just goin on and on about the RnR hotel being an old arcade or something?
Dizzy set up in the Arcade room. took the whole thing over.
I'm not sure if the whole building used to be an arcade or not.
It's 2 floors and only one single room is an arcade/game room.

Please also remember, my event is called STOCK exchange. not sneaker hangout, not sneaker party, or anything else only SNEAKERS.
And, if it wasn't for the OTHER aspects, the show would have not had as wide as an appeal or vendor participation.
Denim companies, media sponsors, apparel companies, artists, retailers, private foot wear sellers, custom foot wear designers, skateboard companies, and beverage sponsors all came through and gave the show a well rounded feel.

No one in here brought out anything, and YOU guys are supposed to be the areas leaders and experts on athletic and athletic heritage footwear.
You guys are this areas peoples that are supposedly holding ALL these shoes.
Yet, when this event comes out and YOU can actually make money and put that rep out there, and you don't show.
You are DC/MD/VA.
And you come on in here and state that, all day everyday.
then the one show which supports and promotes to you comes to town. no one on NT is doing anything there.

All I know is we had a show, it went down, and YOU either brought it out or didn't.

If you don't come out and you don't show items at the show, then you are just sayin that people from DC/MD/VA DONT GOT IT LIKE THAT.
This little bunch of people is the ONLY group of people steadily vibing like this.

You guys are holding DC/MD/VA back, we appealed to you, tried to find ways for everyone to be there for FREE even, and still didn't receive the support from this community.

So you tell us: what do we gotta do?

 

to display at our event is free.

to sell, you need to buy space.

and you guys are right, I am letting personal attacks on me affect this thread.
I am trying to juggle personal and business at the same time and it isnt working. so thanks for reality checking me on the personal.

back to business.

 

I was very, very happy with the turnout.
And yes, I look forward to seeing you at the next one.
