SLAMPT NIGHT
RIOTSNOTDIETS #3
To keep you warm in deepest winter, we're gonna do a Slampt celebration with FILM and MUSIC, with Pete Dale in the flesh and plenty of mulled cider.
Slampt are true RND heroes, channelling an uncompromising DIY / anti-corporate ethos stoically throughout their amazing existence. They hosted all-day punk events, put out painstakingly carefully put together records, and generally promoted all avenues of UK Riot Grrrl at no personal gain to themselves and for the greater good of all those who came into contact with them.
First off, at 7pm sharp, will be only the second ever screening of the super rare Film Documentary/Videozine, SLAMPTUMENTARY. It's a lighthearted 50min expose of what happened at Slampt, and features shocking Kenickie revelations! :O
after this, and when we've stacked all the chairs up in the correct fashion, we can have a dance. To supply all necessary beats, we have PLAYING LIVE:
MILKY WIMPSHAKE-
the pre-eminant Slampt band, and enjoying a little renaissance on the back of the amazing Indietracks performances and a new lease of life on Fortuna Pop records.
the wimpyshakers haven't played in Brighton for yonks, and will hit the south coast for a one-off show on terrific form. Led by Pete Dale, co-founder of Slampt, Milky Wimpshake play twee-punk-politico-action skiffle. and are the greatest thing ever. listen to them here....

HUMOUSEXUAL-
humousexual are a two-piece london outfit, the bastard offspring of Slampt and Lungleg. Comprising Boitel and Victor (boitel is coming over especially for this show from berlin). They make uncompromisingly pro-vegan, pro-tea, pro-sittingdown punk rock. signed to Everard records and beloved of everyone from SE15 to Manchester. They hardly ever play, even less so in Brighton, and are the finest queer indiepop duo of all time, dont miss.
you can listen to everything they've ever done here...

WOOLF-
veterans of Riots Not Diets#1, Woolf are channeling the slampt spirit through re-purposed women's missions and old folk tales.
Think Octavia E Butler fronting the Shaggs after 3 months living in a squat with Nadine Dorries.
Listen to colly,irene,sophie and georgia here...

.....there's one more tbc, watch this space.
as usual, there will be a vast array of DIY gubbins to buy at the show, it's at the West Hill Hall, a beautiful community space/scouthut, beloved of all those who visit.
The show will finish by 1030pm, so all London-based Slampty-bobbins can catch the last train home, which is roughly at 1130pm. so you could even help tidy up in the intervening hour. rock on.

OCTOBER 29TH, LE TIGRE THEMED HALLOWEEN PARTY
LE TIGRE HALLOWEEN PARTY, W/ SKINNY GIRL DIET AND COVERGIRL AND CANDY PANIC ATTACK
WEST HILL HALL, BRIGHTON, 29/10/2011
RIOTSNOTDIETS #2, (first one was the fabulous stains screening in march...)
++inaugural earlybed clubnight, startling array of riot grrl, teen-c, fierceness, kittenXcore etc +++
(R/N/D'S HALLOWEEN BASH)
First screening outside of London of the much-hyped Le Tigre documentary film, following the band on their This Island tour...
"WHO TOOK THE BOMP? LE TIGRE ON TOUR follows iconic feminist electronic band Le Tigre on their 2004-2005 international tour across four continents and through ten countries. Supported by a community of devoted fans and led by outspoken Riot Grrrl pioneer Kathleen Hanna (Bikini Kill), Le Tigre confronts sexism and homophobia in the music industry while tearing up the stage via performance art poetics, no-holds-barred lyrics, punk rock ethos, and whip-smart wit in this edgy and entertaining documentary. Directed by Kerthy Fix (STRANGE POWERS: STEPHIN MERRITT AND THE MAGNETIC FIELDS), WHO TOOK THE BOMP? LE TIGRE ON TOUR features never before seen live performances, archival interviews, and revealing backstage footage with these trail-blazing artists. "
Film will be followed by live music:
COVERGIRL: a vast, all conquering queer beast. Thought to have eaten members of TRASH KIT, WETDOG and PEEPHOLES. The sounds emanating from hir digestive tract form the missing link between Huggy Bear and TRIBE 8. The next big thing. Listen here:

SKINNY GIRL DIET: Soon to be pre-eminant, teeny-bopper London grrls get a night off from GCSE coursework for a weekend show by the sea. think L7/Ut/Skinned Teen/generalised Slampt-ery
listen to them here....

CANDY PANIC ATTACK: fiercesome queertet chanelling bis, ste mccabe, bratmobile and general sugar-induced headache syndrome. really bloody great outfit and criminally overlooked by the glucose-paranoid teen-c scenesters
listen, yeah?
