Halloween rock and alternative disco with DJs Dave and Andy at 7even, in the tradition of the former Ignition club.
7even is hosting a Halloween Rock Day Disco on Saturday 31 October, with DJs Dave and Andy taking the decks. It's a daytime one, running from 3pm to 8pm, so you're in and out well before the night really gets going.
If you've been around the city's rock scene for a while, the night will ring a bell. It draws on the legacy of Ignition, the club that brought rock and alternative nights to Sunderland from 2000 to 2009. For nearly a decade, that was the go-to spot for the kind of music that didn't usually get its own room in town, and this disco is a nod back to those years. If you spent your weekends there back then, this is a chance to get back into that sound.
Dave and Andy are the ones on the decks, and the whole thing is built around the rock and alternative records that defined the Ignition era. It's a disco, not a live gig, so the focus is on the DJs spinning through the years rather than a band on stage. With the Halloween theme on top, it's as much about the costumes as the music, so if you've got something sorted for the day, this is a good place to wear it.
