▲▼▲▼▲▼▲▼ BORING BITS ▲▼▲▼▲▼▲▼



Bring ID: Even if you were around for the 1st Swing scene in the 1930's bring ID, it's condition of the Uni who own the property PT leases, you're entering a private bit of the Uni.



Making requests: No requests, these guys are DJ's not jukeboxes and if you make a really terrible request you'll be force fed to Justin Beiber after we've starved him for days on nothing but Meth.



Respect those in fancy dress, some people might be dressed a bit naughty like something out of the Moulin Rouge, being a perv or slimey bugger will result in you getting kicked out of the venue without a warning



See you on the dance floor chaps! [|:)
