It’s still very early days yet, so nothing firm, but we’ve had some interest and wondered if it was worth doing.

What do you think?

To celebrate 7 great years of Sin City, we’ve decided to go out with a bang and pay tribute to the club which inspired us to start Sin, and which many of you will also remember: The Banshee

During the mid-late 80′s and into the early 90′s The Banshee on Oxford Road was a mecca for Manchester’s alternative scene. Playing glam & rock upstairs and goth, punk & industrial downstairs, the Bansh’ was a spiritual home for a great many of us, complete with flooded toilets, subsiding dance floors and plenty of nooks and crannies to lose yourself and your not-so-significant other in…

We’ll be playing the usual array of classic Sin tunes mixed in with a wealth of Banshee anthems. You’d be surprised at how much crossover there is… ;)

We’d love to wave Sin good-bye with all our friends, old and new, so do come down and join us, see some old faces, dance like you’re a teenager again, and party like it’s 1989!

Thanks,
Team Sin

Last ever Sin City & Banshee Reunion!
Friday 5th December 2008 / 9pm – 3am / £4 on the door
