Save Torriano!! SAT 7th Aug

Hi there, due to the success of last weeks charity event where we raised money on behalf of Cancer Research UK, we are hosting yet another charity gig this weekend! We spent merely a couple of hours busking in Spitalfields market last week (legitimately) and our little red bucket reached £135 worth of donations!
We doubled it and donated £270 in total! So major thanks to anyone who came down or passed through and  helped fill the bucket!!

This week tho…. the charity comes a little closer to home….

Our local pub!!!
THE TORRIANO!!

We’re hosting an evening/night and all are welcome to both ‘play and party’
Confirmed acts include TheWinterKicks, TheTorriano’s, Alan Wass, ColourOfSound and a few other individuals and a possible appearance from Pete Doherty!

So if you just fancy helping save an ever dying British culture come along for a few drinks and good times! :)
There will be a BBQ outside, music upstairs, live music downstairs and donation buckets all around!

Suzie the Landlady is only part lease owner and the council are trying to buy everyone out! If they succeed it will become dingy little flats and yet another quality local London pub will bite the dust! So Suzie is trying to raise money to buy out the others and keep the pub alive

Torriano is popular with celebs and locals alike. Great staff, great cocktail pitchers, beers, crepes, BBQ’s, friendly atmosphere, its a winner! It has yet to be ruined by wannabe trendies & celeb chasers (like the Hawley Arms has)

Noel Fielding, Russell Brand, Simon Amstell + many more use it as a warm up venue, Pete Doherty and his droogs, often frequent the venue and last week, Razorlight (minus Johnny) were having a drink and a crepe, ex Happy Mondays Kav is always around and its one of the few bars left in London with regulars that aren’t bearded old guys with dogs on string leads!

The Torrianos will be playing as they are obviously the resident band made up of the Landlay and the bar staff but most important of all….

……….we live next door!!!!!
Hence, we are passionate about keeping our local going!

So if you fancy it come on over this Sat from 4pm ‘ish’ until closing!!!
Big Cheers!
