Over-30s indie party with DJs from Feeling Gloomy and Old School Indie playing indie classics from the 70s to the 2000s at The Welly Club.
An Afternoon of Indie comes to The Welly Club on Saturday 28 November, from 3pm to 7pm. It's part of what's billed as the UK's biggest indie party, which runs across 17 cities on the same day, with the Hull leg teaming up with Feeling Gloomy and Age Against The Machine to fill the floor with indie classics from across the decades.
The DJs are from Feeling Gloomy and Old School Indie, and the set reaches back further than you might expect. It starts with 70s punk and 80s new wave, moves through 90s Britpop and into the early 00s, and pulls from a wide spread of names: Bowie, Pulp, the Clash and the Jam, alongside the Stone Roses, the Smiths, New Order, the Strokes, Franz Ferdinand, the Killers, Blur, Nirvana and Radiohead. There's rock n' roll, soul, northern soul and ska thrown in too, so it's not just the guitar bands.

The Welly Club itself is a Hull institution, the city's legendary alternative night club and live venue, trading for more than 100 years. It runs weekly nights across three rooms, with a hidden 'Pub in a Club' called Mrs. Wilson's, named after the woman who ran the place in the early 1960s. The party wraps at 7pm, with the promise of heading to the pub afterwards. There's a strict door policy of no under 30s, so it's an afternoon for the over-30 crowd. It runs from 3pm to 7pm at 105-107 Beverley Rd, Hull HU3 1TS.
