The Outside Table
You do your best listening from just outside the room.
Designed rarity: about 5% of takers
Half of your night tends to happen by the door, on the stairs, at the table where people cycle through. You know everyone, you introduce everyone, and the reason you came out is often sitting on those steps rather than standing on the floor. Rooms are better when you are in them, and people mean it when they say so. You are the connective thread of a scene, the person who turns strangers into regulars.
You arrive, find your spot near the entrance or the outside table, and the night comes to you. You drift onto the floor when a friend pulls you in or a record you love comes on, then drift back out to catch up with whoever just arrived. By the end of the night you have usually met five new people and introduced three of them to each other.
