About me: WE CAME HERE TONIGHT TO GET STARTED, TO COLD ACT ILL OR GET RETARDED!!!
Illegal Seagull is a party / club night / disco / rave (sort of) / mini festival / indoor carnival extravaganza run by Lucie Red and Nadoone, that takes place in at The Attic in Bristol approximately once every 3 months.
"I don't have any point of reference for that gig. It was total chaos; dreadful by any reasonable measure but somehow awesome at the same time. It was like a government funded youth club where the children are indiscriminately spiked with Angel Dust" - Nick Talbot, Gravenhurst
"I wasn't raving, I wasn't! I danced to buttonhead and then I just looked perplexed until I went home! It was quite funny..." - Team Brick
"You could call it No Rave, but then you'd have to be Theo." - Dan Bennett, Hunting Lodge
"Is that the day when the venue went to the heaven like a starship with some punk screaming we don't want you anymore on our boat?" - Sgure
"One night I went to earlier this year featured some blokes doing an "ironic" DJ set which involved dancing around on stage behind Fisher Price decks to an unmixed CD of random old pop-dance/pop-rave "classics" - Ebeneezer Goode, Whigfield, SL2 etc. It was appalling but their antics were entertaining in a "what the fuck?" kind of way. Bizarrely, the dancefloor was rammed and going off."
Sell By Dave, Best Before
"Nice people running it and their hearts are in the right place. I'm sure they've had some top guests and wicked nights, but I was shocked at just how 'Nathan Barley' the whole thing was. The decor and vibe made it look/feel like one of those party scenes in the Mighty Boosh." - Sell By Dave, Best Before
"Illegal Seagull are arty crunchy DJs and party planners. Happy burlesque hardcore! They do glaring, glorious distortion so well and will certainly add further mischief to the night. Bring sunglasses." - Qu Junktions
"ILLEGAL SEAGULL are apparantly manning the bar- they are nathan electro barlycore to the max and should be avoided unless you want a std which my housemate learnt to his COST." - some cunt who can't spell, doesn't know what electro is and whose friend has (evidently) never heard of condoms
"Get your fill of gonzo punk, no-wave, yacht rock and hair anthems at Illegal Seagull, a party/disco/indoor carnival extravaganza taking place at The Attic in Bristol approximately once every three months. 'Bring props and facepaint and percussive instruments,' they request." - Plan B Magazine
"Mad and messy, Illegal Seagull’s extravaganzas share more with rave spirit than arms-folded gig etiquette, yet have put on a bunch of bands that definitely bring the rock - from Lovvers to Hunting Lodge - go figure. Or don’t and get down instead." - Venue Magazine
-------------------------------------------------
COME DRESSED IN YOUR MUM'S BEST CHINA!!
LONG LIVE ILLEHALA HAHAHAH SEAGHSHULL
Bring props and bring facepaint and percussive instruments (maybe).
-------------------------------------------------
SPLASHBACK! is a monthly non genre b(i)ased disco that takes place at The Mother's Ruin in Bristol. Expect to hear anything from hardcore punk to italo disco to rockabilly to bassline to classic rock to europop to riot grrrl to oldskool rave to prog rock to belgian bleep techno to crossover thrash to yacht rock to no wave to indie pop from resident DJs Nadoone, Lucie Red, Christopher, Longsnogs & Richie Moment plus occasional special guests (nobody famous, just more of our mates, lolz). Only £1 to get in if you arrive early enough!!! And arrive early because last time it was one-in-one-out so there.
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone with a flashing, colourful myspace default picture.
Ariel Pink
Oh yeah. If anyone wants to play Illegal Seagull, we usually put on bands/acts/djs that are either black rainbow funcore, rainbow-noise or just dark-jam, but not necessarily all 3 at once. Other than that there are not really any genre limitations within those loose umm, things. We like 'tribal' kind of sounding music too, not in a hippy way. So either message us here or email at srslylol07@gmail.com

The 2009 Batcave will feature installations from exciting new artists of the ‘Dark London Underground’ and visuals from the upcoming ‘Welcome To The Batcave’ book, along with this year’s bitcrushed message from the creature in t

Hello party crew! Your old mate Clark Kunt here and I have lots of naughty noize for you to download.
I've put together not one, but TWO brand new mixes that will get your heads banging and your arms reaching while face your may well be otherwise engaged.
For all you Wonky Donkeys who like raving with handrails, check out...
CLARK KUNT: GOT TO GET UP AT 36! This is a little collection of techy wobblers to keep you off the straight and narrow as you dance towards the door of Dr. Kellogg.
(Tracklisting in the Blog section of my page)
Next up,
CLARK KUNT: OBESTIALITY The name derives from something that is both heavy and dirty in the extreme, which is simply the only way to describe this mix. Slow, chugging and wiggy - this will send you on a cosmic adventure through a world of wickedness. Deep breath!
(Again, tracklisting in the Blog section of my page)
