Ticket info: www.qtp.redpaint.info

We're a mini festival running on the 2nd bank holiday weekend in May. All our bands and performers share one thing: they're great. They happen to be loosely connected by not being particulary straight, some are even down-right out-and-out homs and dykes. Hey, it's just an excuse for some parties and perhaps a little pinky flirting.

There are 3 gigs, each costs a fiver. But there are a limited number of cute QtP badges for £10 each which will get the wearer into all 3 gigs. Just leave us a comment and we'll get in touch to tell you how you can get one. Or go to
