Couple of things going on this weekend, with twice the amount of time to be hung over! Spandecks Easter Rock Spectacular on Thursday night at Charlies (£3 before 11, £4 after.. Cheap night!), then on Saturday Feel The Noise takes a brief sabbatical from Common to bring you a 'bonus disco special' at Joshua Brooks. Free before 11. Boo yaa!

A big thanks to everyone that made it down to London for my birthday last weekend. Memory's blurry, but I think everyone had a good time. Apparently we smashed the record for takings at the bar! Photos are now up, just click on Keiran's dome-piece. Also check the pics on theLondon page for Ches' perspective.. - Tom

22nd February 2007
Checked the London page recently? After a LONG hiatus it looks like they're posting updates again. Percy may be getting a little over exposed though! And extra props to the Sydney chapter for being the tidiest with their home page. Very neat boys!

In 2000, Garry Woodward and Danny McCourt changed the face of British independent cinema forever with the avant garde masterpiece Barry and Julie. Now, through the magic of Youtube, this seminal work can once again be appreciated by the general public.

PARTY SEASON STARTS HERE
15th December 2006
It seems to have rolled around pretty fast, but it's Contort Yourself again this Saturday, so head down to the Road House for some festive dance-offs. Or if you know Mot and Rach, give 'em a bell to find out the scoop on their party..
Weakbeers
8th December 2006
Okay, so updates are few and far between at the moment, I guess it's the time of year, we're all hibernating (this isn't London, with Puma parties and Gonz art shows every night of the week!). But Party season is just around the corner, so hopefully things will liven up a little soon!
Sounds like a bunch of people will be heading out to Lamars tonight for Izzy's birthday, so head down there and wish her many happy returns if you know her! On the news front, original streetbeer boy about town, and the man with "the most powerful grill in the game" (according to Stu Bentley), Ben Morley is back in Manchester for a festive visit, with his lovely wife Karen in tow. If you see him, watch out for his new Aussie accent!

Fuck art parties - how about WWF Wrestling?? You won't find shit like this on the London page, that's for sure. Wait, maybe it was a crazy ironic installation piece...

Meatbeers
14th November 2006
Anyone up for meat and beers? The Christmas markets are up again from Thursday. The one outside the Town Hall has bars, food stalls, all sorts of shit.. The best reason for hanging out in Albert Square since they put cobbles round ol' Gladstone!

Manchester Streetbeers
9th October 2006
Well, we finally got our own streetbeers page - no longer do we have to mix with the Londoners, which was frankly just bringing us down. Where they report on art parties, pro skateboarders and haircuts, we're gonna aim for fights, drunk and disordarly behaviour and name calling. Brap!
