 Bring
And Share
Bring & Share is a monthly one-nighter
hosted from what could be an abandoned living room above a
pub. The concept is that you create
the soundtrack for the night. It works with an ingenious INBOX
and OUTBOX system where the DJ is given a totally random eclectic
mix of records provided by a crowd armed with their bedroom
vinyl. The result is a diverse and unpredictable DIY soundtrack
- a place where Blondie gets into bed with the Sugar Hill
Gang and the Eurythmics share the limelight with the White
Strips. The type of night that invites you to make friends
with the DJ - a kind of interaction with the night that you
won't get anywhere else. Bring and Share: The Enterprise,
2 Havestock Hill, Chalk Farm, London NW3. Tube: Chalk Farm.
