Hey there NYC citizens...


I'm DJ'ing a new wave/post-punk/etc. night on Monday June 17. The place: Route 85A in the East Village. 85A Avenue A, between 5th & 6th (Underneath Kim's Video). I should be starting around 9PM. If anyone can make it, that would be great! I need to get people in there so I can turn it into a weekly event. Tell your friends (and bring 'em with ya!) I keep the music mix upbeat and rockin'. Typical artists: New Order, The Fixx, Simple Minds, Cure, Depeche, Kraftwerk, Wire, etc. plus lots of rarities.

Hope to see you there! (And yes, I'll even try to answer any "Where Can I Find This Song" questions, just like I do in the forums here!!!)

Sounds like lots of fun, Surly. Have someone take pictures (since you'll be busy) so we can see how things went!!! :)

I had no idea that you would DJ there, SurlyOne. My boyfriend wants to go, so I might actually show up too. He wants you to play some freestyle. ;) :)

Ah, but there's the rub...this is a new wave night, not a 80s night, so I can't really play any freestyle. But synth pop, goth, post-punk, ska, new wave...bring it on! Tell your friends...I need to make this night huge!

Interesting. Another NYC new wave DJ. And I thought we were saturated before!

Monday nights are *very* difficult to get any sort of crowd, but hopefully the venue has a good door policy/bar minimum.

I'll try to stop by. I'm always open to hear a different DJ spin their new wave collection. Next week is a busy one, though - - lots of places to go.

Anyway, good luck. Let us know how it goes.

I'm doing it again this Monday, July 1. It may just turn into a weekly thing, but at this point it's too soon to tell.
