We’ll raise some money for a new boiler by raising the roof on the cinema. Not to be missed!'
Get your glad rags on and come on down for night of wows. Tickets: £15 / £12

The Astounding Grundy Brothers
‘The Astounding Grundy Brothers will run up and tweak the nose of danger as they continue on their journey bringing chaos to the world, and they haven’t even told their mum what time they will be home’.
Captain Fairy Buckfast (Paul ‘BUCKY’ Taylor)
‘Sometimes it goes right, sometimes it goes wrong, but you'd never notice the difference’.

The Hoakers
‘A usually derogatory term from Northern Ireland... A hoaker is someone who roots around in a place where they shouldn’t be; rummaging, e.g. under someone’s bed, in someone’s bag or bins etc.’
That just about sums the band up. After Hoaking around the local punk scene for forty plus years The Hoakers managed to procure the winning formula. Bouncing, energetic, tight as the proverbial and more relevant than the irrelevant The Hoakers hit the mark with punk rock style and aplomb.
