"For TEN years now, Dave Paul (proprietor of hip-hop label Bomb Records) has hosted and DJ'ed at the brilliant "Prince vs. Michael Jackson" parties. As selections of hits, rarities, and remixes from both artists are presented over the course of the evening, audience members square off in funky battle, holding signs bearing the mug of their favored entertainer to judge which one is the true king of pop. This sure ain't the place for cynics, but Darling Nikki's and Dirty Diana's are all welcome to participate." - SF WEEKLY

"I remember going to this night and not only having the time of my life but seeing so many other people having the time of their life - and that's not an exaggeration. There is such a rare form of positive vibes across the audience. I recall even the most "acoustic & woodsy music loving/ lone wolf/ mainstream hating" of my friend circle reluctantly winding up at the Prince & MJ night with me one night a long time ago and 20 minutes into it running into him dancing his ass off with a drink in one hand and a random girl in the other." - Tim O.

“Like I posted many times there is no place other than a Prince Michael experience... You are making me a bigger and bigger fan each time you bring your skills and PASSION to Chicago. Thanks for another night of memories!” - Samantha K.

“great job last night. I love how when i come there i dance with the same "Strangers" from the last party” - Kandyce B.

“thanks for a Great time!!! I had the time of my life!” - Ronchelle N.

“i really enjoyed hearing that version of Extraloveable... Awesome! We really appreciate u coming 2 the Chi... thank u SO much” - Leslie T.

“You were FANTASTIC last night at the Beauty Bar in Chicago. You have to love the pure joy that you bring to people's lives with your talent!” - Kimberley R.

“It's seriously the most fun I've EVER had at a club! The vibe is amazing, people are happy, and Dave is such a good DJ!” - Annette S.

“I would visit San Francisco just to go to your party smile” - Gloria B.

“It is an amazing moment to turn around at any given time during the night to see fans singing along and feeling the music.” - Trina F.

"This is definitely the place to be for the monthly Prince and Michael Experience. If you like good music, good people, good drinks, and BIG FUN - get yourself to the Madrone every 1st Saturday of the month!" - Star C.

"My favorite night is the Prince and Michael Jackson Experience. They play Prince, MJ and related artists such as Janet Jackson and Sheila E. all night. It is THE best dance party in the bay area!!" - Larissa B.

"Madrone is the quintessential SF Bar with a multi-diverse crowd of super friendly people! From Security to the bartenders to the fabulous Prince and MJ DJ's to the insatiable crowd, it's like NEW YEARS EVE every party!" - GiGi M.

"We came. We drank. We danced. We laughed so hard we cried. We found the bathroom, waited ten minutes, and peed so we could comfortably laugh some more. We found the fan. We danced a lot more." - Danielle P.

"Madrone's MJ vs. Prince night was so fun, I didn't even mind the crowd. And with the minimal cover, reasonably priced and extensive drink selection, I can see why people pack themselves in!" - Jamie B.

"at first it was kind of annoying to stand outside, waiting.... they were doing 1 for 1 with people coming and going. but holy hell after going in and realizing how HOT it was (Michael Jackson theme, of course it was hot!) I appreciated that it wasnt ridiculously crowded - plus, there was perfect room to actually DANCE and not just do the head nod thing that you have to do in a crowded dance floor. " - Jodie B.

"Had a wonderful time here last Saturday with my best friend at the Prince vs. Michael party. Was quite chill earlier, then got packed. Great vibe. The staff was equally great... the owner even gave my friend and I a free drink. The clientele was very hip and smiling, and positive. My friend said that one of the girls there she was dancing with offered to get her a drink. That is totally unusual, a straight girl offering another straight girl who she didn't even know a drink! " - Samantha M.

"one of the most fun nights I have had here was a Michael Jackson vs Prince night. Even though I'm not a huge fan of either artist, its hard not to have a good time with a picture of someone's face glued to a stick." - Andrew P.

"Went for the first time last night for the Michael Jackson vs. Prince dance party and it was a blast!! Got pretty crowded but had fans blowing in the dance floor for cool air and never waited for a drink. Great neighborhood outing and perfect excuse to rock a Fedora!" - Stephani B.

"Always a good time. Good drinks easy to grab a cab or drive to. I was there last week for Prince vs. Michael and had a blast! " - Tara M.

"My kind of place includes Prince cut out face masks and Michael Jackson videos all night long in a setting that is equivalent to a saloon meets burning man." - Radi I.

"Prince v. Michael is the best dance party I've found thus far, and it doubles as church for me, and many others. A great lounge with art all over, old school couches and chairs for lounging, good bouncers, an industrial fan and cheap, quality beer on a Saturday night." - Jessica R.

"I had a pretty damn good time. The energy was excellent on Saturday night...people were smiling and laughing and having fun. Girls weren't being catty and dudes weren't groping. Nor did it take forever to get a drink. It *was* insanely crowded, and believe me, I am *not* touchy person, but after awhile, I kind of felt that there was a camaraderie to it. It was cozy in a sort of "March of the Penguins" huddling-for-warmth kind of way." - Karen F.
