This is the fifth DIRTY DONKEY and it's just over 2 years since our first one in November 2003 at Candy's Apartment. It's been amazing every time we've put on a party and discovered more and more interesting  people who come along to dance and be part of the Donkey vibe. We are proud to be part of something which is inclusive of lots of communities, ideas, identities, and diverse ways of being. We put on the first one because we really wanted to get together and party with friends from different aspects of our lives - a bit like having a house party and inviting absolutely everyone you know and not worrying about whether they would get along - mostly they do and they can be some of the best times! We hoped to recreate that kind of a vibe in a nightclub as well as getting to pick excellent music - with a definite dark and dirty electro/techno feel for a pumping dancefloor and an alternative funked up space where DJs could play stuff they really loved...

We are keen to build a sense of community with our parties and want to say a big THANK YOU to the growing Donkey crew who help out and support the night in so many ways.. We are hoping to encourage a sense of cabaret and perfomance in the Eclectic Funk Cocktail Bar and happy to hear from artists and performers with creative ideas. This is our last party for 2005 and we've got lots of plans for a bigger and DIRTIER 2006!

So - if you couldn't come along to the last one..... or if you did and you wanna do it all again, the next DIRTY DONKEY is on Friday 2nd December @ Rogues!!! We've confirmed Donkey stalwart Mark Murphy alongside Doctor Jane; a return visit from Lanny K and Miss Yetti, and debuts downstairs from DJs Matt Vaughan & Ryzer -both talented guys sure to keep the ElectricFilth dungeon pumping! Downstairs the music is a sexy mix of dark, dirty electro, tech & grinding beats.

Upstairs we'll have fresh talent with DJ Mesma joining Donkey regulars stAlka, Simon Mann and Marquis to keep the funk fruity in the EclecticFunk cocktail bar where the music policy is "anything goes" and will journey through all kinds of house, breaks, hip hop and electro.
