    Absolutely untrue. The organiser is a fantastic guy who has ran one of Britains finest clubs for a number of years now. He is also a huge Morrissey fan, who has been doing these nights long before the current revival in Morrisseys fortunes.

    You're right on one thing though, You shouldnt bother, because you don't deserve to be there.

        Offbeat rules! (Score:0)
        You could always go along, and enjoy the most unpretentious, welcoming night of music and clubbing you'll ever come across... with good, good people, dancing, friends, smiling...

        Or you could stay home, curled into a crippled ball of self-loathing, spitting out unfounded, bitter fury at people who have got the heart to get out and celebrate the things that they love.

        What a grey world you must live in.

        Offbeat rules!
