...We can all get excited about an awesome boat party without having to worry about the novelty song factor of it, right (motherfucker)?
Right.
So, the Stranger and Trouble Dicso is throwing a pre-pride boat party featuring Hercules & Love Affair member Kim Ann Foxman, dance/performance duo Dream Weavers, and Trouble Dicso DJs Ben Cook (Rong) and Terry Trouble.
Here's nice things we've said about Ms. Foxman:
Kim Ann Foxman has the unfortunate distinction of being the member of Hercules and Love Affair who's neither the Producer (Andy Butler), the Voice (Antony Hegarty), or the Tranny (Nomi Ruiz). But while Foxman might not be the highest-profile member of that band, she's still instrumental to their beguiling sound, lending her own cool and capable voice to such relatively slow-burning but essential tracks as the late-night disco comedown of "Athene" and the buoyant early-morning ballad "Iris." (Also, her hair is a work of art.) Interviews with Foxman indicate that her DJ crates contain classic house, disco, freestyle, "Precious Little Diamond" by Fox the Fox—pretty much exactly what you'd expect from a Hercules muse and easily up to the heroic labor of moving a Sunday-night dance floor.
Here's nice things we've said about Trouble Dicso:
Some people would have you believe Seattle is still a grungy, blue-collar, meat 'n' potatoes rock town—and sometimes I even believe it—but don't let the beards fool you. Seattle's long had a steady pumping dance pulse, and the good folks behind Trouble Dicso (Line Out contributor Terry Miller and Rong Records founder Ben Cook) have for the latter half of 2009 been tapping into it to bring some major international DJ talent to town—JD Twitch of Optimo, Eric Duncan of Still Going/Rub-n-Tug, and more. Like Emerald City Soul Club before them, Trouble Dicso is a night of top-notch dance music (in this case, primarily nu and classic disco) curated by devoted experts; unlike ECSC's nights, Trouble Dicso is for now woefully underattended—get in on this night while there's still ample room to cut a shag rug, and you'll have bragging rights when it inevitably blows up to uncomfortably crowded.
Now, doesn't that all sound nice? Tickets and more info HERE.
