Support comes from Dead Format, a two piece band with guitarist and singer James and Kev McGee on drums. They have had showcase gigs featured in The Times with Manchester's finest acts and praise from Bonehead, Tim Burgess and The Enemy. The Step On DJs are Northern through and through. Born in Stoke-on-Trent, the boys were bought up with Northern Soul, Britpop and the infamous music of the Hacienda. Special Guest DJ Darren Hall joins Handy and Peachy from 8pm. Entry is £3.
