*HELLO, HELLO, IT’S GOOD TO BE BACK!*
Finished mourning the death of SB yet? Good. Because we’ve got some fantastic news for all of you who have been craving a fix of glittered-up drunken rock‘n‘roll action. Stay Beautiful is coming back to the Purple Turtle on FRIDAY 23rd APRIL for a one-off NINE YEAR REUNION PARTY! Mark it in your diary now, spread the word to all your friends, and start planning your most dazzling outfit for the occasion. We can’t wait to see you all again!

*HERE WE ARE NOW, ENTERTAINERS…*
As well as a live band - to be confirmed very soon - there will of course be six hours’ worth of killer tunes from Stay Beautiful’s regular DJs, CHERRY FOXXX, SIMON PRICE and DAVID RYDER PRANGLEY. (Tony Maggs is unfortunately detained on the other side of the planet, but he’ll be with us in spirit.) And you know you can rely on us to rock the partay.

*CHEAP BOOZE, FREE BOOZE!*
Drinks at the Purple Turtle are, you'll be glad to hear, served at pretty reasonable, pubby prices anyway (certainly compared to one or two of our previous homes). And, to set you on your way towards alcoholic oblivion, we have an amazing HAPPY HOUR from 9pm-10pm! The frankly irresistible deal is 2-FOR-1 on Fosters, Strongbow, Bells/Gordons/Bacardi Oro/house vodka (with mixer), and pitchers of Jesus Juice. What's JESUS JUICE, we hear you ask? Named, of course, after one of the more controversial rumours about the deceased King Of Pop, it's a cocktail served exclusively at Stay Beautiful - a delicious and potentially head-fvcking blend of vodka, Archers, cranberry, lemonade and fresh lime - at £8.50 per pitcher ALL NIGHT (a wide variety of other cocktails will be served at a tenner per pitcher). Furthermore, as aficionados of messy vodka-guzzling will be aware, Stay Beautiful has a somewhat notorious tradition called the WATERING CAN SONG...

*ADMISSION NOW A QUID CHEAPER!*
In recognition of the recession and everyone‘s general skintness, we’re lowering our standard admission by a quid. So, prices are now as follows. Standard price is £6 (i.e. if you can‘t even be bothered to print out a flyer, bring some sort of concessionary ID, or wear an SB badge). However, if you come with a flyer (printable version: http://www.staybeautifulclub.co.uk/eflyer.jpg ), NUS/DSS card or a Stay Beautiful badge, it's just £5 ALL NIGHT! And for very early birds, regardless of flyers etc, it's just £4 BEFORE 10.00pm!

*WHERE IT'S AT*
Stay Beautiful's home is the PURPLE TURTLE ( http://www.purpleturtlebar.com ), 61-65 Crowndale Rd NW1 (for directions and transport information, see our 'Info' page: http://www.staybeautifulclub.co.uk/info.htm ), just 1 minute's walk from Mornington Crescent tube (and about 5 minutes from Camden Town.

*OPENING HOURS AND AGE POLICY*
Stay Beautiful opens at 9.00pm and closes at 3.00am. Please note that The Purple Turtle is an over-18s venue and ID MAY BE REQUIRED, so if you think you may look underage, please bring one of the following: an NUS card (with a credit card), a passport, or a driving license.

*WHAT IS STAY BEAUTIFUL?*
Stay Beautiful, a nocturnal refuge for flamboyant freaks and glittery exhibitionists, has been proudly luring disco dollies to a life of vice since 2001. The current DJ team consists of Manics biographer Simon Price, his glamorous grrl sidekick Cherry Foxxx, Rachel Stamp’s David Ryder Prangley and, when he’s not on the other side of the globe, the club’s Shady Mr Big, Tony Maggs, with regular live bands and guest DJs. What will you hear? Think David Bowie, Daisy Chainsaw, Dresden Dolls, Duran Duran, Goldfrapp, Hole, Iggy Pop, Jack Off Jill, Kenickie, Kylie, Lady Gaga, Ladytron, Le Tigre, Manics, Marilyn Manson, New York Dolls, Peaches, Placebo, Prince, Rachel Stamp. Siouxsie, Suede, T. Rex, Patrick Wolf… you get the idea. And if you need a refresher, have a listen to our SPOTIFY playlist ( http://bit.ly/d5F1qk ) and recreate a Stay Beautiful party in the privacy of your own home!

*DRESS: UP!*
We encourage: glitter, eyeliner, corsets, feathers, big hair, big heels, lipstick, fishnets, faux fur, ballgowns, latex, flowers, veils, hats, wigs, costumes, dandyism, androgyny, freakishness, flamboyance, self-expression, style. There is no rigorously-enforced dress code as such, but we strongly believe that if you MAKE AN EFFORT, you‘ll have a better time (and so will everyone else).
