In December, we'll be skipping the Tuesday Meetup but having a lovely Christmas party with Live Music at the Hope & Anchor Islington.

There's Japanese punk and energetic raw rock from Dawn Tales, Shamisen and guitar along side drums from H2P, and heartwarming 80's classics spun by DJ Mika. Plus addtional guest to be announced adding to the Christmas atmosphere. This should be a lovely night 🎄

This is a ticketed event and very likely to sell out. Tickets available from here, including £8 early bird option:

The Dawn Tales deliver Japanese punk and classic energetic rock with absolute conviction. Always a great live show and pushing things to the edge, this certainly won't be a silent night...:

**H2P**
Featuring Shamisen master Hibiki Ichikawa and Hide "Magic Fingers" Takemoto, known for his amazing flamenco technique, this will be a great match of traditional and modern music. With some classic styles alongside dance and even samba beats, this will be a great mix.
