Stockholm club and concert tips: Friday, Jan 9
The Djungeltrumman club editor's tips.
Bauer Weekends
Address: Bauer, Götgatan 15
9pm - 1am
Free entry
Age: 20 and over
The hyper attractive Götgatan bar Bauer has made a major commitment to getting in great DJs every Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Large sections of the snazzy Stockholm elite are brought together in the large bar to play everything from hip hop, Baltimore club and disco to indie rock and electro.
Tonight
Guest DJ: Leppe Körsbär.
Blondie
Address: Knast, Upplandsgatan 7
9pm - 1am
Free entry
Age: 18 and over
Down among the graffiti-covered stone walls, the candlelit darkness, thick dry ice, red leather sofas and curious images of skeletons and popes, Stockholm legend Tommie X opens the doors every Friday night to his wonderfully decadent club, Blondie.
The club is a coming together of the gays and the fag hags, the media old timers and the nineteen year old barflies, bewigged anorexic monsters and confused but happy indie poppers and fashionistas.
There is room for everybody here, whether you want to dance 'til you sweat to life-affirming eurodisco or sit and make out in the black sofas.
DC Metro
Address: Metró, Götgatan 93
10pm - 3am
100 kronor (60 kronor with DC gold card)
Age: 20 and over
Building on its successes at Snaps and Sugar Bar (as well as earlier hits at Allhuset and Kolingsborg), Klubb Democrazy is broadening its empire still further. The club continues with its winning formula of indie, electro, hits from the eighties and nineties and other stuff you can dance to at Metró, located at the Skanstull end of Götgatan. Every second Friday the club will do its thing with resident DJs Mean Mr Mustard and Inverted mind.
Flyktsoda
Address: Debaser Slussen. Karl Johans Torg 1
8pm - 3am
100 kronor
Age: 20 and over
After almost a year and a half at Debaser Medis, Flyktsoda has moved a few hundred metres north to sister venue Debaser Slussen.
But the club is the same: David Kaijser & Gustav Gelin, as well as a couple of interesting pop and rock bands and guest DJs playing the best of indie, Britpop, soul, punk, electro, disco and rock.
The club also hosts Bombens Pianobar, where well-known guest artists try their hand at some covers.
Julia
Address: Restaurangen, Oxtorgsgatan 14
9pm - 1am
Free entry
Age: 20 and over
The media crowd's favourite hang-out is back. After a summer expedition to Spymlan and earlier escapades at Riche, Berns and Tranan, Fredrik Virtanen and Tom Pyl have finally found their way back home to safety.
Every Friday the media elite makes a pilgrimage to the bar section of Melker Andersson's very fine Restaurangen where they listen to soft rock, west coast pop, mature soul, friendly pop, FM rock, singalong anthems and camp fire standards. Fredrik and Tom are often joined by guest DJs who are not entirely unknown.
LOVE
Address: Marie Laveau, Hornsgatan 66
10pm - 3am
100 kronor
Age: 20 and over
Four of the city's most diligent DJs combine their loving hearts in a bid to bring pop back to the dance floor.
Terry Ericsson, Lång-Kalle, Miriam Pemberton and Magdalena Lublin hold their LOVE club every second Friday on both floors of the ever popular Marie Laveau - up in the bar and down on the sweaty dancefloor.
Aside from the residents, there will also be wonderful guests playing favourites from four decades of pop.
On each occasion the club also awards a free dinner date to a couple of its choice.
Tonight
The first LOVE of the year is dedicated to Franke, whose new album will be played in its entirety during the first hour.
Trinity Sound
Address: Bysis, Hornsgatan 82
10pm - 3am
Age: 20 and over
Trinity Sound has been spreading the word of reggae in Stockholm since 1993. A lot of people and parties have passed in that time, but trinity veterans like Governor Andy, Daddy Boastin, Fabulous G and DJ Flars are still there behind the decks and the mics, making sure the party never ends.
