Subculture is undeniably shit.

Saterday was amazingly bad.

It was 'Ladies Night' so all girls dressed as slags got a free shot (pretty sure that that was for the guys...) and they had the UK Dream Men on stage... 2 things very wrong with this.

1. Guys performing choreographed strip routines is not, and never will be, sexy. It's very homo-erotic, and I'm sure the subs girls loved it, but after 3 minutes the comedy value wore off, for a lot of the girls as well as the boys. Yet those pricks were up there three times in the night, each time for about 20 minutes. Time wasted that could have been spent with decent music; bringing me to

2. Woefully poor playlist. Barely anything good all night, just the god awful subculture 'classics' if you've been more than once, you'll know what these are... there's the metal tunes that everyone's bored of (Disturbed, Slipknot, 36 Crazyfists...) there's the poppy shite that everyone's bored of (Feeder, Foo Fighters...) there's the emo shit no-one even liked in the first place (Panic at the Disco, My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy) and then... there's the hip-hop/dance section which is new. BUT EVERYONE HATES IT... EVERYONE HATE HATE EVERYONE HATE HATE EVERYONE HATES IT. I think I made my point there.

It's funny, because the week before, which was the New Found Glory after party, was awesome. A good hour of punk and ska right at the start, including actual real BRITISH PUNK BANDS :O then a good mix of metal, hardcore, emo even a touch of DnB (even if it was pendulum again) I barely went to the bar that night!

It just goes to show that the guys behind subs do know how to put on a good mix. They just don't want to...


Which reminds me of another thing.

LEARN TO MIX YOU TWATS! A real DJ actually mixes songs together, you know, like playing both at once in time with each other in a way that sounds good. NOT pressing play on CD deck two when the song on CD deck one is over. And stop playing boring songs all the way through. Sure it's nice to hear some metallica, or Beastie Boys but we don't like it so much that we need to hear the middle break and last chorus. Just skip it! Please! Just play the next song and keep the attention!

I've not seen many good DJs in my life, but one was the legend that support Enter Shikari on their last tour. Mixing DnB with alt tunes and real classics, just a pity it was a shitty atmosphere for dancing...
