Milwaukee has so many world class vinyl nights that I might forget some.
Mondays = The Soul Hole, a 10yr running institution
2nd Saturdays = the Get Down, heavy funk & soul party
3rd Fridays = Street Lamp Soul Party, classy across the board soul spin
3rd Saturdays = Lazersweat, boogie disco modern
Thrusdays = Soundz from the Hotline, Jamaican night heavy on the insane 80s digi dancehall
Fridays = Soul Night with Kid Millions
some Fridays = Sweet Breeze, major league latin spin
1st Saturdays = Uptown Saturday Night, random rare & oldschool hip hop by the Dope Folks guys
Up All Night & Moonstomp happen alternating months. The former is a soul spin that takes place in this gorgeous 19th century beer hall in the old Pabst Brewery complex. Moonstomp is a skinhead reggae night happening at a divey southside bar. Both are run by the same two dudes.
Here in Oakland, the homies DJ Platurn, E Da Boss, and I do the 45 Sessions every month. Play whatever you want to play, as long as it's on 7-in vinyl. It's my favorite gig by far.
1) Hipshaker - Deep soul/rnb all vinyl night, pimped out wooden 45 cases and dancers, tons of dancers - Second Thursday every month at the kitty cat klub
2) Hotpants - Soul/funk - 2nd saturday of each month at club jager - shit tons of fun
3) Selecta's Choice - Roots, dancehall and a little hip hop - Every saturday at Asian Taste
4) Venerable King Otto - Whatever the king wants to god damn play - every saturday for brunch at Muddy Waters
I know I am missing a shit ton, including a bunch of house/disco nights. Hopefully the other twintittians will chime in.

And that's it.
Loads of other nights in the city but sadly no wax to be seen.
Format still stuck at 1985....night celebrated 11 years last September.
I'm a dummy and can't figure out how to embed the vid so you can follow the link to watch a 3 min slice of life from our night...
