But if you can stand the test, you know your worst is better than their best



We trotted along to the very first Electrosexual last night - Paul Burston and Dom Agius's new homo-retro-electro night at Freedom in Wardour Street, and had a fantastic time.

Although not packed, there was a healthy mix of people - those of us who actually remember the music from first time around, those who live the dream of being a Blitz kid, and people who just love to dance!


And there was plenty to make us dance like the Tukka-booted 80s throwbacks we are :-)

New Order, Blancmange, Giorgio Moroder, Kate Bush, Human League and Gary Numan were all the order of the day - each accompanied by whoops of delight from our corner.



And all this mixed subtly by Dom and Paul with some recent classics of the electro genre such as Hercules & the Affair and Roisin Murphy - although we were rather disparaging over the inclusion of Britney Spears. But Dom is forgiven, because he is so cute!



A great night, and one that I really recommend, but punters beware - Freedom's bar prices are not for the faint-hearted...
