Would Anyone go to a Different 80's Night on Thursdays?

[wilhelm k]

Inquiring minds would like to know...

Would anyone out there like to go to a different 80's night on Thursdays?

A night where you hear:

Cure songs other than "just like heaven"

Depeche songs other than "enjoy the silence" & "personal pan pizza"

The Pixies AFTER 10:30

only 1 or 2 madonna,michael jackson,prince,etc songs a night

DK or the misfits

faith no more,priest,or some other metal

tears for fears songs other than "shout"

???

We are debating starting a new wave/80's night that leans towards the alternative side of things.

What do you guys think?

I like the sound of this.

[Troy Spiral (13)]

Sound interesting.

You can always find support for a "alternative to the normal alternative" but the problem is keeping it running long enough to make a go of it and gather a following. Its a noble effort, just a difficult one. Many have come and gone over the years. I know it can be done, it just seems to take some extreme Lazer-Beam like intensity and focus from the orginizational side to have it stick around.

I would definately be interested in that. I love the 80s.

[phee]

I would love it... if only I could find a way to go to clubs again.... that would be fun.

agreed.

it takes time,persistence,and tons of promotion.

Good idea! I'd be down for it

[the eternal]

OK, I'll do it.

But I need you to open with this track

And then when it's the bewitching hour and everyone needs to leave, don't scare them away with bad 90s rap-metal

(although, come to think of it, that may not be a bad idea)

gently show them out the door with my cousin Earl

[hunhee]

Pixies :

[SkittlePuke]

Considering the convo we had had at Deadline Wil I think you already know my answer.

I'm sold. When does it start? :D

[Joey Deadcat]

indeed i shall

Alright!

[TheOsakaKoneko]

I'd definitely give it a go. Truth be told I freakin love standard Thursday 80s night...lots of bad music but fun old beloved bad music so it's like...good memories...but this would be more inherently fun. You already know how much I love this music, so of course I'd go. I'd probably still miss the one week a month or whatever it is when the "other 80s place" has their floor show, because those are sweet as all hell, but in general this would be very cool.

[the eternal]

Ok, so when are starting this?
