Virtual Normality



With the madness of the Yuletide season over, and your inventory bulging with a plethora of santa hats, antlers and christmas crackers its good to slide back into the virtual normailty of life on the grid. For me and those chilling from snow exposure like me that means a scooter tothe AAi and Kim and Eden's first set of 2010. As we slowly tp'd into the club the stream started and off we charged into another night of mod, silly conversation and laughs. Ahhh I'm virtually home again.

Kim opened with a glorious set full of tip top rankin ska. And some delightfully mellow sweet soul from the likes of David Ruffin and Bettye Swann. The tunes soared out of the stream, a quintensial mod set, full of drive, verve and chilled enough to put in a vodka and bugger the ice. Once again mixing my metaphors Kim was on fire and her set raised the spirits of all who were there, Sean even needed a tissue for his pole,,obviously a Scottish caber tossing theme ,except with a pole instead of a caber..who the feck knows. With Kim setting such high standards its lucky that Eden has honed her mod set sharp enough to slice through the winter dreariness and take us on further into mod music bliss. Firing off a salvo of stomping beat tunes Eden struck out with her usual ecletic mix of mod with, for my tuppence worth, Oscar Perry: Face Reality the stand out track of a blinding set. Ahh its good to be back to normal...virtually. Still cant snap those damn dancers boy do they move fast!

Hey and did you hear Eden and kim have a new shop, thats correct a new one...a bit like the old one only its new. I wonder if we'll get an exclusive on the opening of this new shop, afterall its not their old one its an entirely new one, thats quite ,,,well, new!
