ON THE THIRD DAY OF CLUB SEX MY SWEET TART GAVE TO ME
THREE FREE FAGS
TWO JAEGER SHOTS
AND ELECTRO AND A FITTY
BANGERS AND MASH
Another decadent venue, Soho’s Punk is worth a visit for the setting alone; mirrored walls, holograms and velvet-covered chaise lounges all set the scene for a lavish night on the lash. Inspired by the art, music and fashion scenes of Camden and Shoreditch, Bangers and Mash pulls in indie rockers, electroheads and music lovers of all types to one of the most cutting-edge nights London has to offer. Sounds are hugely varied, covering Rock ‘n’ Roll, Nu Wave, Motown, Orgasmopop [you get the idea] with some truly sexy bands and DJs. Mystery Jets, Babyshambles and Filthy Dukes have all played here, along with the resident DJ collective known as Team Disgusting [that’s right – Noel Fielding’s lot!]. Punk also pulls in the shiny celebrity types, including Pixie Geldof, Serg of Kasabian-fame and Henry Holland. If all that that isn’t enough for you, there are plenty of other shiny diverting features to keep you busy – dress up, face painting or tarting around in the video booth anyone?
The only downside is the price – living in Soho as it does, Bangers and Mash isn’t cheap. Make sure you find them on Facebook to get on the reduced £8 cheap list [it’s £10 otherwise]. If you want to save a few more pennies I’d advise popping in to The Fly bar for a sneaky couple beforehand, it’s only round the corner.
