Hi Everyone

As Mickey Mouse’s big hand points upwards and Goofy’s tail points downwards, I realise my Rolex is a fake.

It’s also time for another update concerning all things Rising Sun-related, especially all those things happening this weekend…

On Friday we have none other than THE BIG UNTIDY NIGHT OUT

The Big Untidy Night Out specialises in bringing new unusual talent into the Rising Sun.  Singers, songwriters, poets, punk outfits, ambient experimentalists, sensational cellists and demonic banjo-players…the possibilities are endless.

This month's untidy introduces THE BROKEN REBELS, welsomes back the excellent GRANT SHARKEY and ZOE WEST.  Completing the bill is inimitable JOHN FORRESTER

We're open at 8pm and it'll cost you no more than £5 on the door

Finally, on Sunday, MILONGA SIMPATICA presents TANGO SELECT

Reading’s own highly acclaimed tango band are back at the Rising Sun for another afternoon of live tango music. Playing a selection of tangos and vals, some of which you will recognise and others you may not. Tango Select play tracks which are a delight for dancers and great to listen to as well.

We're open from 4.30pm to 8pm.  And it'll cost you £6 on the door

That’s everything for another week, just to remind you that we are, as always, at 30 Silver Street, Reading, RG1 2ST (If you pop it into your satnav or Google, we shall magically appear!)

Have a nice weekend!
