La Resistance! La Resistance!

About Me

iBop is a monthly pre-club night serving the needs of the music starved residents of Strathbungo/Shawlands/general Queens Park area of south Glasgow. (You don't have to live in the southside to come to iBop. That would be silly. And hard to enforce.) Instead of, or indeed before, dragging yourself into town on a Friday night in pursuit of aural pleasure, all you need do is wander down to the Pollok Ex-Servicemen's Social Club, enter our iBop raffle to win a bottle of vino (tickets only £4!), dance, drink and hear music worthy of your ears. iBop takes place every first Friday of the month, so don't be forgetting!
