Tonight; New Order vs Depeche Mode Dance Party

Transmission Dance Party is back with a pre-Thanksgiving week warmup New Order vs Depeche Mode Dance Party tonight at the Mohawk. Dance to the hottest 80’s UK dance jams as Bill Page and Jason Draper pit Manchester legends New Order against venerable Essex heroes Depeche Mode in a battle for faux supremacy… with the winners being you party kids of all ages downtown to get down. The party starts at 10:00pm, goes to 3am, and cover is $5.

Tonight: Bold Folly

Broncho might have stiffed local fans tonight but a night of solid local music still awaits later at the Mohawk featuring psych rockers Bold Folly, dreambeaches, and Mr. Boneless. Bold Folly’s been cultivating an alluring sound that’s part Gene Pitney on acid, part unhinged rockabilly, and part bluesy space rock for a year or so, releasing the EP Queen City Tuesday in March. dreambeaches approach their satisfying take on psychedelic pop in a way that recalls fun Peter Gabriel from the mid 80’s, the Beach Boys, and Vampire Weekend, while Mr. Boneless brings a distinctly Flaming Lips vibe to their vaguely country rock sound. Taken together there’s a possibility your brains might be running out your noses by the end of the night… in a good way. Show begins at 8pm, and cover is $5.
