Bars hold iPod nights for iDrunk DJs
Register, UK
Most of the mormons we know aren't terribly fond of the sauce, but someone needs
to buy Dell CEO Kevin Rollins a beer before it's too late.
Rollins recently dubbed Apple's iPod "fad," and he may well miss out on the
iParty if he doesn't get down to the iBar quick. Pubs and clubs around the globe
have started holding iPod nights where customers can bring in their devices,
plug into the house music system and DJ for a period of time. One such iParty
will take place this Saturday at the Progress Bar in London.
"Playlist invites all music lovers and makers, dancers, beatmixers, mash-up
artists and wannabe superstar DJs to come along and get 15 minutes to play your
top tunes to the Playlist Party People," says the invite.
Sure, there is an enormous "ifad" quality to the whole iPod bar scene. Patrons
and bar owners alike stick an "i" in front of anything they can. Chicago's Tonic
Room has iTuesdays, APT in New York has an iParty and even Microsoft has an
iBore. Trendy turns into hankey pretty quick when bars all start offering the
same, geek festival.
