Private 50th Party @ Luton Underground 12.10.2019

After recent great efforts to get involved with the new venue 'Luton Underground' (and failing miserably I might add) ironically, I find myself invited to host a friends private birthday party there. So, once again, the rain continues in Luton to the point I'm looking out for the bearded man in a boat to come sailing past. But luckily, the guests tonight aren't so fickle, and I'm presented with a lively bunch of good time seekers, all out to celebrate their friend and colleagues 50th birthday.

It's been a while since I last hosted such a celebration, and with the previous event being at the G2, as a first time at the venue, its a lot bigger than I'm used to, but with the stage lights glaring, we can see very little throughout the night at the audience anyway! So armed with plenty of requests, we set about to what turned out to be a very enjoyable night. A special thanks to Andy Chesham from Vinyl Revelation for passing over the invitation to host the night.

Frenzy 11.10.2019

Whilst we were getting ready to venture out into the rain, seems like the majority of guests were suffering from bad case of the 'maybes'. Nothing new there I guess, but it's such a shame when a little bit of rain puts people off a free night of great music! But as always, we march ahead because we know a good cause when we hear one, and armed with a great selection of new material, set about entertaining the best way we know how.

So yes, quiet was the way to go until, and ironically our guest DJ had to leave due to jet lag and come 12.30am, all of a sudden, we had a heaving pub, although we certainly had our share of the more 'interesting' of people throughout from the start Was also good to support those that had recent birthdays, plus Pete (Rat) whom was good enough to share his special night with us too. As previously mentioned, I was also dedicating the night to another good friend Drew, that sadly passed recently. This also gave me a great excuse to inflict Laibach and Chumbawamba on an unsuspecting audience.

So with plenty of cider consumed , songs sung louder than necessary, and the odd sporadic bouts of dancing - even from yours truly, we ensured maximum enjoyment with those good enough to support the night and listen to the new songs on offer throughout the night. Many thanks again to our guest DJ Uncle Filthy and the G2 staff.

I'm back for one last night of the alternative in 2019 for our 'Dead Ringers' event on Friday 8th November, so please make a special effort to support the night.

Night Of The Paper Hat 27.9.2019

Obviously somewhat of a different night again for us, but party favours were the theme of the night, and when two good friends have celebrations pretty much on the same night, it just has to happen! So thanks to Tina and Seamus for letting me exploit their yearly increment in what was a great and fun night, even if most of the music was very much on the cheesy side! Certainly great to see so many supporting the event, and keeping the dance floor busy for the majority of the night.

So, after the the recent Queen night, and my recent DJ flirting with the 50s & 60s, we'll be back in a mere two weeks time (11th October), for a night called Frenzy, for what is described as 'the thinking mans alternative night' for those that take their choice of music to the next level. We'll also be joined once again by guest DJ Uncle Filthy, so expect a very heavy night of full on goth, psyche, industrial etc, with plenty of new tunes thrown in for good measure.

Mike's 80th Birthday Bash @ The Leaside 13.9.2019

... and unfortunately, Friday The 13th did indeed strike. At the strike of 12pm, having simply risen to answer the door to the postman, my back decides that I no longer need to be pain-free and out slips my disc. Luckily, an afternoon of motionless, pain killers and the promise of vast amounts of alcohol gives me the desired motivation to continue my enthusiasm for tonight's proceedings. After all, its my Dads 80th birthday party, and after the hours I spent sorting out the music, I'm not missing this for the world!

So yes, another night performing a night of 40s, 50s & early 60s, but I pretty much grew up listening to most of this music, so its not like its a new to me, and there's no denying that the music brought back plenty of childhood memories throughout the night, and from the comments from the majority of my Dad's guests, looks like we hit the spot.

Only 30 minutes short from the allotted playing time before the last guest zimmered off, but with my back, I'd say I was probably the least healthy one there on the night! Still, I loved every minute of it and it was great to see my Dad in his element all night.

Queen - A Night Of Tribute 10.8.2019

As you can imagine, I'm not exactly what you'd call your quintessential Queen fan. In fact, I was asked twice to host this night before I finally accepted the challenge of hosting this night. And as skeptical as I was, once I started to listen to the albums again in preparation, I had to admit to knowing more songs that I expected, which is undoubtedly a repressed memory of when my older sister used to play them back in the day, and I even think I still l have a 7" copy of "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" up in my loft!

Weather wise, with the few days leading up to the event being totally barmy (especially for August)  it was a bit touch and go on the night, but by 7pm, the wind had died down, the rain dried up and the sun finally showed up, although I can't help feeling a lot of people probably stayed away just in case! Still, good to see the pub busy on entry, although as usual, it was the hardcore fans that made the night worthwhile, and we certainly had some fun moments throughout the night, so if you did put yourself down as 'interested' on the event page and didn't show up, you certainly missed a fun time.

So many thanks to all those that did support the night - your presence was greatly appreciated, and I can rest assured that I never have to listen to another Queen track again!

We'll be taking a break now but will be back at the end of September (27th) for a 'back to basics' alternative party, so stay well till then!

Vertigo / UK Decay (unofficial) Aftershow Party 19.7.2019

Once again, due to other ideas/commitments, I decided that this was to be the last alternative mix for a few months, and then with the sudden announcement of the mini UK Decay gig at the town hall, decided that a secondary set should be written in the hope that we pick up the slack from the gig. Plus this night also coincided with my 18th anniversary of DJing in Luton, although I decided not to advertise this time as I didn't fancy setting myself up for the standard disappointment! After a quick tot-up of events from the past, I also concluded that I've covered about 200 nights at The George II.

With the crap weather throughout the day, luckily myself and my DJ partner in crime, Uncle Filthy, played to a busy and friendly crowd for the best part of the night, and it was great to see so many people that haven't graced our doors for quite some time. I still managed to fit in quite a bit of my original set, but was very pleased to be able include some classics from the late 70s, rarely heard these days. I was also planning to take a few pics, but spent my free time busy catching up, so my cider addled brain will just have to try and remember the night on it's own!

So, thanks to all that supported, and came back to the pub after the gig, and hope we see you again on our next adventure into musical weirdsville - keep watching the skies!

The Obsolete Man 21.6.2019

I guess the interim choice of title for this event was pretty apt in the end, although when I mentioned that we'd be celebrating the summer solstice, I'd never envisioned that the an actual witches gathering would be the end result! Regardless, armed with material from all the current new releases, Ralph & I set about entertaining those that did venture out, although with Fridays being pretty dead in the town most weekends, it's such a tragedy that the alternative crowd aren't jumping on this opportunity to take back the pub and make it ours again.

With posts about bands not getting support, it does also happens quite often with DJ nights, of which are just as important with getting new music heard, and whilst you may look at the final play list and consider it may be limited, we always play to the audience, so ultimately, its up to you to change that if you want to experience a difference.

Ironically, I was informed towards the end of the night, that G2 was in fact the busiest pub on the night compared to other locals, and we also had some pleasant feedback which is always appreciated.

So moaning aside, a very big thanks to those that continue to support the arts (!) especially to our guest DJ Uncle Filthy, whom will be joining us again next month, where we hope to get in on the aftermath of the "People Power Passion/UK Decay performance" during our 'Vertigo' event.  Remember, word of mouth is the always the best form of advertising, so please help us spread the word before nothing becomes the norm.
