Teen Gothic

So there is a goth/post punk/darkwave event happening here today. A daytime event on a Sunday. Pretty great idea if you ask me and I have tried to get stuff like this happening before. Even better the 2 DJs include one of the members of This Cold Night (local Adelaide Darkwave band many of you have heard of, they have been posted in r/goth before) and the other plays alt music on a local community radio station. So they know what they are doing and we will get what is advertised. This is my kind of event – during the day on a Sunday like the record club days but music I like to play myself and someone else is playing it.

The problem? This seems to be a last minute thrown together thing as no one knew about it until today. Instead of being there right now enjoying some great music and having a beer tor two I am here writing this post. If I had a few days notice I could have prepared and gone to it and I an sure most other people are in the same boat. I am hopeful it will happen again as one of the DJs saw my post sharing the event and liked it. I am following them now so hopefully I get more prior warning next time.

Not quite seething but certainly annoyed at the missed opportunity. This is why we promote our events.
