Noble Destiny

When it involves a dance party

By Aja Pecknold

Published on December 19, 2007

Spencer Moody sure knows how to spread some holiday cheer. From the giant illuminated nativity scene window display in his junk/home accoutrements shop the Anne Bonny to donating his lap as a red-headed Jolly Old St. Nick at the Cha Cha Christmas party (sporting his own beard), there’s no shortage of spirit. Tonight he continues, contributing his crate of gems to Noble Destiny, a “Holiday Dance Party” as DJ Fat Buddy Holly. Moody, whose live performances as a musician tend to lean towards the noise, rock and sometimes screaming variety, won’t get into specifics, but promises that tonight, “Everyone who comes will hear their very favorite music. And that’s a guarantee. It’s not a money back guarantee, but it’s a guarantee.” Between he, local favorite Sam Rousso Soundsystem (of the popular, recently-defunct club night Ruff Gemz), Kendra is Magic of Dreamburger and NYC-based Rezound, it’s a guarantee that will likely be made good.
