Alls well that starts well.

So the party was totally unbelievably storming.

A fittingly joyous way to celebrate a joyous zine.

Photos and videos soon, plus a special South African music post thanks to our good friend

DJ Aberdnigo, who span some on the night.

Excitingly, its all up online now-

Thats the readable one, just goes through it in order.

But we would strongly emplore you to download these two, the outside and inside pages,

then print them off and distribute! The two files means you can print it out well easy on back to back pages.

Be sure to put your own cover on it, we had some amazing ones at the launch.

This friday is effectively the biggest bang since the big bang.
But instead of cosmic dust, we shall be scattering illegally photocopied yet beautiful fragments of DIY paper joy... namely... Issue 1 of Claptrap zine.

This will be a momentous moment in the history of everything interesting, although the abundance of wonderful organic ale may mean that none of us will be able to actually recount it.
We are of course completely stoked to be sharing this launch of goodness with those wonderful Buen Chico types. huzzah.

But yes, do come join us.
It shall be quite the party,
heres the crack-



Buen Chico
launch ace new album ‘Our Love’s Enormous’
-Our favorite Leeds band, fuzzy surf-pop to make limbs flail-

With support from-

Spodni Pradlo
- a Smörgåsbord of danceable noise from all over the universe-

And
Monty Casino
-perhaps the last chance (seriously saddening I know) to see everyone’s favourite Bradford 3 piece- all witticisms, power riffs and flexed muscle.

Then DJs-
Willy Nilly (anything and everything, riot grrrl to RAWRR hardcore), Viruss (genius Drum and Bass, Dubstep and Jungle), Jon Jones and the Beatniks Movement DJs (fist pumping rock and roll, 60s garage and psych), Outlive DJs (Afro-Beat, D.I.S.C.O, Grime and WOBBLY Bassliiine, etc etc etc)

+ Free shop prep, lovely food, cakes, dressing up, freebies and the best organic local ale about.

Only £2 in,
Or £1.50 for 1in12 members and substantial beards (fake or real).

Plus the chance to see for the first time-
Claptrap Zine a new DIY, old school zine- a eulogy to Bradford and to alternative ways of living.
Its free and beautiful.

Food and planning for next issue of the zine (come with ideas or submissions)
6pm till 8pm

Music and Party
