God Save the Queen
The smutty, punk rock, inked-up shindig you want to be at while the Queen's blowing out her candles.
Overview
What’s a Queen’s birthday long weekend for if not an excuse to throw a big loud party with lots of punk music where everyone sits around giving each other stick 'n’ pokes*?
The Lansdowne have well and truly capitalised on that opportunity, with their long weekend mini festival God Save the Queen (which is just the smutty antidote you need to years of anachronistic colonial rule by one enormously and disproportionately wealthy and powerful stuffy English family over this country, and so many others). A ticket gets you an afternoon and evening of, among lots more, The Snowdroppers’ twangy swampy blues (with just the right amount of harmonica) and The Art’s genre-tipping hard rock.
And when you inevitably find yourself wanting to ink up? (It’s that kind of music, after all.) You won’t have to go far, as King Street Tattoo will be there on the day doing flash tats for cheap. There’s no work on Monday, meaning you’ll have plenty of time to lay in bed and contemplate any regrettable and/or permanent decisions.
*Disclaimer: The King Street folk are licensed professionals with proper equipment. Move along.
