sometimes when they had rain showers during the show up at Negril Escape it kinda put a dent in the turn out........
thus having it under a roof kinda guaranteed not having the same problem.........
same reason SeaStar Inn is putting a roof over the entire downstairs....
no reason for people not to turn out for their show and bashment......

YES you willOriginally Posted by poolguywindsor
yah, i'll second irieworld. imho it's kind of a shame.
the Jungle is a nice club, i enjoy it once in a while. but it's still just a nightclub. there's nothing 'special' about a show at a club. the vibe can't compare to outadoors on the cliffs, music out in the night air, under the stars, surf crashing below, fresh ocean breeze above. it's mystical.
reggae on the cliffs is kinda legendary. and when the N.E. shows began, i was THRILLED that they were tryna bring it back, after it had been so long gone from up there.
pmpphhh
definitely diminishes the appeal
there is nothing like being under the stars and getting the occasional splash from a larger wave while watching the show
bummed out .. loved the concerts by the water not to mention steps from my home...
~~~love and light~~~
I like the upstairs outdoor space at the Jungle, and the ability to lave that space and be in another. It's also more convenient for beach people. Maybe guests of NE can get a show/stay package...?
still bumming. Sorry Carey--big ups to you for all the great shows you are bringing around, but we need a show cliffside, outside, like Samsara and Kaisers used to do--and more recently Negril Escape. So much more special.
"bummed out .. loved the concerts by the water not to mention steps from my home... "
Yup I hear ya on that, while not steps from my yard close enough...
I'd love to see Central Park opened and used for live music again...
That all said, I'm not seeing ticket prices? Anyone have any idea?
That is a good point you bring up there rastagirl.No-one has seen the ticket price.
Do you think it will be higher or lower than NE?
It will not have the same ambience or personal touch but Jungle does have all the facilities required.
BUT they will have to get some good acts on otherwise people would just stick with alfreds /roots bamboo and bourbon beach where you can get to see some good shows open air in the sand by the waves.
I think a club can compete with that especially the Jungle as it is a good set up but it will be interesting to see how it works out.
high cost/low cost
big well known act/small upcoming
length of performance
time
I thought quite a lot of the more mature crowd went to NE from what I saw in the photographs and it will be interesting to see how the promoters attract that crowd into a nightclub or if they are looking for a new younger clientel
I have not seen any sort of promotion so far but maybe there is some on the ground or some planned
Although a younger crowd will probably be more likely to see younger fresher acts that they know.
I guess we all just have to sit tight and wait.
Hopefully some more shows will be released this week and i still have lots of hope that there will be the WOW and BOOM factor for my dates.This is the moment some of us have waited all year for.I am excited to see the line up but get here already!
"That is a good point you bring up there rastagirl.No-one has seen the ticket price.

Thank you TicToc, I was starting to think I was going crazy, but I cannot find a ticket price anywhere.
My guess is that they MAY be lower than NE - I know when Shaggy played at NE it was $50US and when he played at the Jungle it was 1500JMD. I guess we'll have to wait and see...
