I’m sick of the night scene in Taipei. I can’t stand going to these clubs here and listening to their shitty hip-hop or whatever other stuff they have on.
So, a few months ago I decided to stop complaining and do something about it. We organised a (mostly) indie guitar music night (also some motown, soul, funk, britpop) at the Source bar. It went down well with those who went but that was only about 50 people and most were my mates. The soul and motown went down really well and it was a great night but just wish we could get more people down to enjoy it.
We are thinking about trying again. So what i want to ask is…
What kind of music would you like to hear? Last time we played very indie stuff with a few classic songs, wondering if we need to make it more mainstream? Maybe some cheesy stuff? Maybe some more 70’s/80’s classics?
Is the Source bar a good venue? We choose there last time because Webster is a friend and they will do a $500 all you can drink deal.
Would anyone like to get involved? I’m open to letting other people come and do some DJing as long as the music fits in somewhere. I don’t really want to DJ, just want somewhere good to get drunk and try to dance like Bez.
I’d appreciate any suggestions.
