Matt from Hudson10 has sent me the following..
Back by unpopular demand, the toptastic Adi (from X-factor) and The Gaze at The Old Vic, Southsea!
Aa locally based band they describe themselves as "A progressive, freeform, alternative slant on musical pieces made famous by extremely talented artists reenacted by Adi and the Gaze by exchanging the same amount of talent first used to create such master pieces for the equivalent amount of alcohol, and then some. Exclusively contracted at present to The Old Vic, Portsmouth"
Where alternative = not that great, loved by few hated and cringed at by many and freeform = constant time changes and often on the one individual instrument at one time and progressive = gets worse as the night goes on and exclusive = basically no one else will have them! They list their influences as mainly beer and vodka based cocktails.
It's a night put together in aid of Aids awearness as it's being held on World Aids Day (and if I remember right from last time there were plenty of free condoms and lube given out, worth popping in just for that!)
The only cost of entry is your self pride and dignity and the bar is open from when you get there til way after you should have stopped drinking!
If you are planning to come down you will need to refer to the following check list as we have put together a list of essential items needed for the night...
1. Your good selves!
2. Clothes for your good selves (any will do, we're not fussy, just naked people distract us from our drinking, oh and our playing too).
3. Beer tokens. any form will do; coinage, paper tokens, even the plastic flexible friend, anything to help you prize that essential alcohol from those demanding bar staff.
4. A good singing voice as crowd participation is always called upon (plus we have not got one between us)
5. A taxi number (as it is unadvisable to stay sober for the whole gig).
6. A sick bucket for Matt!
The band will of course be trotting out in yet another range of stupid costumes (fancy dress is optional for the normal folk). Being World Aids Day we are recommending that RED be the colour of choice.
To recap...
Who: Adi and The Gaze
Where: The Old Vic
When: Friday 1st December 2006
Watt: Measurement of power. Equal to 1 Joule per second
When again: When ever you can get there til way after you should have left
Witch: Burn the witch!
Why: Drinks, music, charity, drinks
Web: www.myspace.com/adiandtheduvets
Hope to see some of your good selves there!
PS Adi (from X-factor) wasn't on the tv but did go to the auditions, he wasn't let through as they thought him too good and wanted to make a competition of it.
PPS Please do not come if you are easily offended by crowd participation, bad singing or acts of a gay and lesbian nature.
So there you go, head on down to the Old Vic on December 1st for a good old drunken singalong. I can't guarantee that Matt will throw up, but anything's possible
