Featuring
Phobia From Blackwater, this will be punk-poppers Phobia’s first gig in nearly 25 years. Having toured with Manic Street Preachers, and Mega City 4, they also released several acclaimed singles and had support from the likes of John Peel and Steve Lamacq.

Modern Art Thieves A new Aldershot band formed from the ashes of Farnborough Groove acts The Perfect Circles, Blue Velvet, Breaker and Toys In The Attic. This is their debut gig, playing covers of your favourite punk/mod anthems but with a twist.

Blindmans Rainbow Thoughtful moving indie-pop from Reading, they toured with Neds
Atomic Dustbin in the early 1990s.

The 4 Marys The 4 Marys were originally around during the 1990ís. Since then the band had lost a little hair and some long-sight vision but none of the power and passion in their rock n roll.

I-Jay (acoustic) Former front man of EMI recording artists Spliff Riff in the 1980s, I-Jay is local legend and acoustic artist based in Aldershot and plays thought provoking reggae tunes.

Wob (acoustic) Originally from Reading, Wob is humorous and passionate and combines, clever acoustic style and a lively stage presence was definitely worth seeing.

Plus DJ Billy Liberator, who will be spinning classic indie/rock/pop gems.
With compËre Andy Clark.

Doors 4.30pm, first act on 5pm sharp!
