Beats For Bowel Cancer

Friday 12th March at the One Eyed Dog sees a fundraiser for the charity Beating Bowel Cancer featuring DJs Gentle Bren, Tom Alex, Lucky Darren and Bill Eff. Entrance is only £1 and collection tins will be circulating all night to help raise important funds for the charity, plus all money raised will be matched by a donation from Barclays too. The night’s “fundraving” is is organised by Cass Gowing:

“On 1st December 2009, I lost my father to bowel cancer, just 6months after he was diagnosed. He was 51years old. I have decided to begin fundraising, because; if I save just one family from going through this then my job is done. This is all for dad.

Thank you for your support.”

Wolfman Vs Dracula Halloween Special

Once a year a band arise from the dead to rock the night of all Hallows eve. This band of tortured souls are beyond mortal and have walked a dark and twisted path encountering werewolves, vampires, zombies and devils along the way. Their songs tell of their journey of damnation and lament for lost loves, murdered wives and salvation. The band are ‘Wolfman vs. Dracula’ and for one night only they are here to rock you all the way to the gates of hell!

Spawned from satanic waste and left to fester in Professor Deathgob’s petri dish, Black Moranis clawed its way from the sludge to become the greatest novelty Halloween rock band of all time. Witness devil music to corrupt your soul and melt your mind. Slugs and snails and puppy dogs’ tails: this is what Black Moranis are made of.
