NOISY BOXES!  FLASHING LIGHTS!  POP TUNES BY THE BEAT COMBOS OF YESTERDAY, TODAY AND TOMORROW!  PUB PRICES!  SEXY BAR STAFF!  EVEN THE BLOKES!  So ... you already know Up The Racket has been running the best New Year's Eve nights since whenever; only this year in a bigger brigher space!  With lots of comfy seating, two bars so you don't have to wait forever get served,  enormous dance floor so you can throw 'yer shapes and, of course, that fantastic Duchess atmosphere entirely free of well, you know, u.n.d.e.s.i.r.a.b.l.e.s.  And this year it's a straight fight between indie electro rock'n'roll explosion Up The Racket and Popaganda, the area's only guilty pleasures event where it's OK to play Wild Cherry, Pendulum, Fall Out Boy and Johnny Cash on the same night.  And, yes yes yes,  the odd rock anthem here and there ...  As usual, it's a paltry £6 advance and just £8 on the door if we're not already sold out. It's true there are cheaper New Years Eve nights but nothing really matches up to The Duchess and as always ya gets what ya pays for ... !!  Doors open 10pm; last entry 1.30am; bedtime 3am.  This is an 18+ event.
