So will be carrying on again next month - July 29th.
Hope anyone who came had a good time!

Well, all good things have to come to an end sometime and it is now that we feel its the time for The Dirty Hearts Club to make a change from its current format as a weekly event.
The last Dirty Hearts Club weekly Thursday will be on the Thursday 25th August. However, its not the end quite yet - Its merely time to change things up somewhat. Rather than make a commitment to a weekly party, the DHC will be now take place as an occasional special event at Snafu on a weekend night.
I feel weve done exceptionally well to keep the night going as long as it has in its current format. Considering that when we started (over 5 years ago) we didnt really have a plan, aside from the ethos of putting on good bands and playing good music its been a big success. Originally it was the brainchild of a few people coming together - namely the Snafu gang, Nick Mailer, Euan Duncan and myself. Over time the night grew from its small beginnings to being a bit of a monster which regularly would be sold out to capacity by 12am. Along the way the night has showcased some amazing guests who these days you'd pay a lot more than 3 to see and likely in a much bigger venue - we could list them all but there are too many highlights to mention.
For a long time the club-night was likely responsible for a lot of Friday morning sickies and employee lateness in the city - I'm quite proud of that. The current climate of nightlife options consist of a selection of fun pubs, novelty nights, chain clubs, gimmick nights, music with autotuned vocals from iPod djs, over-priced drinks and costly entry fees - Im absolutely sure Dirty Hearts Club will continue to provide a fresh alternative it will just be on a less regular basis, with more guests and at a weekend - all the better for everyone.
Thanks to all the bands and guest DJs who have played and everyone who has supported the night over the years. Id like to thank Snafu, and in particular its staff for supporting the night for so long. Snafu is an absolute diamond in the rough in this city and I think the scale of how good the guests they manage to get to our tiny city and the effort it takes is quite often under-appreciated.
Obviously, its not over yet - so we hope to see you all on the dancefloor on the Thursdays we have left! Lets make the last ones up to the 25th August are all belters and well also see you at the new night once the details and date is announced!
If your band would like to play a remaining Thursday DHC - get in touch via email.

Hi guys,
We are holding a party on Friday 17th June to celebrate the release of The Deportees new single I Lost Her To The Sea/When The Roses Bloom Again (to be released on 4 July)
Describing their music as a bit folk, a bit rock, a bit country and a bit pop, the Aberdeen quintet aim to make romantic, but not sentimental music that is as much informed by contemporary Americana and indie-rock as it is by the timelessness of Celtic folk.
Also on the bill are Forres indie-popsters Be Like Pablo and our very own Steven Milne (with full band in tow), while DJs from the label will ensure things go on way past bedtime.
Friday 17th June
@ The Tunnels
8pm doors (open till 3am)
