SUMMARY:DECADES II : SNUBCAT / ZEROES / THE POLAROIDZ
DESCRIPTION:DECADES II\nAfter last year’s sold-out show\, DECADES returns with another\nfundraiser for CLUB 85 and another massive night of music and nostalgia. \n3 bands playing 3 decades of awesome music from the ‘80s\, ’90s and ‘00s\, all in the name of live music and the love we all share for Hitchin’s premium live music venue; the incredible Club 85. \nLast year saw people being turned away at the door\, so we’re\nrecommending everyone to get your tickets in advance (and save yourself a couple of quid while you’re at it!). \nAt only £8 in advance\, with every penny going to Club 85\, join us for another unforgettable night x \n Snubcat \nDedicated to the era that saw guitar music become front and centre of mainstream culture. ‘90s indie/britpop had a bit of everything; it was silly\, it was boisterous\, and it was loud! It had characters and rivalries. It was dance\, it was heavy\, it was sensitive\, but most of all\, it was a movement that brought Britain together in a celebration of the incredible music this country can produce. And yeah\, having a few pints along the way. \nThe final set at Decades lets us all meet up in the 1990s (almost fully grown)! \n Zeroes \n2006 and the release of Whatever People Say I Am\, That’s What I’m Not changed everything – so we’re celebrating 20 years of the Arctic Monkeys at this one-off gig. Join Zeroes for a high-energy live set packed with their biggest anthems – from the raw chaos of “I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor” to the singalong swagger of “Fluorescent Adolescent”. Expect loud guitars\, proper indie nostalgia\, and a crowd that knows every word. If you ever loved the golden era of indie\, this is your night. Don’t miss it. \n The Polaroidz \nThe Polaroidz bring you the alternative 80’s energy of Synth Pop/Post Punk and Indie. A set full of banging tunes to dance and sing to from the top artists of one of the best and diverse eras of music. The coolest ‘School Disco’ for anyone who grew up in the 80’s! \n  \nENTRY £8.00 advance (plus online booking fee)/£10.00 on the door.\nDOORS 7pm \n  \nAge: Persons aged 16+ may attend without a chaperone provided they have photo ID – younger patrons can be signed in at the door and accompanied for the duration of the show by a responsible adult. \nEarplugs are available upon request. \nDownstairs bar open until 1am. \nWe are just a 5-minute stroll from the station.; like all our gigs this show finishes well in time for the last trains North and South to Cambridge\, Peterborough and London. \nFor full up to the minute listings consider signing up to our mailing list for information on existing and upcoming gigs straight to you! \nAnd remember… Club 85 loves you! xo

SUMMARY:HUMOUR: LEARNING GREEK UK PART II
DESCRIPTION:Humour live together in Glasgow. They formed across the 2021 lockdowns\, writing and recording their material at home\, with the music intended as a backdrop to Andreas’ lyrics. Sometimes they’re about letting people down\, sometimes they’re about pets dying\, sometimes they’re about trying to say something when you don’t have anything worth saying.  \nSigning to SoYoung Records off the back of a few rough demos\, it was clear Humour had a unique sound. Their first release ‘Yeah\, Mud!’ gained critical acclaim from NME\, Clash Magazine\, DIY\, Dork and more. Following multiple plays on Radio 1\, BBC Radio 6\, and BBC Scotland\, the band eventually released their debut EP\, ‘Pure Misery’\, which quickly established Humour as one of the most exciting acts in the country. They were featured in NME’S 100\, BBC Scotland’s Top 25 for 2023\, and three tracks from Pure Misery featured in The Herald’s Top 100 Tunes from Scotland in 2022.  \nThe band immediately began to tour extensively off the back of the Pure Misery EP\, supporting Do Nothing\, Folly Group\, Egyptian Blue\, and Enumclaw at gigs and festivals across the UK\, France\, Luxembourg and the Netherlands. The band were then invited across the Atlantic to showcase at SXSW\, where they packed out venues across Austin\, TX. They followed this up with a debut UK headline tour\, including shows in Brighton\, London\, Margate\, Leeds\, and Newcastle. Summer 2023 saw the band perform at Leopalooza\, Truck Festival\, 110 Above and Connect festivals in the UK\, as well as a trip to Belgium for Leffingeleuren festival and a support show with Geese at Botanique in Brussels. An autumn tour supporting DoNothing followed\, taking the band to new cities and venues across the UK and Europe. \nThe band released second EP ‘A Small Crowd Gathered to Watch Me’ at the end of 2023\, exploring new sonic territories\, again to critical acclaim. The songs have received extensive airplay on Radio 1\, BBC Radio 6 and BBC Radio Scotland\, as well as being featured in Spotify’s All New Punk\, Melomania\, Hot New Bands\, All New Rock and more. Following this\, Steve Lamacq selected Humour as the spotlight artist on his New Music Fix show on BBC 6 Music.  \nThe band have since been holed up in the studio with Rod Jones of Idlewild\, recording some new music – details of which will be announced soon… \n  \nDOORS 7pm\nENTRY £12 advance (plus online booking fee) / £15 on the door. \n  \nAge: persons aged 16+ may attend without a chaperone provided they have photo ID – younger patrons can be signed in at the door and accompanied for the duration of the show by a responsible adult. \nEarplugs are available upon request. \nDownstairs bar open until 11pm. \nWe are just a 5-minute stroll from the station; like all our gigs this show finishes well in time for the last trains North and South to Cambridge\, Peterborough and London. \nFor full up to the minute listings please consider signing up to our mailing list for information on existing and upcoming gigs straight to you! \nAnd remember… Club 85 loves you! xo
