Living Room on the 18th

Posted Thu, May 13, 18:21 by Andrew Stafford

It's the last open mic night of the 2009/2010 academic year! Come along to see off some of your favourite faces in style, and hopefully say hello to some new ones at that. There will also be a meeting beforehand which will be deciding important things like budget and what will go on in freshers, so if you want to have your say, come along!

Living Room NOT ON 4th May

Posted Thu, Apr 29, 20:16 by Andrew Stafford

Sorry guys but The Living Room will not be on on the 4th, as it clashes with the EVAs which the committee will be at, hopefully to win best event!!!

Until then, enjoy the music at MayFest on the 1st, which Livesoc will be at in force

This week in LiveSoc!

Posted Sat, Jan 30, 19:07 by Andrew Stafford

Hi there guys!

Hope exams have gone well for all of you and you've enjoyed the freedom of the last few days! If you want to spend some of that freedom listening to some live acoustic acts then this is the week for you!

Coming up on Tuesday we have the first open mic of the new year, where you can see some familiar faces and hopefully some new ones, with the usual great variety of styles.

Also, everyday this week, between 2.30 and 4.30, we are providing live music in the CU marquee on campus, and the best of Livesoc's musical talent will be taking to the stage!

Finally, and excitingly, on Friday, we have our latest pubcrawl - theme cliques, so get yourselves chavved/gothed/emoed up and join us for a night in Portswood. No doubt taking in a bit of live music on the way!

Much Love

LiveSoc

Happy New Year

Posted Fri, Jan 8, 12:08 by Andrew Stafford

Hello from LiveSoc!!! I know we've been fairly quiet since the start of term, but never fear, we will be starting up again with our usual enthusiasm after exams. We wouldn't want you to hold us responsible for missing revision now would we?

There will be plenty to look forward to over the next term, including some gigs that we're quite excited about, and of course, more great music at our regular acoustic night and jams. Also keep an eye out for what is promised to be the top selling live music based society calendar of the year, coming soon - catch the committee becoming their idols in funny and often embarrassing ways (and outfits)!

Look forward to seeing you all at a gig soon, and good luck in exams!

Love

LiveSoc

Spreading LiveSoc love and Christmas cheer,

A massive congratulations to everyone who showed up to our Cancer Research fundraiser at the Hobbit, you'll be pleased to know we managed to raise £165 for a very good cause! Also, a huge thank you to the bands who played: The New Decibels, Used Inc and Fighting Fiction - the night wouldn't have been anywhere near as good without you.
