Fndays

I Dream The Mission. 11pm- 3am. £3(£1 admission tickets circulating). Sec Festival preview for details.

I Floral Riot Network 2. 10.30pin—4am. £2 Full of indie kids flopping theirl'ringes to the likes of James. Stone Rosesarid other current new wave faves. The playlist is moving steadily towards an tip-to-date dance orientation. but still includes the odd classic trom a few years back. Popular and deservedly so.

I Marleys Shady Lady 's. 10.30pm—3am. £2. Reggae is'l'l 1E sound ofthe summer. and this might just he the club toconvince the crowd that a slower music tempo does not necessarily equate with an empty tltiricc‘fltitii.

I Zappa Wilkie Ilotise. l0pm—3am. After the success ol~ its midweek slot. Zappa tries to capture the weekend clubbers with its ‘strangely strange. oddly normal' blend of 60s and 70s tracks. From Hendrix and Led Zepplin to the Velvet Underground and The Doors. with Fleetwood Mac squeezed somewhere inbetween. A rather unusual concept in club decoration too. That‘s all I'm say irig.

Billed as a pre-cluh ‘club‘ with a Balearic attitude — diverse dance and upfront sounds mixed with classics. Lighting by WAR and backdrops by Dark Angel. I Katch Shady Lady's. llpm—3am. £2. Indie. indie and yet more indie music — but the lack of originality does not detract their band of faithful regulars who shamble along every week regardless.
