It’s impossible to imagine Liverpool if the Cavern, the Timepiece, Erics, the State, and Cream had never existed. We’d have to re-write the city’s past, present and future. Those venues, and others nationwide from Victorian music halls to the Marquee, from Hammersmith Palais to the Hacienda, and others in Liverpool – including the Jacaranda, Circus, and the Kazimier – all form part of Dave Haslam’s definitive and captivating new book, ‘Life After Dark: A History of British Nightclubs & Music Venues’.
Join Dave Haslam, with a panel including DJ Steve Proctor (the State), and Revo Ziganda (EVOL) and Marc Jones, co-founder of Liverpool’s massively successful Medication. They’ll be discussing the value of venues, local and nationwide, past and present. Thoughts, memories and questions from the audience are also very welcome at this special event celebrating the history of great gigs and brilliant nights out.
‘Life After Dark’ will be available for sale on the night, and Dave will be available to sign copies.
Tickets for this very special event are £6 (£5 for Loyalty Card holders) and are available in store, by calling 0151 709 9820 or on-line via waterstones.com/events.
