Sapphic Traffic - 21st August 10pm *NB LATER START THAN PREVIOUSLY ADVERTISED*

sapphic

Sapphic Traffic is a safe space where you can dance, not-dance, drink, not-drink, talk, not-talk and experience music in the company of like-minded types, a space in which there are no presumptions, norms, or demands made of participants beyond extending respect to others involved. For all shapes, sizes, genders and persuasions.

We are back for a summer drive in. God hates fun but we love Gaga and need an excuse to throw a party. Half price entry to those in Gaga themed outfits. Best Gaga outfit will win a rad prize. If you don't like Gaga* well, we don't know why you don't like Gaga, maybe you are God?!

Cheap Drinks//Cupcakes//Stalls

Our resident DJ's will be bringing you all the best sounds of Indie, Shoegaze, Rock, Pop, Punk, Electronica, ...Electro, Trash, Riot Grrrl and Noisiness.

Here is some inspiration from the nice folks over at Westboro Baptist Church. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veNQwzW8ays

Doors: 10pm-3am
Tax: £2 for members
£3 for guests of members

*Think yourself lucky, it was very nearly a Justin Bieber themed party!

**************************************************************
The common place is a members club. Don’t let that put you off, it’s easy. To enter you either need to be a member, or be introduced at the door by a member. Information about how you can join can be found following the link below. It's really easy and only costs 2 quid!

The Logic of Occupation - Sat May 22nd 4.30 pm
 The Logic of Occupation: demand nothing, occupy everything!  Films and discussion around the political importance of seizing space and reclaiming it for our own ends. What sort of possibilities do occupations open up for both resistive and affirmative politics? What new connections does reclaimed and occupied space enable?

How To Cash Up
Lots of us have been confused about the correct way to handle cash at the Common Place. Now the finance collective have written some simple instructions that should make it clear and simple enough for anyone. If you ever have to cash up, please read these instructions.
 
Please tell everyone about your group

As you can see, we've got a new website. Some of the information here has been written afresh, some has been cobbled together from the old website. What we need now is for all of the user groups, working groups, collectives, etc. to check that there's an accurate item about them. If there isn't, please write one and email it to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
