We are so happy that Live/Wire - The AC/DC Show have agreed to return, they seem to like us. This gig sold out last time and every time we had them in our excellent venue.

They were without doubt one of the best bands we have ever had on so we just had to have them back so sample that atmosphere all over again.

The band deliver a High Voltage two hour rock ’n’ roll set with a full bank of Marshall amps but a journey that takes fans from one of the best-selling albums of all time ‘Back in Black’ through to the 2020 release ‘PWR UP’, with a healthy dose of the classics from the Bon Scott era.

Please note that Dave Sweetmore can not unfortunately Dj for us this time. However we are lucky enough to have classic rock Dj Paul Walker, playing before and after the gig too, what's not to like.

Tickets available at -
Suki's Wardrobe, Inner Space Records + Uppermill Post Office

Here are a couple of PoP uPs recent weekly musical adventures. The Bluetones at the brilliant Taylor’s Shure 5 Studios - Rehearsal Rooms & Live Venue. We are very lucky to have this incredible venue in Oldham. Check them out for more great intimate gigs like this.
We also really enjoyed Adult DVD and Yellow Arch Studios, Sheffield.

Big thanks to everyone that came out to the sold out Stax show, what a great atmosphere you created in our wonderful civic hall, you have to say that Dave Sweetmore smashed it, as ever.
What is there to say about Stax of Soul UK, they just seem to get better and better and it was a high bar to start with. Let's hope we can do it all again next year.

Next up I'm helping out with the always brilliant Threetles Christmas bash on 13th Dec. Tickets 07522351106
