Renegades of Rage UK + Thieves of the Stone Age (UoN UCU strike fundraiser)

Who better to raise some funds (and noise) for the UCU than your local neighbourhood RATM and QOTSA tributes?

GET READY TO RAGE FOR A REASON! ✊

Nottingham: bring the noise! We are returning for a very special collaboration with our good friends at the Liquid Light Taproom in Sneinton for a massive night of riffs, rebellion, and solidarity!

HEADLINE: RENEGADES OF RAGE UK (RATM TRIBUTE)

Experience the raw power of the UK’s most explosive Rage Against the Machine tribute, with gig and festival experience galore since 2018. From Bombtrack to Bulls on Parade to ... well, you know what... expect a set packed with the anthems you know and love, delivered with the ferocity they deserve.

SPECIAL GUESTS: THIEVES OF THE STONE AGE (QOTSA TRIBUTE)

Kicking off the night are Nottingham’s own Thieves of the Stone Age, bringing that dark sexy desert rock swagger and heavy grooves of QOTSA to the taproom floor.

✊ SOLIDARITY FUNDRAISER

Forget your ordinary gig. This is group therapy through heavy riffs and a collective statement, issued by two passionate local bands wanting to raise their fists and stand in solitary with the workers of the University of Nottingham, many of whom are currently on strike to protect jobs and livelihoods.

100% of proceeds (after standard fees/staffing costs) will be donated directly to the University of Nottingham UCU Local Strike Fund, with both bands agreeing to waiver their usual appearance fees on the night to support their fellow workers. To be totally transparent with you, £4 on the standard ticket will go the UCU fund. Opt for the £8 ticket? Make it a £6 donation. £10? Steady on there, but thanks! That'll be £8 to the coffers, ya legend.

So let's be clear, by buying a ticket you are directly supporting University of Nottingham staff in their fight for fair pay and working conditions in the face of the recently announced cuts and threats of redundancy.
