Thread: URGENT HELP PLEASE! Need events recommendations in London this weekend!

Hello all!

I need all your help urgently! My lovely hubby and I have decided on an impromptu visit to London Town this weekend and need a burly night to go to this Saturday. There's going to be 7 of us in total. I've already looked at the Wam Bam Club at Soho Revue but it's fully booked, and we've considered Ive Paige's night at Volupte but the rest of our gang is on a bit of budget. La Clique is our back-up plan but we've already seen the show three times!!!

Any recommendations are VERY gratefully recieved!

HELP US!

10-11-2008 19:30

And The Devil May Drag You Under Presents...
Blow Up Metro, 19-23 Oxford Street, London,
Cost: £5

And The Devil May Drag You Under Presents: Jason Webley, Sxip Shirey and Desmond O’Connor Saturday 11th October, Blow Up Metro 19-23 Oxford Street (by Tottenham Court Road Station) 19:30-23:00

Jason Webley is taking a night off from a punishing touring schedule with Amanda Palmer (Dresden Dolls) to treat his London fans, old and new, to a night of feverish gypsy folk-punk delivered in his trademark gravelly baritone with boundless dark, infectious energy. With ten years and five albums worth of virtuoso experience behind him, Jason promises to bring the crowd to its knees whilst leaving it begging for more.

Meanwhile, real life circus composer Sxip Shirey will create ecstatic melodies, unimaginable sounds and deep sexy beats utilizing Industrial Flutes, Bullhorn Harmonica, Regurgitated Music Box, Triple Extended Pennywhistles, Miniature Hand Bell Choir, Human Beat Boxing, Obnoxiophone, Glass Bowls With Red Marbles, and a clutch of curious objects. Already beloved to Londoners as the driving force behind Luminescent Orchestrii, Sxip now steps out on his own with a solo set that promises to delight and thrill.

The evening will be presided over by Desmond O’Connor, an internationally renowned musical comedian whose bittersweet lyrics and insanely catchy melodies never fail to shock, charm and entertain. Desmond is one of the most exciting and original acts on the UK Burlesque and Variety scene and regular club and festival appearances in London, Dublin, Amsterdam and New York have earned him a far-reaching army of loyal fans while his work for MTV at Bestival and The Big Chill has furthered his growing status as a household name in the UK. The 11th October promises to be one of the most unlikely and unusual evenings of music, comedy and cabaret that the capital has ever seen. Three enormous personalities will fill the stage with music, laughter and passionate performance. Expect a night of unexpected thrills and unparalleled pleasures!

What James said!!!!!!!!

If you can't afford to do La Clique, a cheaper option would be festival of sins as entry is only £5 before 9.30.
