Are you looking for strictly alternative 80's? If so, good luck finding anyplace else. Dave and Kristine do take requests on Thursday nights and try to accommodate everyone. Dave does know how to DJ and has been doing it at NEO (and previously at 950) for at least 20 years. Sometimes it's just a matter of waiting to hear a good set of music. We usually stay until close when we go so we can hear the 80's punk/ska set at the end of the night. A non-80's alternative you might want to try is Smart Bar. Thursday nights have been new electronicy dance music (electroclash). It's not house/techno music; it's more in the line with early Depeche Mode. This upcoming Thursday, November 14, Add N to (X) and Soviet (both new electronic dance bands) are going to be playing at Empty Bottle. One other place that I have not been to is Big Wig on Division and Ashland. I hear they play decent non-rave dance music on Thursday (but this is second hand knowledge). Good luck.
