Visits 4TH BIRTHDAY Ego. Edinburgh. Tue 11 Apr
Vibe, the weekly Edinburgh club night that mixes cheesy chart sounds with R&B, celebrates its fourth birthday this month with a gala birthday bash on
April 11.
The irrepressible DJ and promoter James Longworth will have his hands on the decks while the Vibe dancers and singers — and a few planned surprises - are guaranteed to draw a crowd that surpasses the regular 450 coming through the doors. Says Longworth: ‘I think Vibe's success can be put down to the balance of a good variety of music, fair door charge, and
super-cheap pound-a-drink deals.‘
Vibe has welcomed 77,000 customers through its doors since opening. and in the first year outgrew the top floor of Ego, where Longworth plays a mix of chart-based party tunes to a mainly young. male crowd. R&B was added on the club’s first birthday, downstairs in the Cocteau Lounge. and has boosted numbers with those looking for a less cheesy alternative. James launched Vibe’s successful sister club night, Blaze, three years ago.
It runs most Fridays, also at Ego.
Longworth studied at Edinburgh University, leaving with a psychology degree in 1998. He planned to work in radio, but decided to stay in Scotland and accepted a job as a DJ when Bar 02 launched. Outside of the clubs, James’ lifestyle is pretty infamous. He has an airline pilot's licence - ‘a back-up in case people stop coming to my clubs‘ - and is a flight instructor at Cumbernauld airport, ‘when I can get out of bed early enough’. He even has his own aeroplane.
His passion for motors extends to a collection of classic cars and a superbike - no wonder the guy was voted the 30th most eligible bachelor in Scotland last year. (Brian McGeachan)
