For clarification, Midian this month is on Fri 28th April:
Further  to this post I can announce that our first victim, ahem, guest to take us up on the offer of trying out DJing is Miss Sophie ( [profile] kudarizaka ). So please do your best to arrive early to support her. We've decided not to open for 8pm, but to remain at our usual opening time of 9pm. With the move proper to Fridays from now on, it makes more sense for those travelling after work etc. So Sophie will be guest DJing on Friday 28th April @ Midian. She'll be DJing from 9pm-10pm. If anyone else fancies having a go, then please get in touch with us in the usual ways. We want to give peeps the chance of at least having a go at DJing, as it's jolly well good fun ;)

Whitby?

'Lo all,
Are there any kindly bods from around here (north west) going to Whiters this April? If so, would any of you have room in your suitcases/rucksacks/coffins for some Midian flyers? We'd really appreciate it if someone would put a few flyers around for us. In exchange, you'd get free entry next Midian, and our gratitude.

If anyone would be up for helping, please leave a comment here, or e-mail me:
sistercarrion[at]midian[dot]org[dot]org[dot]uk

Cheers

Unfortunatly DJ Psychomagnet will be unable to make Midian this month due to car problems. This makes this post all the more important. If anyone can help us out setting up, helping J look after the door etc, we can give free entry, and our gratitude in exchange.

cheers

Requests??

I know I'm starting a bit early here, but I'm mid-Spring sortout of my
CDs, and thought this may be a pertinent time to ask for some
requests. I know there's times at both Midian and Carrion Screaming,
when someone has mentioned an artist or track, and I know I have it
somewhere, but haven't been able to find it in time to play. If I have
advance warning, maybe i'll find it!!

I'm also in the middle of a CD buying frenzy (when am i not?!), so now
is the ideal time for artists you want to hear played, but don't think
i have in my collection. Bear in mind the music remit of both nights
when choosing though!

Annnnddd go!

Tomorrow night (ie This Friday) is of course Midian @ Bar De Mille. For more details of where/when/what etc to be found on the homepage of this Yahoo! group, or the Midian website: http://midian.org.uk

In honour of one of our long-standing stalwarts, Paul who is soon to be heading for Welshy parts (missus!), we've decided to have an impromtu Pirate Party. Yah Harr mateys!

Fancy dress is by no means necessary or compulsory, but feel free to join in the fun if you feel like it. We'll also be playing a few themed songs :)

Any advance music requests as usual are more than welcome, either here, or via our Livejournal at: http://community.livejournal.com/midiangothic/

There'll also be a slight change in the DJ line-up for tomorrow night. Simon (Psychomagnet) sadly can't make it, and so the gorgeous Miss 616 from Dark-cide in Preston will be helping us out wid da' tunes.

So we really hope you can all make it out and about, please spread the word. We love this new venue, and really want to be able to keep booking it on weekend nights.

Incidently, if you have a favourite tipple that they don't seem to have currently behind the bar, please ask the really friendly bar staff about the possibility of getting it in future. They have been able to do this in other cases, and it's always worth asking ;)

Any music requests guys?

Carrion Screaming returns to the building it started in! Now held at the Bunker (The old Boothill Saloon) in Birkenhead. The Bunker is on 110 Argyle Street, Birkenhead. Less than 5 mins from Stairways, and Hex, it's about halfway inbetween the two.

Doors 9pm-2am
Entry £3.50
DJ sistercarrion (me!)

Dates for your diary:
Every other Wednesday
Starts on Wednesday 8th Febuary

And then continues on:
Wednesday 22nd Febuary
Wednesday 8th March
Wednesday 22nd March

Now with improved decor, bigger dancefloor area, UV lighting. Local parking, and close links via train, bus and taxi. Music policy of Carrion Screaming is very similar to that of After Dark. It tends to be more 'Music wot goffs like' rather than strictly just goth tunes. We call it dark party music ;) Original and new indie, goth rock, new wave, electro, shock rock, old school industrial, EBM, sp00ky kid, synthpop, riot grrl, goth and alternative, and anything and everything in between. A seamless journey through genres! Hope to see you all soon!

There is now also a more specific Yahoo! group based specifically around the Midian night, but which also mentions other events in the area. Called Midian gothic, it's to be found here:

We welcome cross-promotion, and as such don't mind occasional (text-only) adverts from across the country, to let everyone know what's going on further afield. Feel free to add your event to our calender section. For full details on flyer exchanges for businesses, events, gigs and bands across the goth-related spectrum, or for info about running a stall, please contact us directly at:

Pssst! If you're a member of Netgoth, and are perhaps thinking of coming along to Midian this month.. it'd be much appreciated if you could add your name to the list of those thinking of attending. It's useful for us to see feedback from different types of advertising.

Cheers

'Lo all!
Apple in your ear (Happy New Year) and all that palaver..

