What you need to know
Computer World (CW) is a monthly club night dedicated to playing the very best of before, during and after the 80s electro pop, new wave and alternative / electronic music, with dashes of disco, punk and goth.....and the odd curveball here and there!
Pump Up The 80s (PUMP) is an occasional all-genres club night celebrating the great, the good and the ever-so-slightly cheesy tunes of the 80s! Whether your bag is Ska, Mod, 2-Tone, Disco, Rock, New Romantic, Goth or Pop, there's guaranteed to be something for everyone!
13 July will be the 40th anniversary of the most remarkable live music event to have ever taken place - LIVE AID. Our July Computer World club session takes place on Saturday the 12th, ending at half midnight on the 13th, which is more than close enough to make this a crossover event with PUMP UP THE 80s, compiling a five hour playlist dedicated to the artists that appeared (and the songs that were played, a mix of live and studio versions) that day. OK, it's true that it lasted considerably longer than we can cover during our five hour session, BUT, we will play at least one dancefloor-friendly track from as many of those artists as possible, and as close as possible to the original running order.....which means that we'll HAVE TO get under way with STATUS QUO!
Join us for this uniquely themed event, combining the very best of our two club nights, paying tribute to the enduring memory of LIVE AID.
80's-style fancy dress not compulsory, but we love seeing the Boy George looky-likeys, Don Jonsons, Top Gun pilots and Freddie Mercurys with hoovers, so it's always encouraged!
Location
The Lawns Social Club
Mary Street, Taunton, Somerset, TA1 3PE United Kingdom
VENUE LOCATION: The Lawns Social Club is located in the heart of Taunton, on the A38, opposite the High Street car park, and a 15 minute walk from the railway station.
ABOUT PARKING: There is a small car park on site, and a much larger public car park directly opposite the venue which is usually free after 6pm (but do check the signage on arrival to verify this). Should you be lucky enough to find a space in the on-site car park, you will be required to enter your registration number on a tablet within 10 minutes of parking up. The tablet is located at the main reception. Failure to do so will incur a hefty fine which we won't be able to overturn!
ABOUT SEATING: Please note that The Lawns Social Club has ample unreserved seating, but purchasing a ticket doesn't guarantee you a seat, so with that in mind you should aim to arrive for the event as early as you possibly can. Exception: we will reserve a seat in advance for the mobility-impaired and wheelchair users, who should contact the organiser (JD Events) immediately upon ticket purchase should a seat or space be required.
FOOD & BEVERAGE AVAILABILITY: The Lawns Social Club offers a full bar service from 6pm, and a range of hot and cold bar snacks and meals. Call them directly nearer the time to inquire about what's on the menu - 07891 996010. Alternatively, there are many restaurant or fast food choices a stone's throw away.
ACCOMMODATION OPTIONS: There are two hotels within a few minutes walk of The Lawns Social Club - 1) The Corner House Hotel, and, 2) The Taunton House Hotel. There are also two Premier Inn hotels within a 5 minute drive.
