Win 2 tickets to Skylarkin
Here’s a tasty little treat for y’all…. Skylarkin Soundsystem has a shindig this Friday and Blunted have 2 tickets to give away! The soundsystem is guaranteed to rock the Cellar to the core as anyone who has seen the Disco Shed or been to one of the nights on the Cowley Road will testify.
Here’s a few words from Skylarkin impresario Count Skylarkin -
With a heavy heart, after six and a half years I have finally taken my regular clubnight off the Cowley Road. However, I promise there are great times to be had for those willing to come trip-trapping over that bridge…
Legendary reggae and soul knees-up packs its bags to become a monthly fixture at Oxford’s leading independent venue. A match made in heaven, but consummated in a rum-soaked vault of seedy vintage glamour.The opening night features a special live set from vagabond jump-blues party-starters HIPBONE SLIM & THE KNEETREMBLERS, plus the inimitable blend of great black music that’s become the night’s trademark - from Count Skylarkin, DJ Indecision and very special guests on the decks. Arrive early!

I heard that Count Skylarkin is a real vampire who lives only by night and has been in Oxford since it was the capital of England. As society changed, the amount of virgins attending Oxford University dropped and he was forced into a career change. He couldn’t work in an office as the sunlight would kill him, and after trying various shelf packing jobs at all the major supermarkets Skylarkin had reached a brick wall. Drowning his sorrows in the Hi Lo’s Jamaican bar Skylarkin watched across the room at a big Jamaican man with a pipe in his mouth. He was rocking the party on the decks and girls were flocking around him. Skylarkin noticed that if he could DJ he wouldn’t have to try and climb through gated windows in the grounds of Oxford University to drink virgins’ blood. He also noticed that there was a new breed of virgins in Cowley. More orange, more backcombed and more money than the previous and instead of breaking into their halls they would seek you out if you were a DJ. After these revelations were revealed to him Skylarkin re-invented himself as a DJ and has been drinking virgins blood ever since. The end……………
