SATURDAY OCTOBER 5
Moscow Drug Club
The new, all-improved, pneumonia-free, and darkly comic Moscow Drug Club are back in the village on October 5.
‘Our last attempt to book MDC had to be postponed due to Katya falling ill,' says Roger Smith. ‘But I'm happy to say that everything is now back to normal. They're looking forward to playing us songs from their new album, Angels and Men, as well as some of their old favourites.'
The band - who have played all over the UK, in places as diverse as the Edinburgh Jazz Festival, WOMAD, the Royal Albert Hall, and Sheepscombe - describe themselves as ‘a curious musical place where elements of Berlin Cabaret, Hot Club de France, Nuevo Tango and Gypsy Campfire meet, have a few drinks, and stagger arm-in-arm into the darkness of an eastern European cobbled street on a mission to find the bar where Django Reinhardt and Tom Waits are having an after hours jam'.
Always good value, they combine original material with songs by the likes of Jaques Brel, Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits and Bertolt Brecht to provide an intoxicating and intimate musical experience.
Where: Bisley Village Hall
When: Saturday October 5 - doors open at 7pm, music from 8pm.
How much: Tickets £12.50 each from George Stores.

B.A.T.S. Audition
Bisley Amateur Theatrical Society is back with another panto - this time it's The Pied Piper.
Budding and aspiring thespians and helpers are needed!
No acting experience is necessary - though it is obviously welcome - and there are roles of all shapes and sizes.
The panto is always tremendous fun, and it offers a great way for new villagers to make friends.

When: 6.15pm to 7pm under-16s / 7.15pm to 8pm over-16s
