The Old Hairdressers is a venue that bags intimacy with ease – It feels like a drunken party in your teenage best pal’s bedroom.

An all local line up decked out for Halloween starts with
Sharptooth – dressed as destroyed beauty queens – like the cover of Hole’s ‘Live Through This’ – diving headlong into Courtney Love’s ‘Miss World’ at the end of their spiky set.
