Now it strikes me that this would appeal more to the late 20 somethings and
over. Question is, is there a need for a night like this? Would you go?
Don't get too excited yet...just doing a bit of research to see if it's
feasible :)

See
http://www.penguinsclub.co.uk
follow the Music link for playlists and that pretty much sums up the
night.

I deliberatly designed the night to appeal to a slightly older crowd
but I get a lot of young people coming and in general dancing more
than the older crowd.
See ya

Yes

No. Sorry, haven't been to a gig for years. First it was the wife, now
it's the baby. Hazards of being, er, late 20 something.

Yup, your playlists are the closest I've seen to what I intend Chris...

I don't own any, but I do remember them... Sure I can try and get hold of
some for the occasion!

I assume I'll see you Saturday at Guildford so I'll get teh gory
details from you then.
Yes and yes, I've never got over seventies nights being full of Abba and
similar shite.
cheers,
That's the way it will start certainly. I may well slip in newer stuff if I
feel it fits.

Yup...see you there. Also off to the Army warm up gig in Northampton. You?

Sounds like a night at the Garage, Highbury. And there's certainly a lot of
hot young bodies shaking to those beats; a surprisingly young crowd indeed.

There's Silver Rocket, too - first Friday of every month, Upstairs @ The
Garage. Bands from 8:30-11, then DJs playing stuff like Sonic Youth,
MBV, Pixies, Bikini Kill, Les Savy Fav, etc after that.
