Funky Anam

I've got two posts in me today, one I'm going to let fester in me for a while, the other one is right here. Yesterday went out for Tracey's Birthday. For a very brief couple of minutes I was contemplating about not going. This was after the 3 hour basketball session, and a splitting headache. I was lying there in bed, Perfect Circle in the background but I made it in the end, and it was best night I've had in London. Been here for 2 1/2 years, and I've not been to a single bar/club that I actually enjoyed. The reason is very simple, generally speaking the music that I like to dance to is just not something you find readily in England. Trust me, I know, I've lived here 8 years. The general populace will want to listen to UTTER shit when they dance. So I've developed a special talent, I can block out ALL music in places I go into.

Due to this, I generally have no inclination to actually staying late. Ah but this place Anam is different. I got in there, and it’s tiny. Hmm let’s see what it’s like downstairs. Still tight, and then I realised what music I was listening to. Cool and the Gang, the good MJ stuff, some funk, some soul. The DJ attempted putting on some hip hop which lasted 2 minutes with this crowd. Don’t get me wrong some Hip Hop I can handle, but not what he put on and not following on from the fantastic selection ( a lot of which I must say I’d never heard of but Archie asked for a couple of tracks from the DJ so maybe we’ll get some more new music as well).

I liked the atmosphere in there, and the people that worked there were pretty cool as well. Definitely one to do again.
