On this occassion I&#8217;m really glad they didn&#8217;t join me. This was a really funny (read tragic) night, I&#8217;m glad I didn&#8217;t subject them to it.<\/p>\n<p>Some random thoughts and observations in regard to this night out&#8230;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>So, Bread And Butter &#8211; Is a &#8216;minimal tech&#8217; night huh? Sounds like house\/electro-house to me. No idea who played for the 40 minutes heard before <strong>Oliver Huntemann<\/strong> came on, but it wasn&#8217;t minimal and it wasn&#8217;t tech.<\/li>\n<li>The all too predictable &#8216;who are you\/why should I let you in&#8217; vibe from the bouncer at the roped off entrance to the club with no name outside, said it all, as to what kind of club\/night this is\/was going to be. *Tip* Say you&#8217;re on the (ITM) guest list regardless if you are or not.<\/li>\n<li>You&#8217;re giving us _that_ attitude outside and _this_ is the crowd inside? Err, who are you not letting in?<\/li>\n<li>So this is where all the young, trendy, fashion obsessed, vain, self absorbed, MySpace generation hang out. The place was absolutely packed full of them!<\/li>\n<li>This club has completely changed from the days of Crunch @ Frontier, it&#8217;s really been opened up, with &#8216;pretty&#8217; (read horrible) decor everywhere. The DJ booth is right down in the back corner of the venue. I doubt most of the crowd there even know\/care where it is. Sound is loud and harsh on the ears.<\/li>\n<li>Checking out the crowd, I&#8217;m surprised there&#8217;s still any stock left in Industrie stores. I hate those buttoned white striped t-shirts! Sheep! Why is everyone wearing white to night-clubs these days?<\/li>\n<li>Do girls learn how to (lack of) dress and dance from Usher and 50 Cent videos these days? They hate being ignored too, it really confuses them.<\/li>\n<li>So many vain people, taking photos of themselves, checking themselves in the mirrors at every opportunity, dancing to be noticed; pay attention to me, I&#8217;m beautiful. Eugh!!<\/li>\n<li>The &#8216;real&#8217; minimal sounds <strong>Oliver Huntemann<\/strong> played actually sent a large portion of people off the dance floor. Heard\/saw quite a few people around us saying &#8220;What&#8217;s this shit?&#8221; walking off in a huff.<\/li>\n<li>The over excited DJ fan-boys crowded around the DJ booth screaming and arm throwing at every slight variation of music intensity was hilarious. Woo, a hi-hat came in!<\/li>\n<li>I think <strong>Oliver Huntemann<\/strong> would sound more interesting if he actually ventured outside of that Giant Wheel, Spiel-Zeug Schallplatten, Int. Deejay Gigolos, Confused, Rekorder labels sound. Mixing everything outro to intro is pretty lame. We stayed for an hour of his set, it really didn&#8217;t seem to be going anywhere. Sure, I like some of those tracks, but played all together in a row like that isn&#8217;t very interesting.<\/li>\n<li>I noticed quite a few dodgy looking old guys (40+) in this place too, shirts and suits, with their eyes popping out of their heads at the sight of any young girl in the place. Mates of the owners? promoters?<\/li>\n<li>The obvious &#8216;powder room&#8217; employees only door with packs of guys entering\/exiting constantly near the DJ booth is very&#8230; err&#8230; obvious!<\/li>\n<li>I found it really hard to stop myself from laughing at all the totally clich\u00e9d people\/sights and happenings in this place.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I love being jaded. Yeah sorry, it&#8217;s just not my scene. I like being amongst people who care more about the music than how much time\/$ they spent on their image to be seen in the scene.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>More info if you&#8217;re interested&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.huntemann.co.uk\">http:\/\/www.huntemann.co.uk<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/breadandbuttermusic\">http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/breadandbuttermusic<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/ladyluxnightclub\">http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/ladyluxnightclub<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m often dissapointed when friends don&#8217;t come out clubbing.
