11/01/2019 - Friday Night Social! with BC All Skas + DJsAfter the postponement of Pama International's performance we were left with 2 options for what to do this Friday: Close the doors, and cancel the whole thing, or throw them open and find someone else to entertain us... We chose the latter!
So we bring you our Friday Night Social! Top quality live music from the brilliant BC All Skas who have had The Lost ARC moving in the past with their old skool ska and reggae tunes, plus DJ sets from Les Earthdoctor and Lenny Len who have loads of Funk, Soul, Afro, Reggae, Dub and more to keep your feet moving!
We'll have the usual full bar and good company so come down and join us to catch up with friends after Christmas and New Year and shake a leg to dance off the winter blues!
Only £3 on the door, and FREE if you held a ticket for the postponed Pama International show.
