BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND @ DALSTON SUPERSTORE
Banjee Boy Realness Friday 24th August / 9pm – 3am
Swagger, attitude, and looking like the boy who mugged you. It’s Banjee Boy Realness, the brand new night of ballroom and UK house from Superstore favourite Josh Caffe (Batty Bass) and Joe Robots (DJ Mag/SOS). They’ve brought in special guest Rushmore from House Of Trax to help kick off your bank holiday dancefloor weekend werk-outs. Upstairs sees tranny superstar duo Grizzle (aka John Sizzle and A Man To Pet) joined by It Gurl Jacqui Potato for some outrageous bar-top antics.

Ripped Saturday 25th August / 9pm – 4am
San Francisco disco royalty graces the lazer pit in the form of legendary Steve Fabus who, having cut his teeth at the I-Beam and the Trocadero Transfer in the late ‘70s, is finally in the UK for his actual debut. Also all the way from the west coast is Honey Soundsystem resident Ken Vulsion. With the queer collective’s noted mutual love of indulgent behaviour and hot guys he’ll be right at home in the Superstore basement! And who better than to helm the upstairs bar but Horse Meat’s very own Luke Howard who’ll definitely be taking care of business.
