When I initially started Genesis, I said I would run as long as I able unless haters started trying to get it shut down... I was informed today that the police have been receiving phone calls about Genesis and would start raiding the club until we stopped running...
The owners of the building don't want issues with the police and I completely understand...
So just as I did when we got word about Insomnia, it is with a heavy heart that I have to say that Genesis will no longer be running every Saturday night...
Here is just a little insight and a little clarification to set some of the record straight... When we ran Insomnia, I tried to keep it as clean as I could so we never had issues with the police. I worked there from 2010 until Insomnia closed in 2014 and for the years before I worked there, we had minimal issues. The 4 years I was there I can actually only remember a couple of issues but nothing major.
When Insomnia closed, the head of vice came into the club on Friday and said we needed to stop running. We told him people had already been paid and he let us run one more time. When another afterhours continued running for 4 more weeks we called the head of vice and told him that if they stayed open we were going to start running again. He said don't, just give it time. 2 weeks later that "other" afterhours got raided, not just by dpd but federal law enforcement too... The head of vice did all that for Insomnia because the police never had any issues from us...But as in life one person can ruin it for everyone else or one afterhours... Dallas doesn't want to take a chance on having another "other" afterhours...
If you've made it this far, I want to thank everyone that helped so much to make Genesis happen for the short time it did... I also want to thank everyone that came out and the ones that were coming out this weekend...
