:REPOST: Update for anyone following the shift of live shows & events to the virtual platform: It goes without saying that over the last few months everyone has had to make huge pivots, not only in how they go about their day to day lives but also how they operate their businesses.... As far as events & shows go, the virtual platform was the route to take. But the implications and implementation of how and where it would all work meant a lot of time, effort, energy & equipment to put it all together. Not to mention finding creative ways to keep any staff, crew or anyone in attendance (for when there could be an audience) distanced & safe. The owners of Onyx stepped up and teamed up with Sound Events Inc. to create just such a space and make it all happen. Now Onyx has the ability to host shows and events of all kinds while adhering to all current safety protocol. Now, amidst these shifts, and for a myriad of reasons that I won't get into here, FB also decided to change how content is streamed on their platform. Long-story-short they've made it completely impossible for any independent to stream any content on their platform as of Oct 1st. Case in point: Over the last few months much of the content posted to the GAIN Media and Onyx Nightclub Guelph FB pages has been censored, muted or does not even appear in followers newsfeed thereby resulting in lower page visits, views and overall engagement. But it's all about the pivot! See, FB thinks that we're here to chase their numbers and get page hits and views. Sure, those are all great, but here's the thing, that's not what we're here for. We're here to engage with our community and talk to those who are working behind the scenes helping those in need. We're here to have open, intelligent conversations with those who are working hard at their craft and are setting themselves apart. We're here to showcase local bands, musicians and artists in a time when the arts need to continue to shine through. We're here to back the community that we're a part of and create new platforms and opportunities in these uncertain times. It's because of these reasons and more that going forward we will not be relying on FB for streaming, nor will we be concerning ourselves with their numbers. If you'd like to follow along on this journey and catch all the shows, bands, chats and more hit up the Onyx website - www.onyxnightclubguelph.com, or their Twitch or Vimeo pages!
