Punksoc
Punksoc 2011/2012!
What we are
Punksoc is Nottingham Uni's society dedicated towards bringing together those who share music tastes of the alternative: punk rock/ska/pop punk/hardcore etc.. persuasion. We put on erotic gigs, we put on sexy socials, and we get you guys involved every step of the way. We're also very active in supporting the local Nottingham DIY punk scene, with strong ties to the local promoters, bands and gig goers alike.
What we do
So the chances are you're wanting see some gigs at some point, but you know pretty much no one to go with. That's where we come in! Punksoc runs regular meet ups to make the whole gig going experience a little less awkward and a hell of a lot more fun. Got a gig coming up with no one to go with? Drop us a line and we'll organize something.
We've put on a number of gigs in the past featuring the likes of A Loss For Words, Such Gold, Sonic Boom Six, This Is Hell, Fake Problems, and some of our committee have put on the likes of Catch 22 and Chief outside of Punksoc. Expect many more this year. We've also put on a couple of clubnights before which have been awesome fun, and we've got something in the works for this year so keep your eyes peeled.
Finally we're a sociable lot, and we'll be holding a number of socials and events this year. Check out below for details of what we're doing in freshers week.
