Subsonic - Re-loaded

BACK in the halcyon days of Britpop there was only one place to go on a Friday night for the Medway indie kid about town .
After working all week in some boring old job /school/college, the indie/goth/grunge hordes would make their way to Excalibur's in gillingham and the legend that was SUBSONIC.


A haven for all the mis-shapes and misfits who didnt quite fit in with the "TOWNIE'S" of Gillingham and Chatham you could come and listen to your favourite tunes without the worry of getting your head kicked in just for what you were wearing .
For many of us it was the place where we grew up and found our own identities ,perhaps even planted the seed of what was to be later on in our lives and where we experienced things that would shape the people we are today .
Eventually  like the rest of us ,Subsonic grew up and moved on to other things and new places but in the backs of our minds we would always look back in fondness at those ' Excalibur ' days.
So if your looking to re-live the days back when you didn't have the responsibilities of  mortgages ,children and fitted kitchen's and your biggest worry in life was what you were going to wear out on friday night then the place to be is Krystal's ( formerly the Manor club ) on 1st March 2013 as Dj SUBSONIC himself Kevin Warren presents  Re- loaded , a night of indie and retro classics. So get your D.M's polished and your cord's ironed , lets party like its 1995 and remember the first time again.
