We at IDMW.Com HQ
have created this site in order to contribute to the existence of some
alternative, facing what we see as day after day threats against liberty.
As a matter of fact, we think it’s
nothing but our duty to widspread the following petition that has been forwarded
to us, facing New York City’s current nightlife situation…
“Let's abolish the cabaret
license immediately. It's our first amendment Right ! Dancing is a freedom of
expression ! And let's not allow any other
regulations that will hinder
our right to do so. This outdated law has contributed to the current climate of
cultural repression. When patrons are told to stop dancing even when a live
band is playing, there's a serious problem with this picture. Madison Square
Garden doesn't have a
cabaret license. Why is
dancing not hindered there? Get the facts !!!

“Also, let's abolish
the anti-club legislation that attacks our industry unfairly. We must overturn
the Rave Act and stop the additional legislation currently being proposed that
would make the DJ, band,
bartender, door person and anyone else working at a venue
responsible when a patron makes a personal decision to use drugs. Get the facts
! Cut through the B.S., they're feeding everyone through mainstream media by
villifying our industry.
Sign the pettition and/or
download it, make copies and pass it around.“
