The Brudenell Social Club

You can read the latest Brudenell meeting minutes here, and it may be worth noting that our fundraising progress bar (on the right-hand side of this page) has been updated and is now at £1687 - past the 10% mark. There is still a long way to go, but we have lots of ideas and we are hoping that the forthcoming fundraising gigs, the merchandise and the support of local residents, bands and promoters will help us along.

Out next meeting is at 6pm in the Lounge bar on Wednesday 23rd October.

The Entertainments Committee are really grateful to any promoters who organise a fundraising event, or donate proceeds from their event to the PA Fund. Hopefully everyone will have noticed the new Allen & Heath mixing desk in the gig room, which has been funded by recent benefit events and t-shirt sales.

After tonight’s Milky Wimpshake, Bilge Pump and D’astro gig at the Brudenell (info here), there are three more fundraising events coming up. Hopefully after these gigs we’ll be able to replace some mics! Your support and attendance will really help.

Monday 16th October - Erase Errata, Bilge Pump, Brown Owl and Twattrottrala at the Brudenell. Entry £5.

Friday 27th October: Suck My Left One with Manifesta and PartyParty DJs at Soul Circus. Entry £3.

Friday 3rd November - Shut Your Eyes, That Fucking Tank, C, Downdime, Napoleon IIIrd, Benjamin Wetherill at the Brudenell. Entry £5.

Bilge Pump, D’Astro and Milky Wimpshake will be playing tomorrow night at the Brudenell with all profits going to the PA fund. Entry is only £3 and there will be dancing till midnight. More info on the Cops and Robbers site.

Just to let everyone know that the meeting tonight will be postponed until next Wednesday.

We’re having a week off from Entertainments Committee meetings this week, and will meet up again at about 6pm in the lounge bar on Thursday 12th October.

The two new amps, bass bins, multicore and enormous new mixing desk should all now be installed (or nearly finished) in the Brudenell events room. The money for this equipment has come from benefit gigs and events, t-shirt and badge sales, and our Friends of the Brudenell scheme. Many thanks to everyone who has contributed in any way.

Due to the new equipment being installed, we are able to have new sound engineers joining Moz and Stu at the Club: Matt Robson, Ben Eyes, Ben Gardner and Michael Ward. This will allow Stu and Moz to concentrate on being in the very wonderful Quack Quack!

We have three events coming up to keep the cash coming in!
