Sunday, London Sunday

Posted on March 28, 2016April 13, 2016 by Maestro Saturday

Picking up where we left off at the church of St. John at Hackney, the Mister is back at Oval Space in early April for our first Sunday party in London in 2016.

Those Sundays in Bethnal Green last year were loads of fun, so there’s no fussing with the formula – it’s soul food on the terrace, a toasty sound system with plenty of oversize balloons inside, and Eamon and Justin at the controls through the afternoon and into the night.

We get psyched about the above anyway, but the fact that it’s all correlated with the clocks springing forward has us more excited than ever about the prospect of another one of those sun-drenched dancefloor experiences…

So yes, the forecast is looking good from our side!

We’re looking forward to seeing you there. Basic info and a link to tickets is over on the right. If you’re not in London but know folks there, spread the word.

Hello Friends: A New Party with Anthony Naples

Hello Friends. It’s Anthony Naples’ new party in New York City. Tony mans the turntables, lights and sound effects all night. Team Mister supplies the sound and the nice security guys. This is the first one. It’s at Silent Barn.

Hallelujah in London

We’re headed back to London, and this time, we’ve got something new up our sleeves.

We’re taking all the good times we had at Mister Sunday last year, moving them up to a beautiful medieval church in the middle of Hackney and switching around the days of the week for the first ever Mister Saturday party anywhere ever (note the lack of “Night” – we shall explain).

Misters Justin Carter and Eamon Harkin will be at the controls, and the Black Atlantic guys will be bringing in a six-point Funktion-One system to keep the audiophiles immersed in the details and the dancers popping right to the end.

The party goes from 5pm to 11pm (hence that omission of “Night” above – told you we’d explain); tasty food and quality drinks that won’t break your bank abound; and when the sun sets through those massive stained glass windows, it’s easily going to be the best time you’ll have in a church in 2016.

We’ve got plenty of space on the floor for the whole family (actual or spiritual), so let the homies know. Tickets are here.

If you’re in London, we hope to see you there; if you’re not but you know someone who is, let ’em know!

Keep Warm

It’s an intimate edition of Mister Sunday at Shea Stadium (not the old Mets stadium, the DIY venue in Brooklyn – that would not be so intimate). We set up the big old soundsystem and have Eamon Harkin and Justin Carter air out their bags of wax for the afternoon and evening.

Tickets often sell out in advance, so it’s always a good idea to get in early.

See you on the floor…

Shea, Shea, Shea

We’ve got our first dance of 2016 on January 17th. It’ll be the first of a handful of monthly indoor Mister Sundays at the scrappy (yet charming) Shea Stadium.

If you’ve never joined us at Shea, there are a few things to know. First, Shea Stadium is a DIY space in Brooklyn, not the former home field of Darryl Strawberry, Mookie Wilson, Doc Gooden and Keith Hernandez. (Go Mets.) It holds only about .5% the amount of people as the OG Shea Staidum, so it’s a good idea to get a ticket.

Second, it’s all ages, so come one, come all.

Third, and most importantly, some of our favorite Misters of all time have happened there. Something about the sun shining onto that little dancefloor brings out some extra magic.

Looking forward to seeing you there on the 17th. Until then, be well!
