Part Book Reading, Part Electro-Dance Party?


Indeed.

From a piece in the New York Daily News...

What is it with kids today? All they want to do is go to their dance clubs and listen to house music. Why don't they read a book, for God's sale?

Well, hold on. Fresh out of Germany is an idea that, I hope, will soon sweep the United States, from Miami Beach to the Meatpacking District: combining reading and clubbing.

Oh, yes. This is really, truly happening.

According to a report in Deutsche Welle, the "Klubbing" series sponsored by a Cologne radio station "is part book-reading, part electro music club-night."

Perfect. Nothing brings out the nuances of Goethe like the thrumming rhythms of deep house.
