Hi Everyone

First of all, a little thank you from us to everyone who turned up to Club Velocity's birthday party last weekend and made it such a special evening.

This weekend is a little quieter, however, on Friday we bring you something special courtesy of RHAPSODAISICAL

Rhapsodaisical are a Reading-based band playing original songs largely, but not exclusively, from the songwriting partnership of Deb Ferguson and Lawrie Wright. Their debut album, Rhapsodaisically, reflects the influences of the definition-defyingly wide range of the music they love. Every track has its own distinct feel and flavour, yet all are unmistakeably Rhapsodaisical! We're open from 8pm and it'll only cost you £8 (£6 concessions) at the door to get in

On Tuesday, FINCHIES BAR presents PUNCH DRUNK LOVER

Homegrown hiphop from the Rising Sun's coolest artists - Punch Drunk Lover. Think 8-bit hip-hop and glitch beats made using a Nintendo handheld and a looping pedal. "Sweet innit bruv!" (as my Auntie Gladys would've said)

Which reminds me, if you haven't been to Finchies, why not pop down every other Tuesday for great night out?

We're open at 7pm and it's absolutely FREE!

That's everything for another weekend, just to remind you that you can find us at 30 Silver Street, Reading, RG1 2ST (If you put us in your Google or Sat Nav, we shall magically appear)

The Rising Sun is unique in its relationship with volunteering. As most people who visit the centre are aware, we only have 2 part-time paid workers here.
