Our good friends Jon and Andrea (pictured above) shot some pictures from Menages last Friday where the Control Freeks, Donald Glaude and DJ Dan spun records for what turned out to be a much better crowd than I expected, given that I hadn’t been there in close to two years. For those that don’t know, Menages is located at the same venue that was previously known as Club Kandi. But I gotta give props to the people at Kandi/Menages for transforming the place into something enjoyable. This is just what the KC dance scene needed this summer. I missed out on the Control Freeks set on this night, but I agree with others who were there that Donald Glaude did entirely too much scratching. Overall, it was a good time. Here’s to more fun parties at Menages in the future, where the resident Control Freeks will be opening up for a ton of headlining DJs all summer and into the Fall, pretty much every Friday from now on. This Friday is DJ Icey, who I’m not really a fan of, but I’ll go anyways because of the free ticket (and three free Beatport downloads) I got when I paid the cover at Menages last Friday…which was pretty sweet.
Below are a few choice pictures that Jon shot at Menages for CTF, Glaude and Dan last Friday, but here’s a link to Jon and Andrea’s full album on photobucket: http://s129.photobucket.com/albums/p231/jonboykc/danandong/?start=all
