POP! VARSITY SPECIAL feat STAVROS FLATLEY (17/03/2010, 19:00)

Thu, 17 Dec 2009 12:44:08 Z

Ohhhhhh, yes. By the time you're reading this, Warwick will no doubt be well on their way to tanking Cov Uni yet again in today's Varsity Match. They just never learn, do they? As is customary, we like to celebrate with a right old knees-up in the evening, and this year is no exception. In addition to drinks promos galore, as a special treat for St. Paddy's Day we're also shipping in those notorious Lords of the Dance - Stavros Flatley.

When this daft father-and-son act ran on stage at the Hammersmith Apollo for the Britain’s Got Talent auditions, nobody could predict what was to come. They became an overnight sensation, and were many people’s favourite to win the show.

It all started when Demetri owned a Greek restaurant in North London. The food was notoriously bad, but the cabaret performances were legendary! Donning a pair of leather trousers, Demetri and his lad took their act to telly. On Britain's Got Talent they wowed the judges, Simon Cowell admitting they were one of his "favourite ever dance acts". Turning in hilarious, infectious performances of Cry of The Celts, Lord of The Dance and Zorba The Greek, they went on reach the final, with Amanda Holden admitting they were her personal favourites.

With these jokers onboard for the night, things could get silly. Very, very silly...

END OF TERM CHOCOLATE FOAM PARTY (19/03/2010, 22:00)

Mon, 04 Jan 2010 12:40:03 Z

Bosh!

What better way to celebrate the coming of the Easter vacation than with a Chocolate Foam Party?! After years of wrangling with our insurance company ("Rah rah rah, public liability, rah rah..."), the Union will be hosting its first-ever Foam Bash on Friday of Week 10.

Make no mistake, this promises to be a good one. Get ready to be coated with a liberal helping of the bubbly stuff while DJs lash out the tunes into the early hours. Then traipse back to your halls and get ready to wake up in a soggy mess when your warden comes banging on the door at 8am sharp. Sorted.

With loads of free chocolate, easter eggs, and chocolate-scented foam frothing its way in your direction, this 'eggcellent' event will 'eggcite' you to the 'eggstreme'! [Get out - S.U. Pun Editor]

uLive presents EXAMPLE (11/05/2010, 19:30)

Wed, 10 Feb 2010 14:38:34 Z

Having already killed the crowd with the 'demonic overground club smash' (Sunday Times Culture) Hooligans and crossover Top 20 hit (and Radio 1 A-listed) single Watch The Sun Come Up, man of the moment EXAMPLE returns with an infectious new single Won't Go Quietly and forthcoming UK Tour.

Summer 2009 saw the explosive arrival of Example (Elliot Gleave to his friends and family) with his highly original take on life and a unique and musical style that is the thrilling collision of underground and overground.

Won't Go Quietly follows Watch The Sun Come Up as another scintillating slice of modern pop with edge about an obsessive relationship and underlines Example's status as one of the freshest new voices around.
