Five years ago during #COVID lockdowns in the UK, two alt DJs started a weekly music live stream, the Chaos Emergency Doof Broadcast [doof.org.uk].
Five years later, tonight is their 270th show. That's five years of Lee and Tes sharing 4 hours of music, chat and silliness with the Internet. For people like me, unable to go out clubbing because #CovidIsNotOver, it has been a lifeline of social contact and good tunes. There have been special events, charity fundraisers and more.
For their 5th birthday the hosts have asked us to invite new people to join the community. We listen on #Twitch, and (optionally) chat on #Discord. There are themed rounds, chosen at random by spinning the Wheel. It is lovely and cosy and fun.
So if you're able to listen to Internet stuff between 7-11pm UK time, tonight or pretty much any other Thursday, join them (and me) at Lee's Twitch [twitch.tv]!
Our Doof hosts were performing musical accompaniment to Darude - "Sandstorm" on a variety of kazoos and rubber chickens until they made themselves crack up.
