FENTON BOOGIE

18/06/2024

TONIGHT...

The featured artists this week for FENTON BOOGIE Open-mic/jam will be THE DAISYMEN, an old-school punk band (see the vid below).

Anyone want to be a featured artist/band, etc in the next couple of months?

Featured artists get a 30 min headline spot whenever possible (with their links used to promote it), and we usually end with a jam (sometimes with jams earlier too). Any prospective headliners wanna put themselves forward for any upcoming Tuesday before mid-August except June 18th, July 23rd? Send us a link (not Spotify or iTunes).

If you just wanna do a few tunes or short stand-up routine etc., just turn up and put your name down (you can join in the jams too); you might not wanna leave it too late though...we kick off around 8pm (an hour earlier than we used to, and we finish an hour later than the pre-pandemic days at 1am).

Full back-line/P.A.: bass, electric guitar, combo amps, drum kit supplied.

The Fenton is directly in front of Leeds Uni's big new Nexus Building, opposite the big rusty tower block.

Please bare in mind, covid isn't completely gone yet, despite things looking very much brighter. I'm not gonna lay down a bunch of rules about it, but I ask you to try to behave responsibly in that regard, and I warn you, we will not provide a platform for any conspiracy-theorist garbage.

Do I know anyone in Leeds who can replace a bulb in a Technics 1210 MK2 pop-up light?

TONIGHT...

The featured artists this week for FENTON BOOGIE Open-mic/jam will be THE BEER SNOBS, an indie band influenced by old school punk, poetry, life in Leeds, and of course beer. Their lyrics are often expressed in humour and gritty realism (check them out in the vid below). Thanks again to HER ORANGE COAT for her lovely set last week, and for standing in as host. BEA will be standing in this week.

We're not placing restrictions, but please don't come if you have covid or some undiagnosed viral symptoms...thanks 😉

Anyone want to be a future featured artist/band, etc?

This will be her second time featuring for us (you can check out one of her tunes via the YouTube link below). Looks like we've got no MC hosting tomorrow so far...any musician's interested in doing it? It'd involve some lifting/carrying and setting up/packing away, but you'd get some cash in hand and a few free drinks.
