...Where are some good places in central London that would play decent disco sets like this? I'm over there "supporting" a couple of girls doing the Moonwalk in 11 days' time (fifteen thousand women wearing strange and colourful bras walking a marathon through central London all night in aid of breast cancer) and I might take some time out during the night to visit somewhere decent. They won't miss me.
That's a tricky one, Billy, as you'll bump into disco almost anywhere now. Unless it's a specific night, i.e. techno, d&b or whatever, you're bound to hear some token '70s at the very least. I don't personally know of any dedicated disco nights that aren't cheese-fests, like Starsky & Hutch, School Dinners, etc.
I saw Daniel Wang play on Thursday gone at Plastic People and I really enjoyed it. He played a lot of interesting records I didn't know and it was 100% disco - a few new tunes and lots of obscure (to me) oldies. I'll definitely check him next time. Even 'Cruising The Streets' rocked the spot!
Pity you won't be around in a month's time, because I'm playing in trendy Hoxton. Good luck with your gig, anyway.
I was actually in your neck of the woods on Friday - went to Motel Funk, at The Apartment in the town centre. Your Swindon women very friendly, yah! :lol:
