Part Time Punks: Factory Records Night

Part Time Punks presents Factory Records Night with guest DJ Tim Burgess (of The Charlatans) at the Echo. He'll be spinning Joy Division, New Order, Happy Mondays, and the rest of Tony Wilson’s Factory Records, 1978-92.

Part Time Punks is a club that takes over the Echo every Sunday night. The club is run by Michael Stock - who DJ's, promotes, books bands, project visuals with Samuel Cooper, and posts photos with Dylan Gordon. The night focuses heavily on obscure and classic music coming out of America, the UK and Europe from 1977 to the present: Punk, Post-punk, Punk-funk, New Wave, No Wave, Indie-Pop, Twee, Grunge, Electro, Minimal-Synth, Shoegaze, Baggy, etc.. Bands that are booked to play are mostly up-and-coming and unsigned (from LA and elsewhere); all of whom draw their influences from the same creative pools. The purpose of Part Time Punks is to promote an inclusive atmosphere where you can see, hear and dance to amazing music that you wouldn't hear at your average "indie" club nights...Part Time Punks...and don't the kids just love it?
