Bloc Party Tonight @ Misshapes

I was cautiously interested in tonight’s NYC/Misshapes invasion of the Last Supper Club in this week’s Up & Comings:

MISSHAPES (Last Supper Club) Misshapes is a weekly “hipster” dance party thrown in NYC by a trio of DJs known as the Misshapes: Greg K, Leigh Lezark, and Geordon Nicol. The night has become famous for its celebrity DJs (ranging from Madonna and Kelly Osbourne to Les Savy Fav and the Rapture) and also for a reported ban on beatmatching exacted on guest DJ Princess Superstar. The indie dance night depends more on taste and aesthetic than it does on a particular genre or technical skill, and it will be interesting to see how that dynamic translates to Seattle, with the Misshapes themselves as the celebrity DJs. Will NYC’s hipster culture mix with Seattle’s bridge-and-tunnel crowd? Does anyone in Pioneer Square really care about the Misshapes? Will Madonna be there? (She won’t.) ERIC GRANDY

I might have been a little less equivocal in my excitement had I known then that tonight’s special guest are Bloc Party. They’ll be DJing along with Seattle’s LA Kendall and Colby B. It should be a fun, weird night in Pioneer Square.
