13/07/13: Nights at Dish have come to be known as quite eventful. And this week’s helping was no different.
Although the man himself, Tom Stephan, was living it up in Toyko his baby continued not to disappoint. And what’s the only way to make a better entrance than sashaying down the steps of East Bloc? Doing so with a buff dreamboy in tow. ‘Cause obviously it’s the only accessory that can compete with our Mulberry.
Borja Pena did his usual good job of warming up the crowd, not that with soaring temperatures in an underground basement, they needed it. Due to the creator swanning half way around the world, we were treated to a different Tom, Tom Peters. Who fortunately is as easy on the ears as he is on the eyes. And it wasn’t long before the crowd were panting and sweating like a Weight Watchers exercise class.
Over in room 2, Dayne Harper dropped the beats while we dropped to the floor (slut drops are still in, right?) before Lovebox DJ Mark Ashley Dupé had the room popping. Cathal O’Brien and Cesare Dario stirred up a sumptuous Side Dish of dirty beats and even dirtier boys. And you know it’s been a good night when you have flashbacks of kissing a stranger on the dance floor. As sexy as ever – Dish proved once again a fully satisfying course.
