Saturday 22nd April

The Dublin Castle

Unknown Pleasures + Radio Generation + Dollie Demi + DJs We Got Killers

Unknown Pleasures- ‘Ian Curtis’ has adapted the trademark moves a tad since he ahem died and is maybe slightly more padded than you recall, and Peter Hook seems to have transmogrified into a goff Yul Bryner etc etc but don’t watch that….a brilliant and lovestruck tribute to Joy Division. Radio Generation– our good friend Lord Numb in a new new wave, post punk and punk rock conceptualizing tribute scenario Dollie Demi- Exciting new talent outta Manc, like a Northern punker Lilly Allen maybe. New EP ‘Boys Suck’ is due out this month. DJs We Got Killers spin the plates that are greats from indie, punk, soul, reggae, electro and more. Click Here For Cheap Tickets…
