The Old Switcharoo... SureFire @ The Telegraph, Thursday 3rd Sep We were at panic stations last week when news filtered through that Enigma had closed it's doors for the last time! So with that we've gone to work to organize a new venue, and haven't we snagged a bobby dazzler! The Telegraph in Newcastle city centre (just off Central Station area) absolutely epitomises what we're all about and offers everything we could wish for in a venue. It's intimate, the staff are cool and clued up, and the pints aren't watered down. We've had to postpone the event date in order for us to re-organise and let the word get out, but hopefully it'll be worth the wait. So, what to expect: The nite itself is a fairly low-key, party oriented affair (we're not anticipating many people to show) held at a venue that is quite intimate (small). The emphasis is firmly placed on providing a friendly atmosphere (we're twats really) and a quality selection of underground dance music (cheapest shite we could pick up from Beatport). All of which is totally free ('cos we daren't actually charge people for this crap)! In case you didn't catch the last one (you blatantly didn't catch the last one), here's why you should come along and see what none of the fuss is about. >Free entry >Sensibly priced drinks >Excellent music, an all encompassing blend of underground house (with a splash of techno) >Free entry >Talented and handsome DJ's >A terrace (Everyone loves a terrace!) >Free entry Proceedings kick off at 7pm sharp, Thursday 3rd September. So what are you waiting for?? The event to start?? That would be sensible!! Hope you can make it P.S - We've got a group set up on Facebook (fancy that)! If you like what you see, be a gem and show your support by joining up. Better still, invite some friends as well! The more people laughing at us, the happier we are ! http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=113318664601 Cheers Anth and James x
Just knocked this up tonight. Brand spankers 80min mix showcasing the kind of music we (I) play. Just follow the link! Feel free to tell me what you think, all comments welcome. Especially the good ones! [ame]http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ESULDTUL[/ame]
haha well the other lad, james, is more into the fidgety stuff. i do dabble when i'm playing out but for this one i've stuck to me guns and played more to my own tastes..! check it out anyways and let me know what ya think will ya!
Update: Daniel Jobson (member of this board, Jobbi) has been drafted in and will be joining us on the 3rd September, supplying his trademark brand of prog/tech house and techno. In the past he's plied his trade at nites such as VICE CLUB and BEAT THERAPY and is a very welcome addition to the SureFire roster !
After a gruelling wait, the moment none of you have been waiting for is finally upon us! Tonight - SureFire @ The Telegraph (through the pedestrian tunnel behind bar Destination, Newcastle Central Station area). Prepare to have your minds blown as residents Anth Knott and James Smith, plus special guest Daniel Jobson (Beat Therapy, VICE CLUB), play COMPACT DISCS containing MUSIC recorded by OTHER ARTISTS! Bear witness as these 'talented' DISC JOCKEYS then MIX (or blend) these 'records' INTO EACH OTHER, at the SAME TEMPO and at just the right time, so as to create the illusion that you're actually just listening to one 'tune'... ALL NIGHT!!! "It was like I was just listening to the one song all night! Personally I thought it sounded a bit sh-" Said one person who was drinking in the bar we last played at last. On a slightly more serious note (slightly), here is why you should consider attending a SureFire party. >The DJs are canny good actually. Honestly! >The entry is free >The drink is cheap >The music is quality >The venue is mint >And because we'd really like it if you did! SureFire is all about creating a cool little underground nite, held in an awesome intimate venue, where people can just let loose and (hopefully) enjoy a highly credible, no frills nite done on the cheap. We specialise in all things good in underground house & techno and we'd love it if you could join us. Hope to meet you soon, SureFire x
it's the same spiel i pester people with on facebook. i'm hoping more people will start to share your way of thinking! wasn't great in all honesty mate, BUT we're going to keep plugging away and hopefully as time goes on and (fingers crossed) word spreads it'll grow and develop a little following. thats the dream anyway! next one is probably going to be on the second thurs of oct. i'll post the details on here asap. on a different note bud, how was the ibiza season at savannah? heard many a good thing concerning the goodship Jaunt! our lass was hoping to see you lads over there last month, apparently you's are all old school buddies? emma atkinson ring any bells?
The other lads did but I went to Monkey High with James. When did he stop getting called Jamie? Im good mates with Emma's brother tho. Sound lad Jaunt went really well again this year. I was only out there on holiday for 3 weeks so obviously missed the majority of them which was a gutter. We had some quality guests on and some epic afters. Standard The closing party last weekend in the Coco Loco room at Privilege which was supposed to have been canny. You got the next Surefire sorted?
Aye he's a good kid is Jamie like. I think people do still call him that but he introduced me to himself as James and I've never known any better! Aye Emma's brother is a canny lad as well, still trying to get him to bother himself and come to one of our do's like haha! Good to hear it about Jaunt matey. I got a friend request of Chris Blackhall today so I was able to deek a few pics taken during the season. Looked quality ! Next do's sorted man, Thurs 8th Oct. I'll have a post up about it within the hour! Hope ya can make it! And if you can get a few pals to join ya that would be funtastic
