JOHN SCOTT, MIKEY ADAMS, NICK CRANSTON, KIM MACKASKIL, CHRIS WADDELL, COMPERE TONY JAMESON & THE BLACK DIAMOND EXPRESS
Come along to our new payday party, The Friday Fix. We have a love of good music and a ridiculous addiction to comedy so we’ve brought the two together in the Voodoo Rooms’ luxurious ballroom.
With 2 hours of live comedy kicking off at 7.30pm, followed by live bands and a dj from 9.30pm, we’ll pack a full night’s entertainment into this tight space.

Nick Cranston & Chris Waddell – Up and coming acts, a quick taste for the future.
New acts Nick and Chris take their 5 minutes of fame on the Fix stage.
Tony Jameson – our compere for the evening
With his whimsical rambling manner, or flight of fancy, fleeting from whimsy to dark one-liners, before stopping for a cup of tea and a breather.
Tony is establishing a name, not only for himself as act, but also as an accomplished MC for Newcastle’s Laughing Penguin comedy clubs. His likeable stage presence gives the audience something to warm to as he chats to them, making them feel at home and lovely whilst creating a great vibe for comedy.
'Tony Jameson delivered both an imaginatively amusing and well received performance....' THREE WEEKS
Live Band
Black Diamond Express – a nine piece soaked in poetry, myth and bourbon.
“Authentic roots blues for 21st century hobos. Bellowing sermons and a swaggering suited performance... The BDE somehow stay true to both Robert Johnson and The S3x Pistols.” THE LIST
“They take the all the stuff they love, and play the h3ll out of it with a rocking old time string band... more or less.” TEN TRACKS
