    cheap sweaty fun's Interests
GeneralGigs! Records! What do you expect!
MusicWe work with (mainly) punk, skatepunk, ska and hardcore. But we've worked with more obscure and esoteric stuff, such as one-man blues, and bands that defy genre-placement. Essentially, it's what we like. Eventually, I'll put up picutres of every poster we've ever made, so you can see who's come and played for us.

Occasionally, we put out a record. We haven't done this for a while, but in the past we've put out stuff by The Misfits, Bouncing Souls, Snuff, The Cowboy Killers, Choketeen, and more. Mostly these were to celebrate anniversaries of one kind or another.

About me:
Cheap Sweaty Fun is a not-for-profit punk promotion group, started in 1984 by a local record shop owner to raise money for the miners' strikes.

We focus on promoting good punk, hardcore and ska; the only requirements have always been that the promoters like the music. We also make sure everyone gets paid at the end of the night...

Most of our gigs are at TJ's in Newport, though we also use Le Pub, for smaller and more intimate shows.

Currently, the founder Simon is being helped by me - Dave. Anyone else who wants to help is welcome, provided they're not a total arsehole, and they don't mind not getting paid...

Our photos (when finished) will include a selection of choice posters and some images from recent gigs. There will at some point be a link on here to a site with all our posters on. Feel free to have a look, and if there's one there for your band that you want to take, go ahead.

Who I'd like to meet:
We love everyone, even those who have drunk too much cider to be able to speak. Of course, if you piss on our feet or try to cheat us out of ticket money, we might change our opinion

Please come out this Wednesday night (May 9th) to Bottletree to see Japanese avant noisemakers, Mono. Just to give you an idea, Godspeed You Black Emperor are huge fans of this band. Their live shows are careening in fields of volume and agonized sound that thunders against club walls and human skulls. This may sound obvious, but it is always a bit extra of a stretch to bring a band from Japan over to the Alabama, and your support helps us pay for the extra expense that is figured into bands' cost of making the over seas journey. Basically, we will love you forever if you come out to what will surely prove to be one of the finest mid-week mindbenders of this century. Thank you graciously for your support and enthusiasm

HERE IS MONO'S BIO INFO:

Throughout their six-year career, MONO has ascended consistently in both popularity and critical acclaim, with record sales and live show attendance corresponding. But still elusive to the Japanese quartet has been the successful translation of their powerful and violently beautiful live performances to their recordings. Despite their albums' masterful subtleties and majestic walls of noise, the consensus has remained that their transcendent live show is simply incomparable.

If there is any chance of breaking that spell, it lies in You Are There, without a doubt the prime contender to unite the live and recorded worlds of MONO. Once again captured to tape by Steve Albini at his Electrical Audio studios in Chicago, IL, the album extends the cinematic drama of 2003's Walking Cloud and Deep Red Sky, Flag Fluttered and the Sun Shined (also recorded by Albini), while surpassing the sinister heaviness of 2002's lauded One Step More and You Die.

If Walking Cloud was a nuclear winter, then You Are There is the post-war rebirth; steeped in an ominous creation-via-destruction atmosphere not heard since Neurosis' landmark Enemy of the Su
