Ahoy there Cap’n! Bit slow off the mark with this one in that the ship has already left its dock, but the new season of Rotten Hill Revue is under way (full listing below).
Actually we kicked off in style on November 13 with the Dirty Strangers and John Sinclair (am I allowed to prefix that with “The Legendary”? I think I am), who intoned his poetry over both bands. If that night is anything to go by we’re in for a good season and I really ought to try to get individual flyers out for each night. The theme this time is 10s, 20s and 30s travel.
In a rather lovely irony (although strictly by the definition of the Alanis Morissette Little Book of Irony), on December 18 we have Space Ritual playing, the band led by former (and founder) Hawkind member Nick Turner and comprising other Hawkind members.
Considering the interest in Hawkwind that my previous posts on the subject generated, I’m rather looking forward to them being on the same bill as us, not least because that means they’ll be on the same bill as Mick, so they can ask him directly whether their explorations into space rock influenced punk.
The final night of this run is New Year’s Eve, from 8pm till 6am, featuring a whole host of bands an DJs. The theme of that night is The Titanic, so come dressed for the Captain’s dinner.
