| Mojo's is now Karma. But I still can't work out what I've done wrong in my life to deserve ending up there. The venue's had an expensive-looking refit in the past few months. It's made the bar a multi-purpose venue; they advertise themselves as being a "coffee bar to late night venue". Consequently, it looks almost exactly like the Student Union bar in Hollyoaks. And that's the least of its problems. Thursday night is 80s night, with novelty hats, wigs and glasses available at the bar, for only £2.75, as advertised by the large day-glo signs, which are either trying to be in keeping with the theme of the night, or just happened to be cheap down at the stationer's. Our DJ (although I hesitate to call him that, because his mixes were so slick they must either have been the result of a compilation CD, or - more likely given the bizarre order of his playlist - some beatmatching software) was not shy of using his microphone to get the crowd excited, using skills he might have picked up in the fairground down the road. He was mostly unintelligible, but we did learn that there was some sort of more exciting DJ playing at Karma this Sunday. I didn't manage to pick up who, though - DJ Hennessey is far more suited to telling us to "scream if you wanna go faster". I did worry a little about the DJ's eyesight, though -- given his complete inability to read the crowd. Around 11 o'clock, as the bar rapidly emptied (Evesham's other hell-hole, Innuendo had just opened for the night), he treated us to that cheesy club classic, Bon Jovi's Living on a Prayer. As it got to the chorus, he shouted into the mic for everybody to join in, and at "Whoa-oh", dipped the music to be greeted with silence. The dancefloor was empty, save for a few sad lights and a solitary laser. The clientele do appear to enjoy it, though. Perhaps I just wasn't drunk enough, or maybe they just don't know any better. I've had more enjoyable nights out in Norwich though, and that's saying something. nonstick - 4 May 2007 18:05 |
