Hi Everyone!

Just a quickie to let you know that Hello Thor are putting on a gig tomorrow night at The Chameleon with Over The Wall, Three Blind Wolves & We Show Up On Radar all playing LIVE for just £3. Plus there will be HT DJs and lots of pre-friday-off-work fun to be had!

p.p.s. Here's a fun game: 3D Pong: http://www.newsandentertainment.com/zFcurveball.html

Good gig tonight

I've been so busy I've not had time to think about what gigs are coming up. Or to shout about them. I'm definitely going to this though. SHOULD BE A BELTER!



It's tonight @ The Chameleon and will feature dreamy anthemic indie-pop, synth fun n' games and tweecore treats

Hello

There's (at least) 2 brilliant things happening this weekend...

1. There's a big charity fundraising party thing (or Arts and Fashion exhibition as I believe the organisers are referring to it!) happening at Lizard Lounge this Friday. For more info check out Leftlion and/or Facebook

2. Me and Tom and Nick are putting on a free gig at Broadway on Saturday.
It's going to be full of 303-busting beats and electronic mayhem. Line, Battlecat! and Yunioshi are playing and there's going to tons of free popcorn for everyone.



Both should be ace.
Hope you can make it

Supernight presents... Cuban Crimewave, Scutty Neighbours & Yes My Ninjas?

Junktion 7, Friday 23rd November, 8:30pm till late

So friends, the days are getting shorter, the nights are drawing in, it's starting to get really very cold, the shops are getting busier...but fear not, Supernight has exactly the dose of electric spazzrock treatment to grab those winter blues by the neck and to shout very loudly in their faces.

Join us at Junktion 7 on Friday 23rd November to see some of the dirtiest, noisiest, most riotously entertaining oiks we could round-up do what they do best - have a blinding rock & roll party. Yes, for just £3 you can savour the following filthy treats:


CUBAN CRIMEWAVE
Party-stomping twin bass slinging satanic cinemascope movie soundtracks for 1920's Cuban gangs. Think Death From Above 1979, think The Stooges, think howls, growls and raw, rumbling scuzzrock at its finest.
www.myspace.com/cubancrimewave


SCUTTY NEIGHBOURS
A filthy cocktail of punk, metal and cider, this Skull Tanker side-project are "a ragtag bunch of misfits, miscreants and diseases" hell bent on having the noisiest, scuttiest, most riotously enjoyable party in the neighbourhood.
http://www.myspace.com/thescuttyneighbours


YES MY NINJAS?
Sonic mentalists from Lincolnshire cramming genre upon genre to create music that is both insanely catchy and, well, insane. Electro-pop, metal, hardcore, d'n'b...it'll make your head hurt, in a good way.

All this PLUS projections from the talented Dan Toporowski, who also designed our poster. Go to www.myspace.com/supernight to see it.

See you down the front.

Thanks for making Supernight great!

Hello there,

This is a big fat THANKS to everyone who came to Supernight on Saturday!

And also to the lovely Oxjam people, the wonderful bands who performed, the delightful Kate Musgrove who did projections, my sister Katie who made a really nice cake, the fantastic Tether group with their art tombola prizes and The Maze for having us!

So... hope you had a good time? We did! We'll be putting some photos online soon and I'll post the link up here for you.

Some of my favourite moments included:

- Most of Fists set but especially the little ghost tune (little gho-o-o-o-o-o-st!)
- Lovely Joe working the tombola like a demon
- Seeing the proud winner of a beautiful yellow woolly hat and orange necklace modelling his prize... yellow is really Ned's colour...
- Enjoying the slightly surreal experience of walking out the back door of the Maze and realising there was a team of Maze staff completely rebuilding the back half of the club!
- Watching Napoleon IIIrd - that was the first time I've seen him and I thought he was amazing - Raising money for Oxfam (I don't know how much, you can't get the lids off those rattly tins, but thanks to everyone who donated anything!)

Last but not least, my absolute favourite thing:

- Taking home my most random souvenir ever from a night out... a golf club.

Anyway, it's Monday now, work time, so I'd better get on with some!

Love Becky

p.s. if the nice man who really would've liked a Jarvis Cocker badge (rather than a rubbish Kaiser Chiefs one) is reading this, drop me an email, I saved one for you.

Supernight OXJAM do - 27th October - Save up your pennies!

After a roaring success last year which saw Supernight raise over £700 for Oxfam as part of the Oxjam festival, we're back with a cracking line-up for our Oxjam 07 gig on the 27th October at The Maze (what a brilliant venue, right?)

As well as 3 fantastic live performances (details below) We're also thinking up myriad ways to shake the spare change loose from your pockets in the name of a good cause.

Prepare to eat yummy homemade cake, to swap £1 for badges created by musical luminaries such as Jarvis Cocker and to take part in our Oxfam raffle, with fabulous prizes carefully sourced from Oxfam shops round the city.

Playing live:

NAPOLEON IIIrd (Brainlove Records) www.myspace.com/boney3

Brilliant one-man band embracing all of Brian Wilson's maverick genius, but with a battered reel-to-reel tape machine and some wonky kids' instruments instead of 4 fellas and a state of the art studio.

BALOR KNIGHTS (Thee SPC) www.myspace.com/balorknights

Creators of gloriously messy indie rock that staggers and weaves everywhere from Pixies to Bearsuit and has earned them a legion of fans including 6Music and Rough Trade.

FISTS www.myspace.com/fistsmusic

You never quite know what to expect with this anti-folk rocktopus, from ramshackle marching drum Casiotone workouts to catchy lo-fi pop.

Come and dance and sing and have a good time and feel like a good person because you're doing it all for charity (and kicks).

p.s. bring along your favourite charity shop tunes and we'll play them!

September ROCKS!

Hi-de-hi!

September is an awesome month.

It began with my 30th birthday (which was a real doozy, I can tell you!)
and it's going to end like this...

FRIDAY 28th SEPTEMBER @ The Maze, Mansfield Road

SJ ESAU (Anticon)
His biog reads like a pack of lies - freestyled with Massive Attack, won DMC Rap Battles aged 12, duetted with Lou Barlow... but releases on both Twisted Nerve and now Anticon would seem to back up such outlandish claims.
What is undeniably true is that Sam makes wonderful, warped folk akin to Beck, Animal Collective and Why?
We've been trying to book this guy for ages and we finally got him!

MONSTER BOBBY (Hypnote)
Signed to New York's Hypnote, Bobby writes home-spun romantic tales for the shy indie kid in all of us.
These lo-fi solo recordings are a million miles away from his work with the Pipettes, the all-girl indie pop sensations he is credited with having masterminded. Look out there's a monster coming!

DOKTOR COCACOLAMCDONALDS
The good Doktor heads to Supernight from Derby via Dublin and the Edinburgh Festival.
He has recently been spotted singing in his pants on Jimmy Carr's DVD, popping up on BBC 3, penning ballads for Gene Hackman and abusing innocent bystanders with a battered Casio keyboard.

PLUS we'll have an exclusive set from special guest DJs Midlands Dance Club

All for £4!!!

Supernight is back from its summer hols with a bang!
