Week Review

Apologies for the lack of posts. I'll give you guys a brief run down of what you missed last week.

Tuesday night saw the start of Bluesday tuesday. A great new event at the OSMC, showcasing Blues groups. Dave Ferra entertained a few of you guys with his haunting unique style. A really talented guy who got you up on your feet with his more upbeat songs.

Wednesday night saw the first of the film nights put on by UKC film society, the audience were mainly students but if you love film you must come along to these monthly nights as the standard is always very high, in future though we will be putting on the music, as we are not entirely sure if we can cope with the extreme experimental style. Experimental is always good, but I'm not sure if we are willing to take it to those extremes yet.

Thursday night. Luke, as always put on a blinding show Presenting you guys with a great band, Two men & a tree. These guys were experimental in the good sense. A really interesting group, swaping instruments & doing something really interesting. Quite folky & quirky, sure to get better, just a shame that half of them are going to uni.

Friday night was great, sorry to turn so many of you guys away but you have to get in early at the weekend if you want to get in at all, especially when Syd Arthur are playing. If you haven't seen this group they are a blend of funky folk with Liam providing beautiful vocals over their always tight performance & with Mohanski supporting they really created a vibrant & exciting atmosphere. Mohanski were really innovative & played some great tunes, Friday night was great for eargasms.

Saturday saw the return of Jim Leverton & Geoffrey Richardson formerly of Caravan. What a great performance from two of Canterburys best loved musicians. With their stories of travels & concerts all over the world it was great for reminising & a really nice relaxed vibe as you all came out to see these great performers

Sunday with the Stacks of Wax collective was a really nice end to the week. Loads of people turned up to see these guys do their thing. Sundays are the new thursdays.

More reviews tomorrow. Love love

psycho comedy last night was great. I could do with a laugh after the mission I had trying to pay my council tax yesterday.
I went along to the office after my sister called me up to ask me to go & pay it, I had convieniently accidently on purpose forgotten about it. So I reluctantly dragged myself up there & was a little shocked to see that the whole place had changed & that I now had to get a little ticket to wait for ten minutes to be told that I couldn't pay it because it wasn't in my name. I'm boring myself now so I think I'll go & do something more useful

Monday here at last

Well it looks like we made it in the end. After all the blood sweat & tears we got there. The club looks great & I think we all feel a little better now the opening weekend has got out of the way.

Luke played fantastically well as always which was nice as it felt like things were back to normal, apparently he wrote us a special song but I missed most of it as I was skiving have a roll up down the fire escape.
Lovebucket were amazing on friday, they got the place absolutly alive with their blend of jazzy love.
Flipron... I don't really know what to say about these guys. Personally I think that they are the best band we've had here, they are so unique. It's hard to put them into a metaphorical musical box as they seem to have totally created their own genre. Spooky & very sexy. Check out their website (its on the links) as I am not very good at doing them justice.

Big thank you to every one that come along over the weekend & looked after us over the past month. See you soon I hope.

Tonight is psycho comedy, sadly a ticket only event, but it happens every month so if you wanna come to the next one get a ticket from the Marlowe
