Highsoc Quiz! @ “The Venue” on Campus FREE to Highsoc Members

Saturday, September 22nd, 2007

The questions are being compiled, the frolics are being prepared, mouths are beginning to water - A relaxing night where it’s not who you know, it’s what you know!

Honestly though, if you’re new round these parts this is one of the best nights for meeting other indie music fans. It’s a friendly atmosphere and a night I can’t recommend enough.

Expect glamorous prizes (I hear Simon still cradles his Status Quo vinyl late at night)

Freshers, we have it all lined up for you in 2nd week! If you’re left unimpressed by Nottingham’s battleship-sized cheese clubs and hunger for something a bit different, we’ve got a varied diet of gigs, clubnights, and heavy socializing opportunities, all designed to help you get to know both some of the best spots in your new city and, hopefully, some of the friendlist people!

So, come and see us at Fresher’s Fayre to find out more, and stay tuned for details here at highsoc.com! (Click the calendar for the most up to date details of all events)

Quiet Night Out! Muse. FREE ENTRY with great tunes!

Thursday, September 20th, 2007

The perfect way to enjoy great music of an evening? The ideal way to meet with charming music fans and get a drink before the week starts going again? A most relaxing and civilised way to spend a Sunday evening?

We sure hope so. Highsoc’s Quiet Night Out returns and we hope to make it as good as ever before. Now hosted in Muse, highsoc DJs will play a varied diet of musical tracks while we all have a chinwag and a jolly good time.

Not too loud to chat, nor too sedate to have fun, expect this year’s QNO to feature board games and arts and crafts!
