SHAKIN' ALL OVER UNDER SIDEWAYS DOWN! New York Night Train's weekly rough and ready maximum rock'n'soul get-down featuring the action-packed sets of North America's most popular soul party DJ, MR. JONATHAN TOUBIN (http://newyorknighttrain.com/soulclap/jtbio.html) - where he turns only the most exquisite R&B, garage, girl groups,rockabilly, British invasion, soul, doo wop, etc exclusively on HUGE-SOUNDING ORIGINAL 45RPM VINYL RECORDS through Home Sweet Home's state-of-the-art sound system for your dancing pleasure!

MR. T had so much fun reuniting with his old pal and DJ partner Big Chief JAMES SCLAVUNOS... (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Sclavunos) at Tardy Gras that he's invited him back as his guest tonight! Though everybody recognizes Jim as the drummer for Grinderman and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, and did time beating skins for Sonic Youth, Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, Tav Falco and the Panther Burns, The Cramps, Alex Chilton, Eight-Eyed Spy, and many more, he's also known as the mysteriously tall DJ Goofy.

$3 cover - but FREE ADMISSION BEFORE 11 (and after 3AM)!

Speaking of that, starting this week, METROPOLIS VINTAGE HAPPY HOUR (http://metropolisvintage.wordpress.com/) is back from 8-11pm with CHARLY HIMMEL! Charly is a rock and roll musician, academic, and local personality who used to work at Crypt Records before Metropolis. She will be attempting to ignore the bevy of male admirers trying to get her attention on the dance-floor so she can concentrate on slinging her mean collection wild rock and soul 45s to get you down early girlie...

"Let Jonathan Toubin's vinyl collection lull you into a sweat-bathed soul stupor in a setting not unlike your grandpa's basement--complete with taxidermy and concrete floor." - Eva Medoff, "Time Out" (New York's 5 "Best Indie Dance Parties", Jan 11, 2011)

"Jonathan Toubin is the only person we can call a "professional DJ" without involuntarily making a jack-off motion with our hand... His parties are like what Ancient Stonehenge was like if it was, as archaeologists theorize, filled with people dressed many times better than you completely losing their shit." - Mike de Leon (Vice)

"New York Night Train's Jonathan Toubin throws the raddest underground rock parties in New York" - Alexander Thompson (Paper Magazine)

"A shimmy-worthy mix of maximum rock'n'soul" (New York Post)
