Purr
Bath

With everything we've been hearing about the live music revival and a continuing slump in music sales, Purr's takeover of a record shop certainly seems timely. The club moved to Fopp last month to continue a trick which has made it one of Bath's hottest nights out. This involves booking a bunch of hip young bucks on the cusp and wrapping them lovingly round cutting-edge indie, 1960s and TV themes, in this instance supplied by Purr DJs Gareth, Johnny Yen, Tim Purr and Dave Purr. Purr's Saturday residency continues tonight with Welsh speed-garage indie five-piece Innercity Pirates. Double-edged support comes from heavy-edged electro popsters Modernaire and Kerterver Cartzo whose name apparently means "knob rot" in postwar gay slang, Polari. And watch out for killer dancefloor shapes thrown by Purr's glam dancers The Panthergirls.
