The sets are full sets, but each band has like one album out, so it's not longer than an hour. Late night, yes, the rockers still come by. As far as the DJ's, I haven't the foggiest idea as I don't usually do clubs unless there is live music - I'm usually just there for the bands. There was some buzz last night about Sunday's gig with Graham Coxon and 22-20's having the orignal Popscene DJ's - Aaron, Omar, Jeremy and Eric Shea - for a 9 Year Anniversary. As I've only been here about 2 years, that meant nothing to me, but maybe it means something to you. [/b]

From Sean at R5 Productions: "Unfortunately after moving the show from the first unitarian church to the starlight ballroom and then selling it out again, Bloc Party has postponed their Philadelphia tour date for tonight Wednesday April 6th. Their singer Kele completely lost his voice after an exhausting touring schedule. The band will be making up the Philadelphia date sometime in mid-June at The Starlight Ballroom." No word yet on how this will affect the remaining New York and DC dates.
