In 2006, a crack group of hat wearers were sent to prison by a fashion court for a crime they didn’t commit.. they promptly escaped from a maximum security sweat shop to the Pecknam underground where they survive as soldiers of headwear.  If you’re having a bad hair day…and no one else can help…and if you can find them….may be you can hire …. The Hat Team…….

sorry i was bored

Hatsundays tonight from around 8:30 (maybe earlier if i get out of work)  its also Denise’s last shift at the bar so i think we should go down and see her off…with booze and hats

see you there

his hatness….

NeedleandThread Presents ~ Inner Terrestrials {South-Londons most avin it punk band} headlining
with support; BlackFire, {Navajo Indian punk trio} , Bogus Gasman {oi-core, ska-punk} , Babar Luck {Frankenstanee words of wisdom} …

its gonna be a banger!

The INNER TERRESTRIALS have been together since 1994 mixing hardcore punk, dub, ska and more creating a powerful and eclectic sound. Formed in South-East London the band have gigged and toured extensively playing venues, festivals, squat parties/centers, demo’s and protest sites all over the UK and Europe..

BLACKFIRE is a Native American (Din\u00e9) traditionally influenced, high-energy, politically driven group comprised of two brothers and their sister. BLACKFIRE played their first show in 1989, since then they have toured national and internationally, with countless U.S. tours (including a recent stint on the Van\u2019s Warped Tour), 10 European tours, treks to Canada, Mexico and even twice to the sub-Saharan deserts of Africa..

BOGUS GASMAN burst into life in 2003, spraying an unsuspecting public with dub laced hardcore. What they lack in covers they make up for in brass, fat basslines and guitars that go chk chk chk chk. Put yer socks on mate..

BABAR LUCK, former bassist of UK skacore band King Prawn, now performing his frankenstaanee blend of one love conscious lyric, unplugged punk vitality, and ska-infused rhythms..

This is a very rare gig for South London!
