Shrek tribute night with the eight-piece live show of The Ogretones and DJ Boo-urns, with costume prizes, at The Hairy Dog.
Ogrepalooza comes to The Hairy Dog on Thursday 3 December, with The Ogretones headlining. It's a Shrek tribute night marking 25 years of the first film, and the whole thing runs from 7:00pm to 11:00pm.
The Ogretones are an eight-piece live band, and they describe themselves as the UK's number-one Shrek tribute act. They put Shrek, Fiona, Donkey and friends on stage, and the set covers a fair few of the songs from the films: Smash Mouth, Counting Crows, Ricky Martin, The Proclaimers, Bonnie Tyler, David Bowie, Led Zeppelin and Buzzcocks. Between the live sets, DJ Boo-urns keeps the floor moving with what they call non-stop swamp stompers.
There's a costume element to the night, too. The organisers encourage guests to turn up in costume, and they'll be awarding prizes to the best-dressed. The venue enforces an age restriction, and the whole evening runs for around four hours.
