Fri 23rd May Offline: Radio Luxembourg/Danny Fontaine & Horns of Fury- FREE!

I'll be posting up some pics later. The dancefloor was absolutely bonkers and Nipsla did a grand job of serving up top tunes for the tremendously tipsy.

(Thanks to citydreams and sarahluv too).

shame i had to bail out early. damn the P4!

At one point, half the people on the dancefloor were rolling about on the deck. Very odd.

Well that was fun!

A question ... I know most people enjoy 'nights out' but I end up being too tired and going home before all the good stuff starts. Guess I'm just in the habit of early to bed/early to rise and all that.

Is there a reason why the main acts are on so late, or is it just 'what works' for the regular crowd? Just curious.

They're not on late. They're on at the right time for a Friday Albert crowd night.

The headline band goes on first because people are still sober enough to appreciate them and the second band provides the knees up, moshpit action.

It's a whole heap of fun that costs the punters nothing.

That's what I expected... was just curious, that's all. My fault for not being into late nights

By the way, there's four tunes from Radio Luxembourg on their MySpace site. They somehow sound even better after seeing the band.
They're a great band.

I'm going to pull out all the stops to get Radio Luxembourg back to an Offline venue soon. They were one of the best acts I've ever put on, and lovely blokes too.

And they sang some songs in Welsh!

Fantastic stuff.

A sign of ageing that Mrs Bob looked at them and said 'aren't they sweet?'!
