By name WRIGHT OF DERBY (b. Sept. 3, 1734, Derby, Derbyshire, Eng.--d. Aug. 29, 1797, Derby), English painter who was a pioneer in the artistic treatment of industrial subjects. He was also the best European painter of artificial light of his day.

Wright was trained as a portrait painter by Thomas Hudson in the 1750s. Wright's home was Derby, one of the great  centres of the birth of the Industrial Revolution, and his depictions of scenes lit by moonlight or candlelight combine the  realism of the new machinery with the romanticism involved in its application to industry and science. His pictures of  technological subjects, partly inspired by the Dutch followers of Caravaggio, date from 1763 to 1773; the most famous  are The Air Pump (1768) and The Orrery (c. 1763-65). Wright was also noted for his portraits of English Midlands  industrialists and intellectuals.

On the Dam Street near the Red Light District

A dance party every thursday night, in the Exit one of the oldest gay night clubs in Amsterdam.
With great DJ's, some local ones and some from all over the world.
The first three times it was nice but not busy but now it's starting to get memento and becoming very popular.
It's Underground music and as the title says it is for everybody so expect a blend of weird but wonderful characters .
