Post-punk power trio Autoban bring their
fusion of guitar-hookery, punchy rhythms and stiletto-sharp lyrics to
the Academy II on December 5 for their inaugural 'Mad Hatter's Ball'.
Bowler, Beret or Beer Hat; Fedora, Fez,
Tribly or Top Hat, the possibilities are endless. So get your Thinking
Cap on and dig out your finest for a hat-tastic night of dirty dancing.
Hats are compulsory, dissidents will be shamed and ladies can
accessorize, obviously.
Support on the night comes from a motley crew of Dublin's finest party djs. Check myspace.com/autoban for details. Tix from ticketmaster.ie
