It seems like the days of the dance party are over here in Buffalo. Just a few short years ago our city had themed dance parties every other week (Shock & Awe, Friction, Communist Party) and then, just like that, they were gone. The operating word here is seems.

Buffalo's first, and longest-running dance party, Transmission, is alive and thriving, thanks to a dedicated following, and DJ's who've weathered the trends, to bring us timeless indie and alternative dance music time and time again. Transmission has come to represent a celebration of all things dance, and, along with the Smiths vs. Cure dance party (brought to you by some of the same folks), has been churning out great music and memories for over a decade.

For most of this time Transmission considered Mohawk Place home. Since the venue closed in January, Transmission has been looking for a new place to rest its head and they may have found it in Tudor Lounge, the sight of tonight's festivities (10pm). Personally, I think Tudor is the perfect spot for this event, with its cozy atmosphere and inviting dance floor.

Saturday nights were made for dancing. Get the gear ready and spill out tonight.