Hope you're all recovered from the festive season sufficiently. Well, at long last we have some good news for you. Some of you may know about the problems we've had recently securing dates at Hex since the fire. This is due to the club currently having a 'events' licence, and hence not fully reopen after the fire. We love Hex as a venue, but if they can't provide us with firm dates we can plan for, we have to make the decision to pull out of there. We've long wanted to bring Midian back to Liverpool anyway, and thought this was the ideal opportunity.

After Dark takes a sabbatical for the time being.. but stay tuned for more news on that one later on in the year :)

However, we have found a fab new venue for Midian in the form of Bar De Mille. Whoo, yay etc. Bar De Mille is based very close to the National Express coach station in Liverpool centre, in fact it's right next to it, which means that the Black Cab rank right outside makes it all the easier to get home afterwards. It's also not far from the train stations, and of course the coach station.

For the time being we are moving to the last Saturday of the month, in order to allow people to recoup some of the money they may have spent over the festive period :) Sooo.. details you need to know are as follows:

Midian @
Bar De Mille
14 Fraser Street (Off Islington Street)
Liverpool
L3 8JX

Saturday 28th January
9pm-2am
Entry £3
With your usual Midian reprobates DJs sistercarrion (me!) and Psychomagnet (Simon) providing goth tunes both old and new, industrial, darkwave, EBM, electro, dark 80's, batcave, post punk, and other such dark gems.

I can't wait to get back behind the decks.. it feels like it's been ages.. i've got lots of lovely new tunes to share too!! Yay!

Links, maps etc will shortly be up on the Midian site at: http://www.midian.org.uk

Any extra info, requests etc, can be sent along to me at:
sistercarrion(at)midian(dot)org(dot)uk

Hope to see as many of you along as possible.. I've missed seeing bods.

With two goth nights out coming up in the area over the next few weeks, you lucky lot are spoiled you are.. hee hee!

*sigh*

Really really f*ckin' sorry to land this on people so last minute, but we've franctically been trying to sort out some alternative since we found this out yesterday evening. Basically we are unable to use Hex tonight for either After Dark or Midian. We've been trying to secure another venue, but with so little notice to work with this has proved impossible. The venue we were looking at hasn't been able to get back to us, and so we've had to take the decision to cancel for this evening.

Some work that needed to happen to Hex to extend their temporary licence (given after the refurb), has been unable to be completed on time.

I am so so gutted to have to give you guys this news, and sorry to mess everyone around.

Provisionally, myself and Jason are going to try to get across to the Swan this evening for a commiserations based drink. A goth invasion may be a fun idea, so if you'd like to join us, we'd love to see you.

We'll try to sort out something at least socially for December, and we shall return properly in the new year. Please stay tuned for updates as we have them.

Please pass on this info asap to anyone you know who may be planning to come along this evening.

Once again huge apologies.

Hot on the heels of our fabulous VNV Nation gig a few weeks back, we have the final After Dark and Midian clubnights of 2005 on Saturday 10th Dec (tomorrow). Rounding up the hugely entertaining and busy 2005 we have the following:

In the main room:

 After Dark

After Dark covers the best in dark party music.It tends to be more 'music that those goffs like' rather than a straight ahead goth night. It covers elements of dark indie, goth rock, riot grrl, sp00ky kid, old school industrial, new wave, goth and alternative, and anything and everything inbetween. After Dark is run in the upstairs bar of Hex which has 500+ capacity. There's a full dancefloor, lighting, smoke, as well as a bar, lots of seating and a pool table.

In the Black room:

Midian

 Midian is the long-standing Merseyside goth night. It covers goth both old and new, industrial, darkwave, EBM, electro, dark 80's, batcave, post punk, and other such gems. Midian is held in the black room (100+ capacity) at Hex, which has it's own bar, dancefloor, lighting and smoke

Working in both rooms we have the best in alternative music from our DJs:

 Guest DJ Siobhan- DJ Transient 2 Deviant (Catacombs, Carnival of souls)

 Simon- DJ Psychomagnet (After Dark, Midian)

 Yanni-DJ Yanni Oblivion (After Dark, Dantes' Inferno)

 Gaynor-DJ sistercarrion (After dark, Midian, Carrion Screaming)

 ----------------------

Hex is now refurbished after their recent fire, and we'd like to thank all involved in getting the place back up and running so quickly.

Doors open: 9pm-2am

Door fee: £2 b4 10pm/£4 after

Hex is well situated for local transport links, being less than 5 minutes from Birkenhead Central train station, Birkenhead bus station, Liverpool tunnel and taxi ranks. More details can be found on our website. Hex, 3-5 Thomas Street, Birkenhead Merseyside CH41 5DD

Can we take this opportunity to thank all those who have joined us at our nights and events throughout 2005, friends both old and new. Cheers all, and here's to 2006!!
