Switchflicker set sail along the Rochdale Ship Canal for the Golden Jublie cruise.
‘The afternoon rolled gently on as we made our way down the canal, our entertainment involving a good old fashioned pub quiz (our team was accused of cheating, and it is no exaggeration to point out that text messaging is indeed killing the pub quiz). The music came courtesy of Switchflicker, including the all-female punk band Valerie and their track ‘ All My Heroes Hate Me’, and Glade, who DJed tracks from his EP, all of which exemplified the spiky orientation of Switchflicker – rather refreshing in an age of a rather bland, Mc Label culture.
