Solidarity In The Air

After a late start, solidarity was clearly in the air (and by-the-by I could also feel it in me water) – with an early set name checking places under pressure in the Middle East and North Africa – followed by several All Queens sets with a nod to International Women's Day. Then later on one of our number joined the all woman DJ line-up at another hostelry – supported by a fair few of our regulars. The eclecticism continued unabated. We got Pop sets, we got an Industrial set, we got eclectic sets, we got a Post Punk Funk set. The whole spectrum was traversed from Kim Wilde and Boney M, through Microdisney and Vivien Goldman, to Neubauten, Throbbing Gristle and quite possibly featuring for I think the first time… Foetus. - Rich
