      Comments Off on Reports – “Yellow & Green Had To be Seen” – The Week @ The Coronet – Saturday 2nd April – Preview The Review

Despite our mounting backlog of reviews, reports, newsletters & the like, given our most recent clubbing escapade in Elephant & Castle, we simply had to put proverbial pen to paper on our fresh felt & bite sized view of the night just savoured, our latest Preview The Review looking like this……

 

When Brazil’s best clubbing brand made it across the Atlantic Ocean and landed on London in September last year, no one could have imagined just what sort of an impact it would make, host venue Fire proving a perfect partner, at least in our eyes. So, having missed out on the next instalment which saw The Week move from Vauxhall to Elephant & Castle, we were keen to see how the switch to The Coronet would fare. And, arriving at just shy of midnight, the party did take a while to build, but with the company we were holding, we were suitably distracted, Steve Pitron & Celso Moura the delightful distraction for the perfect prelude to proceedings that gathered a sufficient head of steam only when the full-on & flamboyant stage shows swung into action. With beef & brawn brilliantly balanced with colourful costumes together with plumes of pyrotechnics, acrobatic displays & fire eating entertainers, there was no short of enticing eye candy, the cavorting crowd a good looking bunch too. In terms of the music, it was a shame Brazilian boy DouGuim had to play behind a huge black screen, only drawn back two hours into the audacious activity, Leandro Kloppel then attempting to hit, but for us, missing the mark with his music, while Sao Paulo resident jock Renato Cecin flexed his musical muscles as well as his pumped up physique to carry us along in waves of wonderment from our elevated spot on the VIP balcony. However  our night was made complete with, not just a myriad of familiar faces popping up to say hello, but by the captivating company of pals Stephen & Andy, but moreover the bountiful Bailey who was definitely the icing on our copious cake, his hugs & kisses hitting the mark magnificently, while his dextrous dancing was as dreamy as his distinguished draw. Our final fling was perfected by Paul Heron who masterminded a mountain of marvellous music through to the 6 a.m. finish, leaving us with so much more to say, meaning its “ready, steady, go for the review…” (DISCO MATT)

About discomatt

The History........................................................Created in 2008 after a short period of blogging under his real name, the pseudonym, “Disco Matt”, was born on the back of a reputation for being London’s original party boy having partied and clubbed across the London gay scene since in mid 1990’s.........................................................Through his series of blogs via individual blogging pages which soon morphed into a full blown website (http://discomatt.com), Disco Matt established himself as an independent journalist come columnist who quickly gained a reputation for supporting & promoting one of the world’s most prolific clubbing scenes. He previewed, reviewed & recommended London gay clubs, as well as the diverse gay/metrosexual London club/bar culture, linking to & reviewing the scene top D.J.’s and generally covering the gay scene including international gay events....................................................Regularly reporting on the top events across the scene, Disco Matt’s reviews, over the years, developed a strong following, not just by clubbers, D.J’s, promoters, music producers & scene faces, but people far and wide that were looking for an insight to the incredible scene that was London. He also previewed upcoming events that signalled, either a major change or update of existing clubs, new ventures on the gAylist/metrosexual scene, or where he considered events that deserved more comprehensive coverage to that provided in other posts.............................................However, having pretty much reached the top of his game in his chosen specific field, due to a number of personal predicaments, challenges & changes in his life priorities, Disco Matt parked his writing and operation in February 2014. While the burning desire to continue remained, what this much needed period of inactivity did provide was the time & space to re-think & re-focus his activities on a broader spectrum of media and entertainment............................................................So, following this long two year lay-off, he built up the foundations for this diversification into the areas of film, theatre, radio & television where his reviewing, recommending & reporting was to be replicated & resurrected, also pointing his promotions through more visuals & video's linked to all these areas along with his core activities and passions ................................................................................The Present....................................After another (shorter) period of lay-off from mid 2016, a life changing event reignited his passion and early into 2017, Disco Matt has delivered on his promise for a new, more modern look to his website, shedding the old & tired skin in favour of something far more in keeping with the times and with his blogging roots. And he has waived a fond farewell to his clubbing days, this having also been ditched from his site & activity, rather now just focussing on the genres of film, theatre, radio, television, video and of course, music, in so doing, aiming to broaden his appeal to a much wider audience interested in the latest most cutting edge areas of media & entertainment.............................................................................His aim is to be highly regarded across the industry for his writing in these fields and ultimately become a full time critic in film &/or theatre.
