VinylJunkie

29th August 2009
The Underground @ Kennedys
Westland Row,
Dublin 2



Doors 10pm
Admission: E10

If you are not aware the Kitchen-Sync is an online radio station set up by the members of boards. We are going to use this event as a meet up for all users of the Music forum, so if you’re a regular poster or just a reader feel free to come along. We are urging people to get in as early as possible Doors open at 10pm and we would like to have the place full for the night. On show are three excellent DJ's, all members of boards and DJ's on the Kitchen-Sync.
The music will range from Tech House to Minimal with Steve capping the night off with a Live set performed on the electribes!

Members of Boards can get a reduced admission of E8 by sending me a PM.

Are any of us going to meet up for a few drinks beforehand? Maybe just in the Bar in Kenneddy's for a few pints before going downstairs to the gig?

VinylJunkie

Anyone got a place in mind? sounds good!

So just reminding all Boardies....
Saturday night is the first Kitchen-Sync LIVE event. Featuring fellow boards members at the decks and an opportunity to meet up and put faces to those screen names. If thats a good idea for some of you!
Boards members can get into the gig for €8, but you have to PM Vinyljunkie as he's running the guestlist for the night.
From what I've been told the plan is to meet in Kennedys From 9pm with the gig Kicking off @ 11
with a special Live set from myself (Captain Random) before passing over to Sean for some quality Minimal Techno and finally the excellent, no need for introduction, but there's one anyway, Steve Donaldson, to do some serious speaker damage till the wee hours.
This is going to be a very fun night. Hope to see ye all there!

Good luck with the gig tonight boys unfortunately i cant make it but hopefully there will be plenty more more Kitchen-Sync nights and ill definitely be at the next one.

Davei141

What an epic night random sean and steve all played blinders and the dance floor was full all night, fair play lads and great crowd.

Zascar

Great night lads - I was just so impressed, fair play to Sean and the lads for setting it up, it was brilliant. Great to meet you all finally, hope this will be the first of many.

I really was seriously impressed with the music all night long from start to finish, real quality all the way. I've heard Enda play in the beacon before but last night he really stepped it up and was cranking out some really great quality house and got the place going quickly. Sean C came on with a cracking selection of excellent tech house and techno, a savage set, everyone said so. And then SteveDon came on and just had jaws dropping from the word go. I would have been bowled over if it was a DJ set, but to actually think that every single strack was produced by himself, is just staggering.

I was not drinking cause I was still fooked from the night, but so glad I came in cause it was a very good night. Well done everyone, great to meet you all, can't wait for the next one!

Savage night alright lads, after reading Z's review, was no way under the impression the tracks were home made, so to speak, excellent stuff.

I was out from Fri night though and all day yesterday and last night, good times!

VinylJunkie

Yeah was an excellent night all round, thanks to everyone who came in and thanks to Enda and Steve!

Back to Bed

franklyshocked

It was a damn shame the wifi wasn't working coz I wanted to do a live broadcast from the mixer which would have been savage.
I had an absolute ball last night. I got a great response from everyone for my set and it was deadly to see people dancing from the word go. Great to see Sean whopping out the tunes to a decent crowd and Steve is just a gifted musician.
Glad to see all the effort paid off and hopefully we can get another Kitchen-Sync Showcase in the next month or two with some more DJ's from the roster.
I recorded my set so I'll try to post a link for yez during the week.
Shattered. Heading for bed. :P

They are some excellent shots man.
Any pics or vids of set at the start

VinylJunkie

Cheers for them pics J Dee, We will be defiantly doing this again sometime. I'm itching to get more gigs I really enjoyed last night.

I have a rough set list if anyone wants it I can send it to them on a PM. My only worry for the night was the lack of a Booth Monitor meant I couldn't really hear my mixing I kept asking a mate what it was sounding like on the dance floor. I heard him scream AVVVV IT so I presumed it was ok

Keep the pictures coming, Im asking around on facebook too so ill post them here if I get any.

drewdo

Credit to the three boys last night, Captain, SeanC and SteveDon, fairlplay to ye's. Well done on the whole night.

Absolutely me !!! Love the theme and thats a grand little location. I have a good spot in there so I'd be very happy with that.

Is this thread gonna be the permanent spot for upcoming gigs??
It'd be handy if it was lads.

Well done lads, be great to run a regularr kitchen-sync night if they continue to be successful. Be nice for all the djs who have been putting the time in over the last few months to get a gig
