*HELLO, HELLO, IT’S GOOD TO BE BACK!*
Finished mourning the death of SB yet? Good. Because we’ve got some fantastic news for all of you who have been craving a fix of glittered-up drunken rock‘n‘roll action. Stay Beautiful is coming back to the Purple Turtle on
FRIDAY 23rd APRIL for a one-off
NINE YEAR REUNION PARTY! Mark it in your diary now, spread the word to all your friends, and start planning your most dazzling outfit for the occasion. We can’t wait to see you all again!
*TELL ME ABOUT THE LADYNOiSE…*
Our live band this month are tranny trash-punk trio
LADYNOiSE (
www. myspace.com/ladynoiseuk ), comprising The Brass, Lady Frog, and a certain Paul St Paul, who have been terrorising the London scene in hit-and-run attacks for several months in hit-and-run attacks. In their own words: “Lurking down the backstreets of aborted scientific experiments in gender lie the seething and rotting Riot T-Grrrls. These Renegade Messes! These Pansy Pariahs! They are outlawed in hardcore countries, shunned and spat on in softcore countries: fucked up by doctors, locked up by judges, puked on by punks, punched by faghags, queerbashed by the queers, and left to die by the straights. But they are crawling out from your prisons, your swamps and your sewers, and into your cozy sleepwalking lazy worlds of numbed pain. They are your embarrassment and shame coming back to haunt you. You are not safe! There's no place to hide. LADYNOiSE have arrived and they want REVENGE!”
*HERE WE ARE NOW, ENTERTAINERS…*
As well as our live band, there will of course be six hours’ worth of killer tunes from Stay Beautiful’s regular DJs,
CHERRY FOXXX,
SIMON PRICE and
DAVID RYDER PRANGLEY. (Tony Maggs is unfortunately detained on the other side of the planet, but he’ll be with us in spirit.) And you
know you can rely on us to rock the partay.
*CHEAP BOOZE, FREE BOOZE!*
Drinks at the Purple Turtle are, you'll be glad to hear, served at pretty reasonable, pubby prices anyway (certainly compared to one or two of our previous homes). And, to set you on your way towards alcoholic oblivion, we have an amazing
HAPPY HOUR from
9pm-10pm! The frankly irresistible deal is
2-FOR-1 on Fosters, Strongbow, Bells/Gordons/Bacardi Oro/house vodka (with mixer), and pitchers of Jesus Juice. What's
JESUS JUICE, we hear you ask? Named, of course, after one of the more controversial rumours about the deceased King Of Pop, it's a cocktail served exclusively at Stay Beautiful - a delicious and potentially head-fvcking blend of vodka, Archers, cranberry, lemonade and fresh lime - at
£8.50 per pitcher ALL NIGHT (a wide variety of other cocktails will be served at a tenner per pitcher). Furthermore, as aficionados of messy vodka-guzzling will be aware, Stay Beautiful has a somewhat notorious tradition called the
WATERING CAN SONG...
*ISN’T IT NICE, SUGAR AND SPICE…*
…and from now until the end of time, there will be one and only one Watering Can Song. It’s the unofficial Stay Beautiful national anthem,
“SEX DWARF” by
SOFT CELL. The ever-changing Watering Can Song in ye olden days just seemed to confuse people, and “Sex Dwarf” is the song that gave us our slogan “luring disco dollies to a life of vice”, so we’ve smashed the proverbial Hiroshima watch at that exact moment, as it were, and it’ll never change. So, whenever you hear Dave Ball’s sleazy synths and Marc Almond’s perved-up vocals, you know it's time to get wet!
*ADMISSION NOW A QUID CHEAPER!*
In recognition of the recession and everyone‘s general skintness, we’re lowering our standard admission by a quid. So, prices are now as follows. Standard price is
£6 (i.e. if you can‘t even be bothered to print out a flyer, bring some sort of concessionary ID, or wear an SB badge). However, if you come with a flyer (printable version
www.staybeautifulclub.co.uk/eflyer.jpg ), NUS/DSS card or a Stay Beautiful badge, it's just
£5 ALL NIGHT! And for very early birds, regardless of flyers etc, it's just
£4 BEFORE 10.00pm!
*WHERE IT'S AT*
Stay Beautiful's home is the
PURPLE TURTLE (
www.purpleturtlebar.com ), 61-65 Crowndale Rd NW1 (for directions and transport information, see our 'Info' page:
www.staybeautifulclub.co.uk/info.htm ), just 1 minute's walk from Mornington Crescent tube (and about 5 minutes from Camden Town.
*OPENING HOURS AND AGE POLICY*

9.00pm and closes at
3.00am. Please note that The Purple Turtle is an over-18s venue and

*WHAT IS STAY BEAUTIFUL?*
Stay Beautiful, a nocturnal refuge for flamboyant freaks and glittery exhibitionists, has been proudly luring disco dollies to a life of vice since 2001. The current DJ team consists of Manics biographer Simon Price, his glamorous grrl sidekick Cherry Foxxx, Rachel Stamp’s David Ryder Prangley and, when he’s not on the other side of the globe, the club’s Shady Mr Big, Tony Maggs, with regular live bands and guest DJs. What will you hear? Think David Bowie, Daisy Chainsaw, Dresden Dolls, Duran Duran, Goldfrapp, Hole, Iggy Pop, Jack Off Jill, Kenickie, Kylie, Lady Gaga, Ladytron, Le Tigre, Manics, Marilyn Manson, New York Dolls, Peaches, Placebo, Prince, Rachel Stamp. Siouxsie, Suede, T. Rex, Patrick Wolf… you get the idea. And if you need a refresher, have a listen to our
SPOTIFY playlist (

*DRESS: UP!*
We encourage: glitter, eyeliner, corsets, feathers, big hair, big heels, lipstick, fishnets, faux fur, ballgowns, latex, flowers, veils, hats, wigs, costumes, dandyism, androgyny, freakishness, flamboyance, self-expression, style. There is no rigorously-enforced dress code as such, but we strongly believe that if you
MAKE AN EFFORT, you‘ll have a better time (and so will everyone else).
