Rare FM is more than proud to present Pensioners' Yacht Club...

A lovely jubbly brand spanking new club night at The Relentless Garage, next to Highbury and Islington tube station on Friday Dec. 4th. A two room oracular spectacular featuring both Live Bands and DJs.

Headlining the Main Room we've got The Neat all the way down from the badlands. These Hullmonian balladsmiths have been tearing the circuit a new one with their gnarly post-punk; or, as Steve Lamacq said...
"The latter day fall jostling with the XX teens ... Sounds like it's been exhumed from 1979. Neat Neat Neat"

Like a better dressed Robin to the The Neat’s Batman, we are pleased to announce that Live Music Society's The Bizets will be providing support. We don’t have a snappy Steve Lamacq quote for them but the ever-reliable Guitar Techniques Magazine called them "CONFIDENT, UPBEAT AND EXCITING". So there. Besides, ‘Bizet’ is Peruvian for 'safer than a really safe safe-house', so get down early to check them out.

Headlining the main room on the decks with some Indie-Electro Big Bits will be Pete Wheeler (Oaxford Social Club), who’s strut his stuff alongside the likes of Friendly Fires and Micachu in locations from Glastonbury to, err, the Lock Tavern. In support is Tom Travis of Punks Wear Prada fame and Pensioners’ Yacht Club residents hailing from Bournemouth. Because that's where the sea is.

If all that doesn't sound quite to the cut of your jib do not fear, for in Room Two the Bridge the Gap boys take over. Spinning hip hop, soul, breaks and with a cheeky bit of dub on the side these boys will kill it. To close the room we've got a massive dubstep set from the Closer Sound boys who destroyed the Big Chill House last week.

Throw in some duty-free priced door charge (£5) and alcohol (Lager/Cider Pints, Vodka/Gin & Mixer all £2.40) to the mix and you've got the makings of a mediumly-good to pant-wettingly-exciting night out for all the family. Bring your grandparents and/or any actual pensioners and you'll get in for free.

Doors are at 22:30. We’re closing at 03:00 the next morning. Tickets available on the door or via the UCLU online shop now.
