Alright finally our good friend Friday is here.
So forget about your 7-Up and chips! Here’s the perfect little track to play while you pick out your outfit… get ready because we’re going dancing! Weeeeeeeee!
Oh yeah, don’t forget… this is what we’re doing this weekend. It will be sooooooooo fun!
OMG Wow
Holy moly NO MORE STRANGERS HALLOWEEN was just unreal! Our secret Chinatown loft space (aka The Lions Den) was wall to wall by 11 and the sweaty singalong makeout dance jamboree was so crazy crazy crazy.
UPDATE: You’ve got to check out the pictures! PHOTOS FROM NMS HALLOWEEN HERE.
Along with the usual mess of mobile phones, jackets, and wallets you usually find, we also found a bag of bread, a glass bottle of milk, love letters, the weirdest wall stains you can imagine (in the weirdest places), and a bunch of spinach. Milk and spinach at a dance party!
A massive thank you to everyone who came out to dance and check out the amazing bands. Winnie Cooper and the NO MORE STRANGERS family love you!
Stevie Wonder – Love Light In Flight
Don’t forget NO MORE STRANGERS is back at SMILEY’S this coming Saturday with live guests Modern Creatures and Tight Solid!
Gastown Shuffle
Want 5 free drinks?
If you’re in Vancouver, do the Gastown Shuffle on June 10. And no, it’s not like the Stanky Leg. To take part, check the flyer for details.
You’ll need a badge for the complimentary drinks (1 beer or shot at each of the five participating venues) and Winnie Cooper has extras if you need some – just holler.
Here’s something to shuffle to… this is a classic, heavily sampled gem from 1975:
The Blackbyrds – Rock Creek Park
There was lots of vomit on the sidewalks down there on Saturday night. But I’m sure it’s all evaporated by now. Wooo Gastown!
Place Head Here
So yeah. Had a rough night to put it lightly. Here’s how it went:
1. Playing songs for dancing.
2. Power overloads.
3. Speakers go dead.
4. Me wanting to die.
5. Fixed, sound comes back.
6. Repeat 2 thru 5… twice more.

Lady Gaga Circa 2007
I gather this isn’t new, but I’ve never seen it.
Demicouture put this out there, and I couldn’t resist sharing it.
Pop success = a blonde wig?
Ha!
Be My Valentine
We are throwing a Valentines party in Vancouver, Saturday, February 14th.
Its going to be radder than super sours. Think high school dance but with sloppier make outs. We’re bringing our pals, Type To Talk who played at Blastramp with us as well as the one man show, Keytar Warrior from Victoria.
As well as having ridiculously cheap cover, the drink prices are pretty damn friendly… $3.25 Pints / $4 shots and Highballs / $11 pitchers.
Ticket available at door! Hit up the facebook event page for more info….
And now some funk & new wave I’ve had on repeat.
This one takes the cake, for our WC gay song of the day. So good. “…physical thrill, beautiful smile and wonderful muscles too”
The Flirts – So Many Men, So Little Time
These are from quite poss the best blog on the internet, ARAWA
Babaluga – My Paradise (extended)
“ttttttttttttthere are no losers in my paradise”
See you there.
I Like Robots Too, But I Need A Break
I’m convinced my poor posture now is the direct result of lugging vinyl around for years. And I was always that dude who carried way more than he really needed to. This here is one record I always had with me. It never failed.
Gwen McCrae – All This Love That I’m Giving
Download this next track and wait until about 3:16. The best part is that the duo who sampled it mislabeled their record sleeve!
Donna Summer – If It Hurts Just A Little
