NO WOW 4th Birthday Party - Head of Steam - Sat 27th Apr

No Wow 4th Birthday
Saturday 27th April 11pm-3am, free.
Head of Steam
(Official Warm Up at the Dog & Parrot from 8pm)

We are 4! Somehow. It's been 4 years since we decided to throw a 'one off' party in the back room of Ernest and well here we are. So let's have a party to celebrate. We'll blow up some balloons and that. Probably no cake though, might make a mess. We've had some really amazing nights and we are properly thankful for all of your support over the past 4 years. Here's to some amount of years more! 

After a less than ideal start to the night in March where we battled with sound issues (cheers to everyone who tried to help and all of you who stuck around while we sorted it) all was well that ended well and it was another great night with a packed dancefloor. And so we head in to April, a quarter of the year down already and into the Spring/Summer season!

It's free in, there's drinks deals (3 cans of Red Stripe for £10 and selected doubles/mixers for £3.50) and there's the usual class No Wow tunes.

The warm up at the Dog & Parrot has kicked off in some style too. Each month we will take over the upstairs bar/terrace with a No Wow playlist we've specially curated (which sounded class) and there's drinks deals on Becks and trebles available from the downstairs bar. It's the perfect place to kick the evening off.

Then on to the main event. The Head of Steam basement has plenty of seats at the back and loads of dancing room in front of the decks and on the Head of Steam stage, full on underground party craic.

No gimmicks, no door charge, just us playing music we love to a full house, a dead canny atmosphere and lots of dancing through til 3am.

We are always canny busy, so as we always advise get down as early as you can to ensure your place on the dancefloor.

What we love and play covers sixties surf pop to new wave, rock & roll to hardcore punk, goth to garage rock - and everything else in between.
