Flourescent Adolescent: Arctic Monkeys Appreciation Night

Overview

The northern British city of Sheffield has given the music world many gifts, but for the last decade, one band has sat at the top at the heap. The Arctic Monkeys got toes tapping with the fastest selling debut album in UK chart history, and kept oozing out indie-rock tunes across four more albums. You own their records. You saw their shows. If you lived in Brisbane last time they came to town, you were probably there when the PA system stopped working but Alex Turner kept singing.

Now, you can head to the Empire Hotel for an evening dedicated to loving everyone's favourite Yorkshire group. With the band still on hiatus since their 2014 tour, it's the only kind of Arctic Monkeys-focused communal experience you can have when they're not playing live gigs.

Taking their advice, snapping out of your everyday life and putting on your dancing shoes for a piledriver waltz or two of is recommended, because the bulk of their tracks will get a spin over the course of the evening. That's what happens when Bistrotheque put on an appreciation night, after all. With picks this good, here's hoping for more tributes to come in the future.
