Hey guys,

Just wondering if you guys think there is any need for a Dance night in Aberdeen, with mainstream artists like Mylo, Tim Deluxe, Steve Lawler, Royksopp, never-ending list...

Would you guys be interested in coming to a night like that once a month. And who would you like to see there?

Thoughts please.

There's definitely a market for it.

Are you meaning a club night or a regular gig-night, just to clarify.

Whats the difference?

[Lester Burnham]

Gig night = acts actually performing
Club Night = usually just a DJ.

There's def a market for it. If you plodded though some Telepopmusic and Air I'd happily come down.

Okay...It will be a club night, i.e say I got Mylo, it would be a DJ set rather than a live act.

Who would you guys like to see.

It's a good idea if you can get the right venue for it - at the minute, i'm struggling to think of where could actually hold such a thing while appearing credible..

Erm... Tunnels... Snafu.... both easily.

Tunnels - no. it's not a club venue, it's too sterile and doesn't lend itself well to the idea of a "club" night, regardless of what they'd like to pretend. Maybe once they get the other room open it might, but just now? naaah...

Snafu maybe, but it's a bit far from the action - though maybe the opening of Lo Down will change things in that respect.

Dance nights by nature really should be in a decent, large venue - and with the names the thread starter is talking about, they'd easily pull in a few hundred with the right amount of effort.

Snafu? Bit far from the action? Have you ever been there, Cloud? I literally 100% disagree in regards to that sentence.

The tunnels can be a bit too open at times, but when I've been there and it's been packed out it's been a good laugh in regards to the club nights.
