Guilty Pleasures – A Weekly Dance Night in Allston

Commodore Vic and Seth Damascus-Kennedy Present Guilty Pleasures, a
weekly dance night of music from the late 70's and early 80's.

WHERE / WHEN: Guilty Pleasures takes place every Wednesday at The Common Ground Bar & Grill, 85 Harvard Avenue in Allston, Massachusetts. The music starts at 10 PM. The event is intended for those of legal drinking age.
SUMMARY: Guilty Pleasures features dance music from the past 30 years, with a strong focus on keyboard-tinged R&B, new wave, disco and "Blue-eyed soul" from the late 70's and early 80's. That means lots of Donna Summer, Hall & Oates, and New Order to keep the anglophiles happy.
Cross-armed hipsters beware: We are out to crack your shell, and possibly shave your beard. Guilty Pleasures is a night for music snobs to come down, put their intellectual prejudices on hold and embrace the physicality of a great dance song. Pabst Blue Ribbon sipping scenesters may end up silently cursing their own innate humanity as they experience involuntary pelvic gyration.

QUOTABLE: "We have nothing against current dance music, we're sure to blur the lines a bit and play some Sean Paul or Kylie, but this stuff from 1982
is what we're mad for." - Commodore Vic

"All the records that've been sampled in hip hop for the past twenty
years, the Bill Withers and Boz Skaggs, that's what we're giving you,
in their original form." - Seth Damascus-Kennedy

He's also developed a reputation for throwing notorious Wham/George Michael-themed house parties in the wilds of rat & bedbug-infested Allston. Seth is the proud owner of more baseball-related clothing and merchandise than can be sanely justified, including an Expos vending machine which he keeps locked in the relative the safety his bedroom.
