DWN FAQ
...Everything you never wanted to know about DWN.

Last updated, Feb 22, 2003

Where do you guys hang out?
CLUB SAPHIR, Montreal's Only Alternative.
3699 St-Laurent, Montreal, Qc, Canada, tel: (514) 284 - 5093

You've been at this for quite some time now, how long before Mr. Black has a nervous breakdown, quits the biz, and becomes a respectable member of society? 
Mr. Black has been lobotomized and is kept under heavy sedatives. He is, for all intents and purposes, a zombie. So DWN is a permanent staple at Club Saphir. 

Will the Music Format ever change in any way? 
Format? What's a format? 

Is it true that you've been wooed by other 'bigger' clubs? Any chance of you ever changing venues?
Yes and no, we feel Club Saphir has that certain Je-ne-sais-quoi (read: spooky atmosphere and great places to hide). It's also the site of the very first Dark Wave Night (way back in 1997), so we feel a great deal of attachment to the 'ole hell hole. Also, many patrons claim it's haunted by the ghost of Mr. Black (who, ironically enough, is not dead as of press time).

What's the meaning of life? 
None of your business.

I've often read/heard its current incarnation referred to as Dark Wave nights 5? What the hell happened to 1-2-3-4?
DWN 1 Was the original night at Purple Haze (Renamed Club Haze once we took over in 1997)
DWN 2: Electric Boogaloo Was held at club Ezra circa 1998-1999.
DWN 3: Ground Zero was the ill-fated Club Redemption stint of 2000. Bad vibes there.
DWN 4: Full Circle was the original limited run at Club Saphir, summer 2001.
Thus DWN 5: Mr. Black goes to hell begans November 9 2001 and continues to this very day!

Will going to a DWN help make me more attractive to members of the opposite sex? 
Yes. Absolutely, without a doubt. We promise. 

How much sucking up does it take to get a Request played at DWN? 
Depends on who you suck up to. While both Kingsley and Weatherhead are very receptive to unabashed flattery, Mr. Black is an adulation whore. He's your best bet. 

Is DWN a Goth night? 
If you are a Goth, the answer is Yes.
If you are not a Goth, the answer No.
Either way, your mother wouldn't approve.

I miss those comic-book-y posters you used to have, any more coming in the near future?
Yes, we're just waiting for the black India-ink shortage to be over.

Enough questions already. Just be there every Friday at Saphir. We'll take good care of you.
