about 24 Hour Party People
'24 Hour Party People' is
a night devised by DJs Bill E & Cling. Since Cling jetted off to Melbourne in September 2004, Bill has been running things solo.
Sure, we stole the title off the song, the book
& the movie, but all of those three should give you some idea of
what to expect musically. It is not, however, a strictly Factory records
night (tho' that might be an excellent idea), rather a celebration of
alternative pop music from the mid-80s on, through Madchester &
baggy, Britpop etc, right up to today's indie.
It's probably easier to
list some bands to give you some idea of what you'll be hearing, so
here you go:
STONE ROSES, SMITHS, HAPPY
MONDAYS, PULP, BLUR, PIXIES, SUEDE, NEW ORDER, LIBERTINES, ARCTIC MONKEYS
808 STATE, THE CHARLATANS, CURE, JAMES, PWEI, INSPIRAL CARPETS, FLOWERED
UP, RIDE, OASIS, PRIMAL SCREAM, THE LA'S, KAISER CHIEFS, BLOC PARTY
SUPERGRASS, WEDDING PRESENT, A GUY CALLED GERALD, THE FARM,
JOY DIVISION, ST ETIENNE, WONDER STUFF, MY BLOODY
VALENTINE, KLF, MANICS, BELLE & SEBASTIAN AND MANY
MORE...
Hopefully that list will
whet your appetite. Check the

of a recent gig, or better yet, come along & find out for yourself!
