Hi all, Just in case anyone doesn't know already the next Offbeat on Friday 3rd October is a promo night for the new B&S album; there'll be a free picture raffle (i.e. tickets will have marginally-B&S-related pictures on them such as horses, pasties, tigers, mayflys etc), and the winners will get all sorts of DCW promo goodies - CD's, posters, videos, aprons (!?) And we'll be playing a few tracks off the album too of course. However the main reason for posting this is to advise anyone coming, especially if you are trekking from afar, to get there early and queue up - the first Offbeat of term sold out much more rapidly than we expected, and with such goodies up for grabs and it being the Friday of the first week proper of term, we're expecting this one to be even busier. It could well be that if you're not in the queue before the doors open you won't get in next week. Having to turn people away is the most horrible thing about running the night, and we'd at least like to avoid having to turn away deserving cases if possible... :-(( Chris * Offbeat * an indiepoppunk night Friday 3rd October, 9pm to 1am @ The Raynor Lounge, Sheffield University SU, Glossop Rd, Sheffield admission £3.00 on the door includes free lollipops & stickers playing classic leftfield indie, pop-punk, C86, new indiepop underground and lo-fi sounds from the likes of ...
