CLUB OF THE WEEK
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.FUTURE PERFECT @ hanover grand
Last year I received a phone call from the irate promoter of Future Perfect. My crime had been to suggest that FP's exodus from the Hanover Grand was partly a result of an unsuccessful attempt to follow Hanover's hugely successful Saturday night, Malibu Stacey. I was told that FP was still going strong and was simply moving on.
A few months later, I heard FP was relaunching a Saturday-night residency at Hanover. So I decided to check it out last week, and was mightily impressed.
Maybe the recent onset of sunshine has cheered everyone up, but Future Perfect's first May party was as electric as a month's worth of the Pepsi Chart Show (which is filmed at the same venue) without the need for stencilled queue cards which read "applaud loudly".
Jon "Pleased" Wimmin and Stretch & Vern kept the crowd moving for seven hours. It seemed that everybody was in the mood to party. From the crowds outside to a full lobby and throbbing dancefloor, it was a night to remember. They're back!
6 Hanover Street, W1 (0171-499 7977) tonight 10.30pm-5.30pm, pounds 10-pounds 15
