It's going to be a big festive night of fun with the incredible ska with THE DISPLAY TEAM, plus special guests to be announced and a crew of ho-ho-ho DJs onboard, original videos, street photo slideshows and more.

LIVE ONSTAGE:

THE DISPLAY TEAM



A beast with 24 limbs, and 6 brains fused into a sympathetic matrix of heady harmonies, ballistic brass, romping-stomping riffs and more 'wonk' than a bad hedge.
"rock, punk & funk to jazz, reggae and & circus ska with bizarre off the wall vocals & crazy brass melodies"
"On record, the band are an entertaining and vicious bunch, crunching out their brass-fuelled, heavy rock with ease, but in a live environment, they take that sound and transform it into a flurry of twisted stop-start, brackish chaos"

MULTIMEDIA
Original photos, old footage, pop 45 sleeves, and more.

PLUS A SPINNING PLATTER OF DJS!

We'll also have a full crew of hard-drinking Offline regulars throwing down a top selection of tunes, including:

EDITOR (urban75)

NIPSLA (Falling over studios)
Packing more pop than a Rice Krispies factory, Nipsla's DJ bag is a veritable jumble sale of joy, overflowing with indie, dance, electro and party tunes.

LANG & LOPEZ (The Actionettes)
A veritable platter splatter of 50s, 60s, Motown and more vital tunes from the Actionettes' very own Glamour Queens of Vintage Vinyl.

BARON BOBBY BAUHAUS (charcoal soul) More mysterious than Robert Smith's eyeliner bag, Bobby gets dancefloors rocking with quirky, darkside indie-pop and kohl-smudging breakbeats.

Another top night of fantastic live bands, an unmissable Woody Guthrie music show, great comedy, underground no-budget independent film screenings, cabaret, top notch DJs and surprises: and it's all for FREE!

LIVE!
ON THE FIRST FLOOR: an evening of film, cabaret and live music (bands to be announced)

WILL KAUFMAN: WOODY GUTHRIE- a music tour
[STARTS 8.30PM]

ALL YOU JIM CROW FASCISTS! WOODY GUTHRIE'S FREEDOM SONGS
The show explores Guthrie's anti-racist songs and activism - the legacy of his own personal transformation from a casual Oklahoma racist to a committed civil rights activist working and singing with the likes of Lead Belly, Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee and Paul Robeson.

A brilliantly entertaining and informative musical 'tour' around Woody Guthrie's work, Will's performance mixes live performance, sparkling humour and excellent musicianship. Discover why Guthrie's work is as relevant and hard-hitting now as it was for America in the Depression in this superb show.

The presentation begins with archive photos as Will plays slide guitar and the rest of the show is Will singing Guthrie's songs, using guitar, banjo and fiddle. It's funny, educational, and has rightly picked up rave reviews - don't miss it!

"Will Kaufman's skills as a musician, his infectious personality and his genuine commitment to the works of Woody Guthrie make this one of the most powerful presentations on the Depression and New Deal period that I have had the pleasure to have seen." Liverpool John Moores University

"No one can understand the American people without listening to Woody Guthrie. Will Kaufman's doing important work here." Tom Paxton
Times feature

THE SARAH MICHELLES
Astonishingly - some may say suspiciously - brilliant new band described as 'the bastard son of Weezer,' serving up what they call 'super smutty guitar pop.' It's rare that we get blown away by anything on MySpace, but their melody-rich, Teenage Fanclub-esque, guitar driven tunes immediately earned them a space on the bill and we strongly recommend you check them out.

FLIXATION 10pm
Get on the top floor with FLIXATION for no-budget underground cinema, video mashup, digital craft, amateur film Art, performance and music. Featuring the international premiere of a new performance by infamous Duncan Reekie (Exploding Cinema).
