Black & Blue 2009: Sasha, John Digweed and Dave Seaman
Tuesday, September 8th 2009
Words: BBCM
True to its mandate of organizing large multimedia events and seeking to spur the enthusiasm of an audience of ever increasing sophistication, BBCM Foundation takes great pleasure in announcing that the DJs for the main Black & Blue Festival event to be held at Palais des Congrès on Sunday, October 11th will be Sasha, John Digweed (two of the top ten DJs in the world according to DJMag's top 100 list) and Dave Seaman from the UK, and Montréalers Franco Fabi and Stéfane Lippé. An announcement earlier this summer to this effect triggered a wave of ticket buying and provided advance indication that the 2009 Festival promises to be a hit with attendees. This year's Black & Blue will showcase a concept dubbed "LITE Switch" which was developed around the theme of light in collaboration with lighting design expert François Roupinian of Lightemotion. The light immersion concept, intended as the sole backdrop for the dance floor, is designed to create a realm unto itself and an extraordinary experience for participants. The main Black & Blue evening event will include a block-buster show segment, as well as theme-based entertainment. This year's main show, "Switch Me On", will be directed by Mika of Théâtre POD and choreographed by Jean-Marc St-Yves.
This year's official Black & Blue Festival program lineup will run from October 7th to 13th and will include the ever popular Leather Ball (Friday, October 9th at Medley), Military Ball (Saturday, October 10th at Salle Telus) and Recovery Party (Monday, October 12th at Circus), in addition to a host of other activities in Village area clubs.
