Trash o Rama

Trash o Rama

More Info "Blood does more than turn me on, Mr. Vader.

It makes me come. 

And more than the sight of it, I love the taste of it.

The taste of hot, freshly killed blood...Kill everyone now!

Condone first degree murder!

...Advocate cannibalism! 

Eat shit! 

Filth are my politics! 

Filth is my life! 

Take whatever you like"

- Divine/Babs Johnson - Pink Flamingos 1972

This March Baltimore comes to Manchester as the filthiest people alive Trash-O-Rama (CITYLIFE BEST ALT CLUB 2010/11) relaunch as a regular club night at the suitably trashy Legends on Whitworth Street in Manchester (home to Homoelectric, Bollox, Twisted Wheel etc)

The relaunch party will be a call to all you misfits, perverts and weirdos to dress up as your favourite characters from the movies of the Pope Of Trash John Waters!!

Dressing up is not compulsory but is desirable as the best dressed attendees will become the proud owner of some exclusive prizes - shit sandwich anyone??

You can be Divine, John Waters, Crybaby Walker, Miss Edie, Wanda Woodward, Cookie, Crackers, Pepper Walker, Mr Pinky, Connie Marble, Velma Von Tussle, Princess Coo Coo, Beverly Sutphin, Cecil B Demented, Little Chrissy, Memama. Sylvia Stickles, Caprice Stickles, Pecker etc - the list is endless so get your thinking caps on!! The more obscure the better - think Willem Dafoes hateful prison guard from Crybaby, the lobster from Multiple Maniacs, The Boston Footstomper from Polyester or members of L7s fictional band Camel Lips from Serial Mom!!

Music will be provided by Trash-O-Rama DJs Polly Esther & Johnny Trash playing all the best hits from the movie soundtracks as well as the usual blend of music you`ve been accustomed to during their residencies at Homoelectric and Bollox!! 

Plus a very, very special DJ set from our partner in Trash the legendary Bruce LaBruce musical collaborator (LA Zombie & Otto) and former Homoelectric & Terrorist resident Kev Beard - Too Queer For The Queers, Too Punk For The Punks!!

We will also have :

Cult TV and movie projections!!

The Pelt Room and Fudge Palace from Pecker - no tea bagging!!

The Egg Lady`s playpen!!

Candid photography c/o Pecker!!

The Corny Collins Show/Record Hop DJ booth!!

Hostesses with free shots, treats and edible dog turds!!

And lots more TBC, keep checking for updates!!
