San Francisco has a diverse disco scene that often crosses over but not often enough! The goal of Go BANG! is to bring the crews and their devoted dancers together in a mixed, diverse, exciting environment, with a nod to the diversity and freedom of the 70's/80's New York/Chicago/San Francisco disco nightlife
Disco freaks, art school boys & girls, drag queens & kings, boogie-heads, fierce dancers, flashy dressers, sexy girls, hot boys, DJs, dancers, photographers, artists, fashionistas; gay/straight/bi/tri/whateva! Bring your flashiest, trashiest, classiest, sexiest, craziest style; but bring an open mind, big smile, and shoes that will allow you to dance from opening to last call! We will start with fire and end with fire!
Taking inspiration from the classic Dinosaur L. song
"I wanna see all my friends at once
I'll do anything to get a chance to
Goooo BANG!"
Getting to know the November Guest DJs:
**Ken Vulsion (HONEYSOUNDSYSTEM): As a founding member of San Francisco's premiere Heavy Disco Dance collective - HONEYSOUNDSYSTEM - Ken & the rest of the crew (currently Peeplay, Jason Kendig, Robot Hustle, Josh Cheon & Derek Bobus) have recently celebrated the 2nd Anniversary of their amazing, always-exciting FREE Sunday Paradise Loft Party. They are also the "sister" party of London's Horsemeat Disco. Recently, they were awarded 2009's Goldie Award for Best Local Music by the San Francisco Bay Guardian! Ken recently was asked to do a mix for Tim Sweeny's oh-so-hot Beats In Space radio show (http://www.beatsinspace.net/playlists/470) and has been pivotal in unearthing previously-unreleased Patrick Cowley tapes - with the "Catholic" EP being the first in Stefan Goldmann and Finn Johannsen's Prototypes series on Macro Label.
Ken was one of the original members of Go BANG! at our very first party, always delivers heavy, bassy Disco beats, and he is NOT to be missed!
**Ash Williams (Discohorror) 9PM Cosmic Beardo LiftOff Set: Ash's DiscoHorror blog is frequented by DJs, tastemakers, and all others who enjoy spacey, cosmic, heady tunes! Ash not only presents tracks by other artists, but also puts out original, amazing mixes (http://www.discohorror.com/mix/Sunset%20Stands%20Still%20Mix%20II.mp3) and re-edits to quench the thirst of those that enjoy quality, spacey tunes.
**Every month, we begin Go BANG! at 9PM with an hour of Balearic/Cosmic LiftOff Music!
This is followed by our usual upfront, authentic Atomic Dancefloor Disco Action!**
Come early at 9, get in free, and enjoy heavy, heady beats that build towards dancefloor stompers!
