Minced Pies and Hungry Eyes

Following on from Pauls post here are my rag tag photos from the Bored & Strong Island party last Wednesday. Big thanks again to everyone who came down. We’ll do something that doesn’t fall on a school night next time. Saying that, it didn’t seem to stop people sinking more than their fair share of booze.

We need your Top Ten METAL selections

With The Strong Island X Bored Christmas Moustache & Metal Bash approaching fast we need your help to gather some classic METAL. Gentle Bren is in the middle of his University Graphic Design Dissertation, and to help take the edge off and also so you can have your own input, we are asking for your Top Ten METAL tunes.

Either drop them to me, Paul, Bren, whoever, or email them to tristan@strong-island.co.uk and Bren will make a playlist for the night. The night being next Wednesday December the 2nd. Get involved and make sure you book Thursday off work.

EDIT: Or add your suggestions as comments!

EDIT: And I’ll legally download them!

Strong Island X Bored Christmas Moustache & Metal Bash

To celebrate the festive season and Strong Islands 1st Birthday we’ve teamed up once again with our favourite skatestore Bored to bring you some midweek fun and entertainment. This time in the shape of a Moustache and Metal Bash at The Little Johnny Russells on Albert Road. Gentle Bren will be taking it back to his younger days with some Metal mixed with a Disco touch. Backing Brendan with DJ support will be Paul Gonella, Toby Taylor, Jay Pateman, Julian Brett & Daniel Emo. We’ve no idea what they will play and have left it totally open. Be warned…

There will be a limited supply of FREE Moustaches on the night and hopefully some Brandy & Christmas Cake too. So, get involved in the kick start to the Christmas Holidays and either grow one, shave one, draw one or stick one on to show your love with some top lip action.

Big thanks to the Johnny Russells boys for letting us have the pub. Oh yeah, book Thursday off work. What better way to use that remaining holiday than nursing a spectacular hangover.

As always, thanks for all the support over the last year and we look forward to putting on more events and working with friends new and old in the new year.
