Rusty Egan presents Blitz Club / Visage 80s DJ Set – Sound and Vision.
Inside Blitz – the club that birthed an 80s revolution.
Rusty will be presenting an extensive 80’s DJ Set from his days at the Blitz Club, featuring many tracks from his chart-topping Demon Records, ‘BLITZED’ box set including tracks by Visage, the band he formed with Midge Ure, with amazing visuals on screen from the Blitz Club and the New Romantic Movement, edited by Blitzed documentary director Bruce Ashley, and Paul Linney.
Rusty will be accompanied on stage by Singer/Dancers Georgina Baillie https://georginabaillieart.net/ and Chrys Columbine https://chryscolumbine.com/ and he will bring just a few CD and Vinyl box sets to sign.
Blitz Club in Covent Garden was opened in 1979 by Rusty Egan and Steve Strange and was the epicentre of both music and fashion.
Many musicians would be there on a regular basis, including the Blitz Club’s cloakroom manager Boy George, Sade, Spandau Ballet, Billy Idol, Ultravox, Visage, Adam And The Ants, Bananarama, Marilyn, Gary Numan, Siouxsie and Sigue Sigue Sputnik. All were soaking up the sounds Egan was seeking out during his regular record buying trips to the Continent - a propulsive, mostly electronic sonic palette which he would serve up on a weekly basis with the aim of exciting and inspiring this new generation of extravagantly-dressed young artists, designers, fashionistas, club impresarios, actors, broadcasters, journalists, writers, music moguls, DJs and future pop royalty, all busily plotting worldwide domination within the club’s Covent Garden confines every Tuesday night.
