What’s Flapper-ning?

Yep, the ‘hilarious’ puns never stop here eh? Anyway...in the spirit of encouraging more folk to explore one of the perhaps less obvious (but one of my favourite) music venues in Birmingham here’s a trio of dates at the legendary Flapper. Hell yeah! Whilst this won’t be of much interest to my loyal readers across the world (hello Bogata...a big shout out to my Tobago massive) if you’re not anywhere near The Flapper think of it as a gentle prompt to check out what’s going on in your neck of the woods. The chances are that someone, somewhere near you is putting on some great stuff...

Anyway, January 22nd sees Killer Yogi take to the floor with support from Jester, Romans and Sylvia (with a DJ set from Johnny Foreigner!). On the 28th January you've got Conquistadors, the hotly tipped Blacklister, God Damn and Sperare (with Shapes DJ-ing) and on the 23rd February The Flapper goes Gay For Johnny Depp (well you would, wouldn’t you?). If you haven’t heard on any of these bands yet...well that’s kind of the point. Suffice to say it’s all going to be loud, sweaty and positively life affirming. Now you don’t get that from a night on the sofa eh...unless you’re getting down and dirty with a jar of peanut butter and a variety of root vegetables. Just me? Oh...
