Bloggerpalooza!

By kate at 20 October, 2009, 11:13 am

Who better to bring the tunes at tomorrow night’s Manchester Blog Awards party than Manchester’s finest music bloggers?  Some of our favourite mp3 bloggers will be taking part in Bloggerpalooza, a unique music streaming event that will be happening during the Manchester Blog Awards at Band on the Wall.

At tomorrow’s event, the blogger DJs will send out a continuous live feed to a page on the MBA site (we’ll post it here as soon as it’s up) with information on the tracks they’re playing. A simultaneous web and video feed will broadcast the sights and sounds of the event to users online, who can comment on the music via twitter.

The DJ’s will be playing throughout the MBA event, but we’ll keep the sound turned off in the venue when the blog readings and awards are happening. After the talking bit’s over (around half nine) there will be a couple of hours of  music and party time. Here’s the schedule of who’s playing when.

Indie Credential – 6pm

Cosmic Disco – 7pm

Just Press Play – 8pm

Yer Mam 9pm

Cosmic Disco 10pm

DJ Battle-off 11pm

Big thanks to Jon and Ben at Cahoona, who organised the original Bloggerpalooza as part of Futuresonic in May 2008 and made it happen again at this year’s Blog Awards.
