FRIDAY
Your favourite flexing wigs, Wigflex, are back at Rough Trade this Friday. Having just been the centrepiece of Noisey’s mini-doc on the Notts Electronic scene (peep HERE), they’re now bringing your three favourite things together (yes, even if you’re a veggie), chicken, waffles, and CONGI. Yup, live minimal Electronic goodness from Notts own’ CONGI, whilst you eat chicken and waffles. Literal dream. TOE SZYSLAK brings some ‘boogie-down badness’ too. Nah, legit, what more could you ask for?

Continuing the food related #content, at Yarn Bar (you know, that craft place that has just opened next to the Concert Hall), JUGANAUT is bringing some of Notts’ finest wordsmiths together for ‘Fresh Out the Oven’. First up, its an open mic, so if you reckon you’ve got some fire (haha, another oven related pun), then you can step up to the mic. If you’re more of a ‘I’d rather appreciate other people’s fine wordings’ kinda guy / gal, you’ll be happy to know that both TY HEALY, and VANDAL SAVAGE have slots this eve. Legendary lyricsists. Quirky venue. Gonna be a banger.

Do you like guitars? Do you like big sing-songs with woah-ohs and melodies that will make you swoon all the way over to the merch desk? Well, LACEY have got a treat for you then! The Alt-Rock four piece are back at Rescue Rooms to bring you huge choruses, with a sprinkling of Pop-Punk, and lots and lots of guitars. Great guitars. So, why don’t ya go and join them as they play that epic stage? No, serious, why? You have no excuse. Do it, now. Nice 1.
Support comes from some of Notts finest fellow guitar poppers. CUT THE HEROICS, and FOR THE GIRL. Both bands that are bound to have ya singing their choruses at the top of your lungs in the shower. Probs pre-warn your neighbours now, yeah?
