The best kept secret in music

While The Collective and Die Maschine didn't have the loudest soundsystems and were never the fanciest clubs in Winnipeg, the Osborne Village complex did have the best club night in town (Good Form) and also hosted its fair share of excellent bands over the years. Although Good Form will likely find another home, losing another live music venue is going to have an impact. Filling a much needed hole in Winnipeg's club scene, Mike B. and Rob Vilar's Good Form not only offered up cutting-edge indie rock, dance-punk, electro and hip hop week after week, it never lost its focus or appeal despite increasing popularity... - Anthony Augustine - Uptown Magazine
Up until a few weeks ago mkb and rob villar had the best dance party in town. Every Thursday they threw down electro sleaze, mashups, hip hop, new wave, indie whathaveyou to growing crowds at The Collective. The venue was sold and an American Apparel outlet will open in it's place. Good Form is now looking for a good home. - Manalogue.com

Bio
Really brief/temporary bio:
** Check http://planetshhh.com/?page_id=362 for live mixes **
Have been involved with promoting/booking indie bands in Manitoba since 1996. Jumped into the DJ side of things in 2006 when I founded the popular alternative club night called Goodform (indie night), where we spun the likes of indie, electro, new wave, disco/punk and hip hop. After closing in late '07 due to American Apparel taking over the venue space, we've currently started GF up again at Lo Pub - every Thursday night.
