THE GRAVEYARD SHIFTS

About Me

Psychobilly pioneers DEMENTED ARE GO! go head-to-head with partners in crime THE CARAVANS.
The two bands first appeared together in 1987, on the bill of infamous rockabilly haunt KLUBFOOT, supporting the legend that is Ray Campi. In the words of Caravans frontman Marc Penington;
"The night was chaos! Been like that ever since when [we] get together on the same bill. When the two bands get together, the party lasts until the last man drops". Demented Are Go! confirm;
"Demented have always had a good relationship with the Caravans. When we've been on the same bill the shows have always been a blast. Also, their current bass player (Choppy) used to be in DAG so [we're] looking forward to catching up on some old times." With DJ sets from your resident psychos Spikey Mike and Peter Von Sleaze, rockabilly burlesque from Miss Baby Bones, fire poi and contact juggling (think the weird crystal ball thing in Labyrinth) and classic horror movies screened all night, this is going to be one HELL of a party!Tickets are available in advance for £10 from www.barflyclub.com or on the ticketline 0844 8472424 or £12 on the door on the night.
