Review: Chronologic @ the Boat, Kensington
I have to write a review about this, because it was one of the most unique parties I've been to.
It all began with a random convo with Veronica which turned into let's go to this retro party on Sat. Cool, why not do something new?
There was a huge ass lineup at 940. Was at capacity by just after 10 (it's a small restaurant). Walked up the stairs to hear classic music being played. Deffo weird, but I think it's 'club hits' from every decade starting from 1900. So as the day went on, the music progressed along, and gradually switched to swing/jazz from 30/40s, then to 50s and so on. By the time classic hits from 80s and 90s came on, I was on full sing a long mode. Because nobody can resist singing to Madonna or Ace of Base. A lot of songs I haven't heard in a long time.
The crowd was really friendly and everyone was dancing from the start. Drinks were cheap. I think 2 bucks for domestic beers.
I left when the music turned into too much modern crappy hiphop/top40 junk. But I had a wonderful time with friends (lots of TAs for this one) and it was fun to do something different on a Sat night instead of typical EDM clubbing. Will deffo go back again.
PS: If you do want to go to this, go there by 930.
