Quick Take

DJs Bob Mould (yes, that Bob Mould) and Richard Morel spin everything from indie to hard-charging electronica. This is a 21 and over event.

Editorial Review

One of the biggest success stories of the last few years is the growth of Blowoff, the DJ night run by legendary guitarist Bob Mould (Husker Du, Sugar) and remixer/producer Richard Morel (New Order, the Pet Shop Boys). The duo's gone from a monthly gig spinning records in the cramped second floor of the Velvet Lounge to a regular spot in the cramped downstairs bar of the 9:30 club, and then on to a (mostly) monthly dance party on the 9:30's mainstage. No matter which venue they've called home, Blowoff has kept the party going, mixing indie, electro and full-bore dance remixes into eclectic, enjoyable sets. Last year, the duo released its first album, a synthesis of pop-rock hooks and beat-heavy electronica.

Bears, bears, bears, oh my!

While everyone is welcome, please note that this is primarily an event for Gay men, specifically the Bear community. If you'll be bothered by a bunch of large, bearded, hairy men (mostly shirtless) butt-slappin' and kissing each other, please find something else to do. If, however, you're older and larger than most of the Gay dance twinks, and want a place to dance where you'll be welcomed, please consider joining us!
