The Return Of Club Choke (Rave On Avon, Room 2 @ Lakota) This Saturday!!!
 
As part of Rave On Avon (the all night clubbing part of the epic Bristol Festival) Club Choke returns for one night only to host the 2nd Room at Lakota.

10pm - TAGTEAM CHOKE - The Sounds Of The Everything.
 
11pm - KILKA SERCO. Tearing you a new K-hole.

Midnight - BIG JOAN. Anthems for doomed youth culture.
 
1am - HUNTING LODGE. Chaos-prodding terminal ecstatic intensity. Guest vocals from TEAM BRICK.

Special Guest, DJ NADOONE, playing choons between bands.
 
EXCLUSIVE video installation from acclaimed piss artist EISENSTEIN NEWBOOTY.

We will then hand over to Svengali, General Disarray etc for junglistic Mongrel sounds 'til our bellies call for breakfast. Please note that Rave On Avon sold out last year. There's no guarantee that there'll be any tickets left on the door. The best course of action is to go to http://www.thebristolfestival.org/festival-2009/tickets and buy an all weekend wristband (incredibly good value, especially if you don't plan to sleep) or volunteer to help out for a bit so you get in for nothing. 

See you down the front!

* PESTIVAL is a festival celebrating insects in art, and the art of being an insect. Pestival 2009 runs from 3rd-6th September @ The Southbank Centre and is jam-packed with insect-inspired talks and debates, as well as comedy, music, walks, workshops, installations and experiments. For further information, please visit: http://pestival.org

Happenings and Killings presents music;


Thought Forms

http://www. myspace. com/thoughtforms

A Thought Form is a structured interdimensional energy form intentionally created to carry out a specific task for which it has been programmed. Thought Forms are a three piece signed to Geoff Barrow's Invada label. Debut out in 2009.

"Feedback-soaked diz-busting that recalls Major Stars shows of yore." The Wire

Same Actor

http://www. myspace. com/sameactor

London based Chris Cook will be playing sitar and making live electronics. Simultaneously. He is signed to Brighton's Wrong Music, and has collaborated with various Planet Mu artists such as Urban Myth, Chevron and Kyler under the guise of Hot Roddy.


SJ Esau

http://www. myspace. com/sjesau

Notoriously hard to define. We're happy to have Sam playing The Cube. Signed to critically acclaimed abstract hip-hop label Anticon, you can expect Sam to be making noises from his face, as well as using his body to control instruments and hit objects.


Freeze Puppy

www. myspace. com/freezepuppy

Signed to Bristol's Clean Cut records, Freeze Puppy plays his favourite venue. What is Freeze Puppy. Hard to say, but here are some of the stabs people have had at it: "Electro-creole pop", "Jungle music", "Zappaish". Come and listen to the series of compression waves he creates with his being.



John Stapleton will play vinyl in the bar.



Friday 13th March. The Cube. Doors at 8pm. £5.



This is a fundraiser for the Malawi Education Project.
