day 09 - a song that you can dance to

i really love a song i can dance to, and i really love to dance. back in my early-mid 20s, i used to frequent dark sparkle quite a bit. in fact just two days ago, i was overcome with overwhelming nostalgia (or something) and was looking at all the photos of my friends and i on the website (of which there are ( Read more... )

Also use to love going out to goth clubs dancing. The Continental in Buffalo, NY and Sanctuary Vampire Sex Bar in Toronto. Both are now closed.

Where are you in the photos?

You're pretty!

Yeah, Sanctuary, typical goth club name. When I moved South, I think the Goth bar in Atlanta was The Masquerade. There was also the Savage Garden in Toronto as well, I think it is still there and still goth (maybe?)

In Buffalo, the closets you can get to Goth night are Batcave/Retro nights at Club Diablo and Transmission "dance Parties" where new/indie stuff, EBM, etc. along with some old "standards" (Cure, New Order.)

thanks, i picked flattering ones ;)

yeah it's funny how most goth clubs have one of a few different names involved, ha. they seem to be disappearing.

here in the bay area, the longest-standing goth club is death guild, but they play too much newer ooontz-ooontz stuff for my liking. though my friend who used to DJ @ dark sparkle now apparently plays old goth and deathrock in the upstairs room there, so i may have to check it out. lately a rash of new wavey-coldwave clubs are coming out of the woodwork, which i like. dark sparkle was the best though, because they played a mix of everything good- old goth, old industrial, a bit of punk, glam, new wave, britpop and miscellaneous stuff like prince. i think there's a goth club in LA called sanctuary maybe? i can't remember. i haven't been to many out of state that i can recall. i went to an 80s club in new orleans that had a goth room, but they werent playing danceable stuff there.
