Boards
5 live bands this Saturday including the excellent Pack of Wolves, then DJs til 4am. The Good Ship,
Saturday at The Good Ship = 4 great bands from 8 to 1130pm and then DJs til 4am. You are not gonna get a night with more variety, a friendlier crowd or as much fun as this anywhere in London tonight. The crowd is a mix of bands, fans, weekend warriors; mainly locals and a smattering of Antipodeans, plus all nationalities. No chavs or idiots allowed in. Plus it is a ridiculously cheap £5 (or £4 with cut out of this) for entry. If you wanna avoid all the St. Patricks Day hullabaloo then stay just for the bands. If you wanna hear the best of Irish music then the DJs will play about 50% of the usual Saturday night fayre and 50% of the good Irish stuff; Pogues, Dubliners, Ash, Sultans of Ping FC, Sinead etc from 1130 until 4am.
