They’re planning to bring us the best of the Portsmouth live scene along with top quality acts from all over the country.

This is the first of what we hope will be a regular monthly appearance for Club 12th Hour at The Raglan Rooms. The line-up for January:

Jimmy Blake, The Rebel Ching, Del Nil and The Elements, with DJs Psaila and Udy

£5.00 on the door, bar until late. If you want to get in we recommend you come early, as Club 12th Hour have put on some really popular nights in the past, and we expect to be turning people away at the door.

The Mosquitos (no E!) really blew the lid off the Raglan Rooms, playing a fantastic selection of classic rock’n'roll covers.

Meanwhile, Jimmy hosted the Karaoke Party in the main bar, which went down a storm; T.A. Ted took first prize in the fancy dress for his burly fairy - complete with delightful pink tutu and hobnail boots - but all the costumes were great and special thanks go out to everyone who went that extra mile to make this night so memorable.

Jimmy will also be hosting the New Year’s Eve party in the main bar. Free entry, no tickets required, so if you’re in the Portsmouth area please come along and have a great time singing out ‘06 and partying in ‘07.
