"All these People who don't know how to dance to good music are just posers"-Edinburgh Castle bar patron. Another action packed fun filled night and the 2nd time Clem Burke drummer of Blondie has come out to chill. Not sure if Clem comes out for the tunes or if it's the fish & chips that he fancy's. I like to think it's the tunes.

All Systems Go (9-23-10)
Every Thursday at the Edinburgh Castle pub I do my best to pay tribute to the new wave sound I love. On this particular Thursday I leaned more to the alternative side of things and started the night off with the mellow post punk number Night Shift by the Names and mixed in Wire's - the Finest Drops....It was a great start to an awesome night.

This Aint No Disco!
This is my fourth time around conducting the Banned From the Pub bar night at the Attic. Back story is the Attic Bar was faced with a lawsuit from a neighbor in July who complained about the music being too loud.
My original monthly got canceled until further notice. The lawsuit continued.....
Then out of the blue I got a email stating I-pods/Computers or digital players were fine. I'm guessing it has to do with the sneakiness of entering the bar with said devices as oppose to being seen with crates of records. Thus neighbors thinking there is no DJ.
I personally don't call it DJing but Selecting and pressing buttons. So I Selector Squid will be pressing buttons once again at the Attic Wednesday, Sept 29th at 10pm. This night in the past has had some awesome crowds. People just chillin with friends, having a pint and listening to good music.
Expect to hear the likes of:
the Horrors.the Cure.Interpol.Editors.Bowie.Blondie.Devo.the Faint. the Smiths. Magazine. New York Dolls. White Lies. the Nerves.Joy Division.Bloc Party.The Rakes. Good Shoes. the Rifles. Futureheads and so much more.....
Good tunes.Cheap Drank come on out and Join me for a pint!
