Beck Tribute Night - Where It Was At!

Now approaching its ninth year, the Tribute Night train rattles on through the sprawling, awe-inspiring landscape of popular music.  The most recent night, on Friday 7 November, was devoted to the postmodern eclecticism of Beck, from soul prankster to melancholic troubadour and all stops in between.  The evening showcased a perfectly astonishing array of performances, approaches and interpretations and took in along the way an illuminating variety of Beck's songs.  Quite right too.  Enormous thanks to everyone who came, performed, ran around fixing temperamental connections to laptops, samplers and Nintendo DSs, donated, collected donations, served drinks, bought drinks, applauded, enjoyed and in any way contributed to another memorable Tribute Night.  Bravo!

That's it for Tribute Night in 2014.  The next night will be on Friday 6 February 2015 when we’ll be throwing ourselves into a state of T-Rexstacy and celebrating the songs of Marc Bolan, from mystical flower child to electric glam warrior.
