The Trashy School Prom

Fish out dad’s old ruffled shirt and find a date… its Prom night baby!

The time is fast approaching for bad tans, dancing shoes and 80’s throw-backs everywhere. Trashy at Zodiac will once again be a place where Jocks, Geeks, Teens and Queens can roam free with the hope, or fear, that someone will spike the punch.

Get your picture taken on entry for the Trashy Year book, marvel at the school Cheerleaders and compete for the crowning of Prom King and Queen. Share the last Trashdance with that special someone… What a feeling!

Already established as the best Saturday night in the area with a soundtrack of indie, glam rock and 80s classics, Trashy is bringing a touch of fancy dress madness to its usually glamorous crowds at The Trashy School Prom. Expect a selection of 80’s classics from the likes of Simple Minds, OMD, Madonna, Kenny Loggins, The Knack, Prince and Queen. Plus the usual eclectic mix of pop through the ages, featuring Motown, 80’s, 90’s, Glam, Punk, Soft Rock, Disco, Electro and Guilty Pleasures from DJ’s Lady Flysox, Tommy Kneecaps and Nelly B Page Entry fee includes admission into indie electro night Transformation in the Main Room and Bar Academy’s rocky Room 101.

MINISTRY announces their final ever world tour.

Static X's Tony Campos has recently stepped in to fulfill bass duties on behalf of the recently departed Ministry/Killing Joke bassist Paul Raven. For its spectacular two-and-a-half-hour 'C U LaTouR' set, Ministry will perform tracks from 'The Last Sucker' as well as songs that revisit the band's rich and provocative 30-year musical history.

Emma Scott Present Saving Aimee

Another great night of hot, new bands from the First Lady of Rock herself, Emma Scott from Kerrang Radio! This is the 10th in the series, and tickets always go fast, so get yours NOW! Saving Aimee headline, and are currently working with Justin Hawkins (ex Darkness) so it'll be interesting hearing new material from them! Support to be added, and a club night after the gig, so you can carry on with that Saturday night feeling even longer! It's an all-ages show, as long as you're accompanied by an adult. Over 14's are welcome but will have to leave after the gig.
