About the venue
Camden Barfly
Capacity: 200
Nearest tubes: Camden or Chalk Farm Road
The Barfly club used to be at a tiny venue called the Falcon. The Monarch, where it is housed now, isn't an awful lot bigger. Well, the bar is. You will enter a bar and then have to climb some stairs to get to see the bands, so god help you if you're drunk. There is a small bar upstairs too. Be warned: pints cost £3 at the weekend.
Has seen recent secret gigs by JJ72 and Puressence. Also played host to The Barfly Sessions (Channel 4 TV) and Coldplay played among others. Grrrate.
Every small band wants to play here. On a good night, the sound is great and there will be a decent atmosphere. Can get really stuffy and cramped on a busy night though.
You will get your hand stamped with INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH ink when you enter. This will not wash off for at least a week, so you might get away without paying again in that time. ;-)
About the artists
Popular Workshop
Formed in January 2005 through an ad on DiS. They've been rehearsing since at Enterprise Studios on Denmark Place and drinking at The George across the road or the Jack Horner down Tottenham Court Road - inspired by many-a-band to make propulsive fucked-up unhinged beautiful pop music - named after Atelier Populaire - be realistic, demand the impossible - guitars fly - drums collapse...»

"Twat rock" say Artrocker.
Fast, brilliantly stupidly clever punk rock music from Bristol. Debut album Pegasus Bridge features such wonderful titles as 'God Bless The 1980s' and 'Coked-Up Supermodels Licking Shit Off A Blind Vicar's Cock'. Savoury...
There's not really a space in their name, y'know, but we need to add one cos of the site design... sorry
