Very excited about ths: PigPen is a music, performance and poetry night run by friends Ben and Gabriel. Ben’s 28 and PA to Gabriel, 21. Gabriel is on the autism spectrum and non-verbal, he communicates with a Yes/No button communication device. Gabriel chooses the acts he likes from the internet using his Yes/No com device. Ben’s an artist, Gabriel an autist! After the amazing success of PigPen at The Macbeth last May and July - we are pleased to announce another PigPen night at The Macbeth on Monday 9th November! This time we are working in collaboration with ’Club Attitude’ from Attitude is Everything! Attitude is Everything have been working with us to improve Deaf and disabled people’s access to PigPen with us at PigPen and The Macbeth. This month - PigPen takes on a rather arty tone - headlining, we have a really exciting band called ’Electricity in Our Homes’ (EIOH), edgy art rock with a pop edge! We also have another act new to PigPen - Yaaard, minimalist, trance beats from Bournemouth. Then we have our PigPen regulars - Tim Ten Yen, a joy to behold for those of you who haven’t experienced his pop magic and lyrical genius. Kaya King, who blew away the crowd with their experimental noise music collaboration back in May and July and Niall Spooner-Harvey, compere, poet and all-round funny, witty, surreal guy. Finally, we have just announced a really exciting new group, The Honkyfinger Power Trio! - they’re bound to blow the crowd away with their energetic, crazy, electro blues! As usual, resident DJ Brian Turner spins his blend of post punk, indie pop and 60’s soul on the decks and of course and we have exciting new DJ talent FRESH FROM PARIS - Dj Lemon Mcwright ... AS WELL AS ALL THIS, FREE COMICS FOR ALL! Okay, so Monday’s a crap day but we got a great and full line-up of top quality acts, great DJ’s, free comics and a roof-top BBQ. It’s well worth a hangover at work on Tuesday! Hope to see you there, Ben and Gabriel and the rest of the PigPen team xx
