And more rock'n'roll is coming your way in Norwich...
THE HOOPS take to the stage for the first time in 2012 with their brand of musical stylings soon to be coined as Gimp Rock... think 60's garage filtered through Billy Childish, an extra dash of ineptitude, and the twisted mind of one Sean Campbell...
Hear the whole HOOPS EP here: http://soundcloud.com/the-hoops
And SAVAGE ISLAND return for their second one-time only gig... fans of legendary Yarmouth drunks BEAST WITH A GUN will not want to miss it as a similarly flavoured helping of garage punk raunch and sleazy rock'n'roll will be dished forth!
The evening's entertainment and refreshments will also include:
* Buffet (2 star)
* Meat Raffle
* Weather Reports (hourly)
* Prize for clammiest mott
2 bands 2 pounds. 8pm on!
That's at Olive's Cafe Bar on Elm Hill, Friday 2nd of March!

Okay, things are getting rolling again...
New venue in Norwich that we'll probably doing some more nights in at the cellar bar in the Take 5... put on a great gig there with the Random Rummies a couple weeks ago. The Rummies are on bill for the next event by Norwich's coolest "big" promoter, the Bo Nanafana Social Club, at The Talk in Norwich. Voodoo themed stuff going on there, should be good. http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=153096591384432
And for the next Murder Slim night, we've got the Lot Lizards from London back up here again. They recorded a session in Norwich the day after their last gig here, which they've since released as an album. It's well worth picking up. Their style is trash-art garage punk, for those of you who didn't catch them last time. Jukebox Jonah & the Random Rummies will be headlining and giving it all there is to give....
Opening the proeedings will be Sir Pigmeat Johnson's One Man Band... definitely get down early to catch this, it's a lot like Beast with a Gun but twice as raw.
