In house 80s night

By popular demand (I’m as baffled as you are) we’ve decided to hand our resident DJ No Decks Murphy complete control of the iPad and Sonos system during normal opening hours! Previously only let loose on Sunday evenings (usually well into the early hours), Paul now has the dubious honour of sharing his passion for all things 80s with the rest of us. Expect plenty of sing-alongs, a few forgotten classics and, yes, I can personally guarantee you’ll hear both kinds of music: Country and Western. Requests will happily be accepted. Whether they’re actually played is another matter entirely. In true Paul Murphy fashion, if he doesn’t like your choice, don’t expect to hear it! In all seriousness, it should be a brilliant evening. Dig out your best 80s gear, come along, have a laugh, sing far louder than you should, and help us prove that giving Paul the iPad wasn’t a terrible mistake.
