"FUNK AT MCGINTY'S" ON 6TH FEB.......
FunkFest will be taking in a new venue on 6th Feb when we head to The Blue Room, McGinty's to deliver a rare chunk of funk to Ipswich Town Centre. Housework will be playing a full set at this one and I'll be onxe more providing an amazingly funky playlist of tunes when their not onstage. Entry costs just £2 on the door and the funk will start playing at around 8pm. This is a new venue for FunkFest and it would be great if as many people could make it along as possible - that will ensure the nights can be repeated again and again!

...... AND AGAIN ON THE 1ST APRIL (THE DAY BEFORE GOOD FRIDAY)
Traditionally one of the busiest pub nights in Ipswich but the place to be - The Blue Room at McGinty's - only has a capacity of 80 so get there early to avoid disappointment! Small Town Bullies - as previously mentioned, the funkiest band in East Anglia and without doubt one of the most entertaining - will be playing for over an hour and a half at this one. Again, loads of the best funk music playing when they're not on. Entry £4 on the door and things get underway around 7.30pmish.
