Jenny Caroline Leggott's diary

Coming soon to your Union is a very special event indeed. It has never been attempted before and is tipped to be the best night of entertainment to be held at the Union so far this year! “What is it?” I hear you cry. It is the one and only Societies Takeover which will take place at the Union on Saturday 23^rd February 2008! This event is going to be huge with over 20 different societies taking part showing you just what it is they do.

There will be something for everyone. From the best new DJs to live bands home-grown at your very own University. Come and check out the talents of City Safari, an indie/rock band with a lead singer who has the mellowest vocals you will ever hear, and School of Rock , who recently supported The Enemy with their unbelievable energy and vivacious performance style. There will also be an open-mic session held in Via Lattea where you will be able to escape from the craziness of Lux and C02 and chill out to various acoustic performances whilst you give your taste buds a treat by indulging in our cultural food selection. If this isn’t enough then there will also be a huge debate on a variety of topics (both fun and serious), plenty of fun and games (including giant twister) and a very special Game Show featuring your favourite Sabb Officers!

As always it is never too late to get involved. If your society wants to get in on this amazing event then get in touch – email ben.norman@port.ac.uk. We are especially keen to get more cultural and political societies on board; so don’t be shy and drop us a line! We also hold meetings every Thursday afternoon at 1pm in the Sabb Office to discuss the running of the event – pop along and get involved!

Tickets are on sale now and cost only £3. You can pick yours up from either the Union reception or from Ben Norman, your Student Activities and Development Officer, in the Sabb Office.
