Woody Bop Muddy

The Parlure Spiegeltent

I'm sure anyone who saw Nirvana's turn on 'Top Of The Pops would assume that only the Weirdest Act would perform to a backing track of 'Smells Like Teen Spirit'. Unfortunately for Kurt Cobain, Woody Bop Muddy, armed with a bucket of rice and lyrics like "your fingers have been cut off, your house is made of porridge", has made off with the title, leaving a trail of Basmati in his wake. For the main event he offers typically bad records up for an audience vote, to be granted passage to 'record heaven' or to meet the business end of his golden hammer. Its an unfortunately small crowd at judgement day, for, whilst the jokes wear a bit thin with time, Woody's unrelenting lunacy is quite a spectacle.

The Parlure Spiegeltent, 3 May, 3:00pm and 7:30pm, £11.00 (£9.00/£7.00), fpp 23
