Friday 6th January, 11pm-3am, FREE
Soundburger (club): our newest club night is starting with a wee free taster, it's free entry and you can also expect a free CD on the door (whilst stocks last). And the music? Well get ready for some 60's and 70's stuff: heavy psychedelic funk, hard and funky rock, fuzz guitars, hammond organ, hard drums, heavy bass, piercing horns, psychedelic sitars, moody flutes, deep jazzy and trippy grooves, psych soul, latin and afro influences, obscure cover versions and more! All 45's, all night!

Saturday 7th January, 7.30pm-3am, £4 (or free / donations with invite)

The annual Henry's X-Mess party with: Hosemox, Pump Action, Blacken The Day, Slind Bummit, Mayonnaise*, Dancing Mice, Denghis.

Everyone tends to have their Christmas parties in December, it's a bit predictable... We have ours in January, when we've just about recovered from New Year excesses. This year Santa's been good to us and brought us just what we'd asked for: some new (wipable!) chairs, so come and see our new chairs, you can piss on them time and time again! We'll also have (recycled) Christmas trees and decorations, party food, and an all 90's playlist in-between bands (to tie in with the return of 90s post rock legends Mayonnaise*).

Edinburgh Tekno Cartel: <ETC>01: Space Trash (club, bass / techno / hardcore)
feat. Alias23, Damaged Electronics, Morphamish, Toxicologist
http://www.facebook.com/events/128451843934393/

EdinburghTeknoCartel bring the best underground electronics to Edinburgh and the best Edinburgh has to offer to the rest of the world and this will be the launch of their own regular club night: ETC. Each night will represent a journey through electronic music with a focus towards creating a happy, hedonistic party environment. Expect musical diversity, while still gravitating towards the harder end of the spectrum.
Nights will be themed, with the incentive of cheap entry to those willing to dress up and bring a bit more vibe to the party. The theme for ETC 01 is Space Trash: we are looking for broken robots, Barbarellas, sleazy cyborgs and spaced out princesses to come and boogie down to some sleazy sci-fi beats.
