FAB & Bath Fringe

It's the night all the FAB art shows open in town - several of them in Walcot Street - and artists like a drink, something to look at, and a dance as much as anyone else does. And here's where they'll be doing it. There will be entertainment and a DJ; when we know more we'll tell you all about it. More info and booking...

Widcombe Social Club

Price: £6 on the door
Start time: 20:00

Asteroid Deluxe

plus ARCC

Asteroid Deluxe are making a name for themselves playing warped-out music to soundtrack warped-out movies. Their recent rendition of 'The Holy Mountain' in Bristol sold out in a flash. Their psych/prog is reassuringly epic and dazzlingly played. Fantastic Planet is a sci-fi animation from 1973 with surreal and mesmerising psychedelic imagery.
ARCC are a Bath-based impro-to-film collective. More info and booking...

Green Park Station

Price: Free
Start time: 17:00

Urban Playground & Friends

The Community Show

See Saturday 28th for details of the main show: but this version is extended by the addition of performers from the community (especially along the line of the old Somerset & Dorset Railway which started here in Green Park Station) who have been working with either the Urban Playground Team or Bath's own Natural Theatre.

Extra info: The event begins at 5pm but there will be music and other performance during the evening so don't worry if - like the train - you may be running late.

Taking a Tune for a Walk Part 2

Rock of eye are Alex Vann (Spiro, Three Cane Whale) with Ron Phelan and Madame Ceski. The name is a tailoring term signifying to be guided by the eye, to do by feel and intuition rather than by precise methods.
They are an extraordinary improvising folk-based acoustic experience.

This show is the conclusion to 'Taking a Tune for a Walk', which precedes it, and participants on the walk will be admitted before additional tickets are sold (see online in the days before the event). More info and booking...

Motley crew originally defined by use of folk instruments, dressing up, and a sense of humour, have gone through a musical transformation, bringing in groove, electronic & psych influences, whilst retaining the eclecticism, and, luckily, the humour. You won’t find one of these anywhere else in this programme so better get to this one. More info and booking...

Bath Comedy presents

Legendary, captivating and unclassifiably funny, and somehow danceable festival band

Mik Artistik's Ego Trip are genuinely delightful, funny, frightening, and indefinable. They have achieved an enviable reputation at many of the major UK festivals.

"What would life be for me without Mik Artistik? Well, smaller, and not as much fun" - Iggy Pop

"My favourite band on the planet" - Martin Parr More info and booking...
