Greetings Dulwichites


I'm planning an occasional club night for boys and girls who are on the right side of 40 (that's upwards of). We're aiming to play you back through your adolescence and sparkly youth with a soundtrack of synth pop (OMD, Human League, Depeche Mode), post-punk (Gang of Four, Echo and the Bunnymen, the Pop Group), ska (Specials etc) dub (Mark Stewart, On-U Sound) rave (the Prodigy etc) and some glittering New Pop (Simple Minds, ABC, Madonna) but always on the right side of cheesy and with no irony intended whatsoever. I'll be working in related visuals and various flavours of dry ice.The preferred venue would be the crypt under St. Giles Church (where you can find the jazz club on a Friday).


What I would love to find out from you Dulwichites is if you would go to such a club night? Considering childcare, the general ravages of time etc, if it ran 8pm to 1am with a bar and food and had more of a music club atmosphere than a mega-club atmosphere? Conversely, I'd be interested to know why you wouldn't go.


Looking forward to your responses.


Paul

Ah, you're probably right. I was just there to check it out as a potential gig venue, but didn't realise there was more hidden away.

I'm speaking in terms of the forum. I'm sure he hasn't shuffled off yet.

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
