CYCM: Maxine Peake

Course You Can Malcolm welcomes one of the north west’s most critically acclaimed actors on Saturday, as Maxine Peake comes to visit.

Maxine will perform with our main turn The Eccentronic Research Council.

Renowned music website The Quietus describe the band better than we ever could: "The ERC are a self-styled collective of artists, sound designers, experimental pop performers, writers [and] poets. They have conjured up a beguiling brew of elektronische, keyboard led psych, synth pop and analogue ambient to act as the musical accompaniment to a prose poem.

"The narration - mainly carried out by TV actor Maxine Peake - is based around a (part fictional) account of a psychogeographical trip taken by a priest and a nun from Salford to Pendle to learn more about the town’s most notorious daughters."

We will also have two lots of cake. Linzi from the Bay’s, which will be cut using husband’s Stuart’s new ’cake cutting device’, which he won in an auction on eBay earlier this week and Blaine’s sister’s, which is likely to be raffled off.

There will be the Team is Sheet and Polka Mahole to crank the fun dial right up.

Usual food and drink will be available and normal door rules are resumed with the stamp making a comeback. Doors open at 12pm, member’s plus one guest etc, etc...
