F*ck the royal wedding with an Offline anti-royal wedding special! BARKING BATERIA samba drummers beating the death march for William and Kate, The Actionettes performing some extra special go-go ZOMBIE BRIDE moves, SIMON SUBVERT the spooky magician making the royal family disappear IN FRONT OF YOUR VERY OWN EYES and the return of trash garage rockers DR VAMPIRE playing live, VIC LAMBRUSCO busting some rhymes, plus there'll be special guests, great DJs, anarchist bunting, protest movies and more.
Don't miss this one! An electrifying feast of dancefloor-erupting Brazilian samba, delivered in a unique Bhangra, Funk and Drum 'n' Bass style will turn the club into an instant Brixton carnival. Expect up to 40 drummers and get ready to shake your booty harder than it's ever been shaken before - they tore the place apart when they played Offline's launch party!
A ballroom blitzkrieg of shimmying, sparkling, synchronised routines from this all-girl dance troupe, kicking their shiny white boots to 60s girl group classics.
As seen on Charlie Brooker's TV show and BBC2's Culture Show, these stars of Ladyfest 2008 are not to be missed!
"With each shake of the hips, the smiles get wider..." The Independent
They're back for more! Wild surf'n'grind!
Dr Vampire are on the scene, raising hell and raining trashy, surfed up havoc on every innocent bystander in sight. Fuzz is their god, and Rock 'n' Roll is the law they live by. They're also the inventors of the latest dance craze not sweeping the nation - the Wolfman Stomp! Featuring twanging guitar, throbbing organ, pounding drums, and grinding bass - now with added insane vocals!!!

We'll also have a full crew of hard-drinking Offline regulars throwing down a top selection of tunes, including:
EDITOR (urban75)
An ale-fuelled onslaught of ska, punk, rock'n'roll, big band, rockabilly, Mrs Mills & Liberace in a floor stomping package proving that drinking'n'DJing can be a perilous trade.
IANW (How Does It Feel To Be Loved)
Head honcho of legendary indie-soul club How Does It Feel To Be Loved will be slamming down theindie pop, northern soul, tamla motown, girl groups, and sixties heartbreak.
ASTRID ACTIONETTE
Big 50s and 60s tunes from the Actionette superstar!
NIPSLA (Falling over studios)
Packing more pop than a Rice Krispies factory, Nipsla's DJ bag is a veritable jumble sale of joy, overflowing with indie, dance, electro and party tunes.
BARON BOBBY BAUHAUS (charcoal soul)
More mysterious than Robert Smith's eyeliner bag, Bobby gets dancefloors rocking with quirky, darkside indie-pop and kohl-smudging breakbeats.
