About me: Lightclub is a reluctant music promotion mechanism. Started off in 2005 with a gig in Newcastle... and then called it a sesh.
Who I'd like to meet: "Midnight rockers... city slickers..." Deejays, dilettantes, scenesters and promoters. B-boys and B-girls, fly guys and net nerds... lovers, fighters, 24-hour party people... roughnecks and greenhorns... and bands too, of course. Anyone fighting the good fight.
A return to The Brickyard from Carlisle’s newest Space-Cadets The Lucid Dream. After a triumphant debut gig last month be ready for some mind-blowing sounds
Also a club night will follow the bands featuring a wide-range of soulful Rock n Roll music to get your feet-a-moving!
