Scenes from East London’s Pink Glove Queer Pulp Disco with The Actionettes onstage

On Saturday night, there was a feast of Pulp songs on offer in East London, plus a high-energy, Pulp tribute go-go dance routine by The Actionettes.

Taking place in the backroom of the rather splendid Victoria pub at 451 Queensbridge Road, E8, the evening saw a packed dance floor throwing their arms in the air to a classic selection of indie mighty hits.

Headlining the night was south London’s The Actionettes. Here they are captured backstage, where the Cava flowed.

After a slightly chaotic introduction, the dancers were ready to strut their stuff to Pulp’s finest.  Here’s some photos of the action:

There was only one song that Actionettes could end on, and it’s one of the best songs ever written: Pulp’s Common People.
