A clubnight held at Lost Horizon on Friday 5th December. The event starts at 23:00.
Stamp On ‘Em are back with another belter… FRUITCAKES AND CRACKPOTS!!!!!
FRUITCAKES AND CRACKPOTS is back at Lost Horizon on the 5th December. A mad lineup of music with curveballs from every manner of the arts. This is a dance for the divvies, a knees up for the nutjobs. Everyone should be aloud to let loose once in a while. No judgement.
Powered by the mighty Loose Sound, this multi-genre mash up of madness promises to make you laugh your socks off. FRUITCAKES AND CRACKPOTS is about everything around the music. A lineup especially curated to bring you the weird and wonderful, full of energy, interactivity and pure comedy. Like an acid trip gone right.
Loose genre list: jungle, ska, heavy breakbeat, sexy electro sass, "sensual" techno, booty bangers, hiphop, punk, acid house, aliens, creepy dentists, comedy, poetry... you get the gist.
This party is jam packed full of utter nonsense. Energetic DJs, hilarious performances, competitions, live music, walkabouts, skits and plenty of other bits and bobs to get involved in round the venue. It’s going to be pure chaos!
Remember... fancy dress isn't mandatory but much preferred. A Power Ranger is better than a punter! There'll be all sorts of weirdos in costumes around the venue who'll say hello. Dishonourable dentists, disco acrobats, wandering tuckshops, competitive tobacconists and whatever other nonsense we can think of before the doors open.

Lineup as follows...
Dogs Don't Die
The DOGS are back out the kennel to cater to the crackpots. Last time round they closed the evening with suave style and swagger(, switching from singalongs to Ska to Star Wars to Slick Rick). It’s gonna be a mixed bag as they drop their usual emo cry-wank jazz act and show off their musical genius to send the night off sweetly. With a few surprises under their collars, expect some bonus brass bits and special guest John Ed Cooper Clarke. These lads know how to let loose and they’ll leave you all with a warm feeling in your belly. It’s gonna be wholesome as f*ck!
The Twirls (JPEG, Dub Johnson, Scar, Robbo, Lils, Elle)
After spending all evening at a bottomless brunch, the Twirls are here to give you the hen-do you always wanted. A 6 female deep b2b that'll be blasting booty bangers, breakbeats, sexy electro sass, techno, jungle hardcore, hard hitting rap, wedding bells and first dances. It's gonna be all over the place, with some special guests and stupid surprises. Comprising of JPEG, Dub Johnson, Scar, Robbo, Lils, Elle, bare witness to the unstoppable force of a brides last night of freedom. A mixed selection of super-fast sounds, skills and surprises set to make you slip about the dance floor like a sex starved spinster. It'll be special.
Cosmic Crackheads
The Cosmic Crackheads are 2 aliens that got kicked out of another galaxy for farting on a star and only earth would take them in.
It’s live improv music- often made out of farts, comedy, dancing and turntablist scratching.
Ranging from squelchy hip hop to acid electro.
Bring a laundry peg and no expectations.
Second Wife -
They scratch the itch in pitch, put the punk in spunk and bring enough sass from all the gaslighting they’ve had to endure. Second Wife, your dad’s favourite band, are a comedy punk act centred around the hardships of womanhood, as they tear through male pride with sharp witted precision. Creators of the “Cockenspiel”, they’ll cause every man to cringe with their tongue in cheek comedy. We are absolutely made up Second Wife are on the lineup. Guaranteed to have the whole room in stitches, they are obscenely funny.
Urban Goose -
Resident crackpot, Urban Goose will be sharing a bit of everything he's found since migrating from the Northwest. Expect ska, funk, grooves and theme tunes to soothe you into the evening before the chaos ensues.
------------------------------------------------------
It's not just the lineup. We're assembling so many antics for everyone to have a go at. Something weird from every manner of the arts: music, performance, theatre, visual graphics, poetry.
Fruitcakes and Crackpots is a bit of a fever dream, a temporary utopia where you can completely be yourself (or someone else entirely). Let your hair loose or put a wig on we don't care, as long as you don't care about what everyone else is doing too!
Fruitcakes is a safe place for everyone to be themselves, no matter who you are or what you do. If at any point you feel uncomfortable, please let a member of the crew or Lost Horizon staff know and we will sort it out. There is absolutely no tolerance of offensive or abusive behaviour and any mention will be dealt with accordingly.
Entry requirements: 18+
