Surfer Blood on stage

Foals controlled the rest of the night

That's all folks!

In my opinion, these are barely worth making posts about, much less entirely new threads. Hope this helps!

I enjoy them.  Will look up stuff I am not aware of.

To each their own, I guess.

+1 I like these posts. I forgot about that awesome Can song so I just youtubed it!

And you need entirely new threads to enjoy them. Okay, got it.

Maybe they could be posted the same way ShowlistDC does it…..one thread that gets constantly updated?  Would that be a fair compromise?

Yeah this seems like a huge non-issue to me.  I don't get anything out of these threads, but am fully capable of ignoring them.  Don't like 'em?  Leave 'em alone!  It's not like they're a waste of pixels or anything.

leave some crying for the babies

OH NO YOU DI'INT
CHAZ IN THE HAYOUSE HE DONT TAKE NO GUFF CUZ HE SO TUFF

I think they should be relegated to one thread if someone actually cares about them.  Maybe the thread could be in shows this week or something.  And if you are going to include this set list you could tell us what they are about.  Is this Foals and Surfer Blood members at the 930 club being guest dj's?  I have no idea.

The music Foals picked before they went on was pretty awful (at least the fifteen minutes I heard).

So this is what bands want to be played during the time between sets?  They aren't actually dj'ing?  Who would even care?  If you want to know the song there are apps for you phone that can tell you.

last i heard, club management "strongly encourages" DJs to post their setlist on the forum.

a'front: some bands take control of the music before they go on, so what you're listening to is whatever they want (they usually provide a mix CD).  otherwise, the 930 club has a DJ (like ravedubin) play toons… and they posts what they played here on the forum.

Did club management strongly encourage DJs to create entirely new threads for every show they DJ? If so, perhaps Djs should create new threads for each song they play so we can be sure not to miss a single hit!

Well if the club is encouraging him to post his songs he plays on here I shouldn't be busting his chops.  But it is strange to me that they post what songs a dj plays and not what songs the actual band played.  Which would be more interesting to me.  But like I said there are already sites for that.  But if someone lead off the set list the band played on stage it might lead to interesting follow-up.  But whatver I am done bitching about this.

Just for Relaxer I will do as he requested next time.  Ideally I'd tweet real time, but don't have enough time between songs to do so.

you're getting really bitchy in your dotage.

Personally, I'm happy with things the way they are. If something is done, I'd think it would be best to create an entirely new category solely for DJ setlists but then use separate threads for each list. Only allow the DJs to start new threads in that category. Don't know if that is possible though.

It's the club's forum so I don't really care at all how it's handled. Not that anal retentive about it all.

On a somewhat related note, the Yo La Tengo mix the last time they played the club was the best band programmed DJ setlist I have heard at 930.

It seems like if you were going to see a band play, you'd already know the names of their songs. Whereas you wouldn't necessarily know the stuff the dj played.
