Comments Fixed! | Escort DJs at 205 on March 13th

So after almost a year of inactivity due to spam, comments are finally back on Slap You in Public. Thanks to my buddy Mark at MT-Hacks and his awesome AjaxComments plugin, we are back in business. Comment away. Get snarky.

Escort were amazing on Friday at Southpaw. With an 18 piece band that included a full string and horn section, they ripped through a little less than an hour that had everyone bugging the fuck out (at least from where I was standing).

Their setlist included two disco covers that are personal favorites of mine: Belle Epoque's "Miss Broadway" and Giorgio's Gino's "Dancer."

We loved it so much that we got Dan and Eugene to do us another Escort DJ Set for People Don't Dance No More on Thursday March 13th at 205!

Full setlist:

Cutters and Nutters: Cut Copy Invades NYC

cut125.jpg (photo credit)

Who needs SXSW?

Seriously?

We aren't going.

Not that we don't love bands, BBQ, and sunshine; but Miami has house music, beach, and Cuban sandwiches...

I don't know about you, but it seems like there is plenty going on in NYC. For starters, we are doing another disco-fied PDDNM at 205 on Thursday with Escort and Liv Spencer. Friday night, it seems people think that Justice will show up at Misshapes, I mean Royale with Busy P. Finally, Saturday night begins the Cut Copy invasion!

I don't have a copy, but I did have a listen to the new album In Ghost Colors and I can tell you that is everything you are hoping for and more. Depth, multi-part song structures, weirdo guitars, and of course banging synths and soaring, epic vocals. I'm sure you've heard "So Haunted" so you have an idea what to expect. Its out April 8th but you can pre-order it now.

I cannot wait to see how the boys do it up live this Saturday at Studio B and on Monday at Mercury Lounge.

I just got werd of a happening afterparty for the Monday night show at The Randolph. Its with DJ sets by T&T and the Cutters themselves. Call out on Tuesday. RSVP here.

All of the flyers are below.

205mar18br9.jpg

From JMiller + JRenault:

The Norwegian invasion continues!

Our man BJORN TORSKE will be our guest tomorrow night and its gonna be a good one! Bjorn performed at SXSW last week and danced his ass off at our SXSW party on friday night.

Just a heads up to those of you confused as what the hell is going on at 205. Its going to be closed upstairs and you'll have to ENTER from the side door on the Stanton side next to the dumpsters. Why do you think they call it Dirty NY Disco? So get there early as space is limited. DOOR OPENs AT 11pm

205 Club
205 Chrystie @ Stanton
New York City
Downstairs 11pm to 4am
SIDE DOOR (Stanton)

We just got word that Saturday night will be an extra special free People Don't Dance No More disco special at the sonic temple Love with Robot Blair + Me, Jacques Renault, and another guest or two. It's free with RSVP so RSVP and spread the word. Keep an eye here for the details.

If you are in the LES tonight, make sure to swing by Pianos early, I'll be playing some weird records while people drink free beer.

Brooklyn Vegan kind of killed it this time with the lineup, I'm excited to see Bell...
