Music to write guestlists to

Friday, March 30, 2007

Translation of the conversation me, Erik and Simon had with the bouncer outside of Berns last night: (note: there were no pre-show sales for this, so we weren't trying to weasel into a sold-out show by any means).

Bouncer: Hey
Us: We would like to see the show tonight
Bouncer: Are you on a list?
Us: No
Bouncer: Oh, ok...um...
Us: ??
Bouncer: Oh but it's ok. You guys look like you fit in. Welcome.

We then entered the club without paying the enterance fee. Lucky us, but what the fuck. We fit some sort of profile, eventhough we were just 3 lanky guys in jeans and hoodies. Wonder if one of us would've had on the wrong jeans and hoodie? I hate this sort of club culture. It's common here in Stockholm. Certain people get into certain clubs and others don't depending on how you look and who you're with. On the website advertising the show we were at last night it stated that the show costed 100 Swedish kronor and that you had to be 23 years old (ha!) to get in. Nothing about a list of course. It's unfortunate that when international DJs and electronic musicians that I enjoy come to Stockholm they end up playing these sorts of places. Next time someone comes that I want to see I honestly don't know if I'll get through the door.

Justus Köhncke live at Berns, Stockholm - mp4 video


However, this show was essential for me as a musician. I watched the lines of producer, DJ and live musician blur the fuck out.

Oh, don't support Hammarby, that's just so kliché for musicians...

I force you to go for IFK Norrköping. ;)
