Official Freshers Week Event List, 2008!

They are sometimes on at ONANON throughout the year. I checked and there are no premiership fixtures for that day

silent disco?

No music blaring through speakers, but you dance to your own (or a supplied) MP3 player/CD Player or something.

You don't dance to an MP3, you get a set of wireless headphones and theres two DJS and you tune into whichever one you want to listen to.

any chance of a bashment night/set?

Its probably going to be arranged; I think the line-up is kinda deceiving a bit as its all student-y stuff, but I'm sure it'll be more "mixed-up" than last year.

I'm actually praying at night YoungMan has quit DJing

RnB... every.... night.... >.< Looks like i shall havta search elsewhere for my musical entertainment in freshers.

I wrote to the SU the other day complaining that, once again, the spectrum of events was far too narrow. I doubt they'll listen, they never do, but it was worth a try!

what is the trafic lights?

and by the way, what if i will not have any flatmates? (I am stayin at home)

They're just targetting a common-demographic, as the SU itself needs to be able to guarantee sales of tickets, and attendees.

Join the group on Facebook, and write a message on the wall stating what you'd like to see.

The Ents Officer is an event Organiser for a Promotions Company anyway, so he could always arrange something else (although not sure if possible in the middle of freshers week).

Who is our Ents officer?

Ahhhhh cool, I am a member of that group and about 5 others lol.

There's loads of DnB nights around London anyway, 2 of my flatmates last year were always going to them...there are quite a lot of DnB heads at QM too.

I know there are loads of dnb nights in London (being a londoner myself and attending them regularly already) but the reason i'm miffed is because it makes it alot harder for me and others not into as mainstream genres to make friends in freshers, or atleast lasting friends (not the case for everyone but music taste is a big factor for me). I just think its unfair to overrepresent one genre so much and leave so many genres with no exposure at all, especially in a london uni.

But aslong as there are dnb heads to find i shall be a happy happy man, tis just a shame that i won't enjoy most fresher events (rnb really really gets to me >.<) and i'll havta pay alot more going to other nights on a tight budget as it is. (eeep didnt realise that had become such a rant... /endrant)
