People's Republic Of Disco Presents JUKE JOINT: March 15th, Streatham
The People's Republic Of Disco Presents
Comrades...
as part of our plan to spread the message of Discocracy far and wide, we're proud to announce the launch of JUKE JOINT.
This weekly night will take place at the newly revamped and really rather lovely White Lion in Streatham, part of the Jamm / Red Star / Dirty South chain. The bar is here and is on the righthand side of Streatham High Street heading from Brixton.. It's roughly opposite the cop shop and the other big Streatham pubs (a Wetherspoons, I think). It's a great bar that's been given an atmospheric (but non-wanky) makeover
Based on the version of People's Republic Of Disco we took to the festivals over the last couple of years, rather than people bringing their own tunes* we'll provide a 'menu' of 2000+ tunes for you to choose from, which we'll then play.
Based on tunes that have gone down well at PROD over the years, the selection will be as eclectic as ever, but won't necessarily need to be as banging as PROD is. We'll keep the tunes fresh by updating them all the time as well...
It's entirely FREE and will run from 8pm till closing time (which I suspect is flexible
) and will happen every Wednesday. Comrade Ouchmonkee and I will there to play the tunes and accept your gracious offer of drinks (reasonably priced, by the way!).
This is a big step for us, a weekly night, and we really hope we'll see you down there, especially for the first one which we want to go with a bang. This isn't any kind of replacement for the full PROD - could you ever replace PROD? - think of it as a kind of weekly ideological reprogramming.
God knows, Streatham needs fun stuff to do - especially mid-week - so hopefully this will be a hit.
Watch this space for further details, but stick it in your diary
(* there's no reason why you shouldn't bring the odd tune if you really want to hear it, mind - we're flexible types)
