If you're free this Saturday then you could do a lot worse than come along to the Centre for Computing History for a very special retro gaming night.

A Retro Gaming Night for Alli is a one off charity event to help raise funds for Weston Park Hospital in Sheffield. Our good friend Mike Penman from Crazy Horse Gaming recently lost his wife Alli to cancer and we wanted to help him give something back to the dedicated staff there that helped her towards the end.

She was a loving and supportive wife to Mike and it would be great to see you all at this event and to help raise as much money as possible in Alli's name.

The event itself will be an awesome evening of Retro Gaming featuring all the classic gaming systems from Atari to Sony Playstation and everything between. There will be a raffle, competitions and a burger van will be available on site if you get hungry!

Live Music From MJ Hibbett (Hey Hey 16K)

The legendary MJ Hibbett will also be in attendance to perform his new two man musical 'Hey Hey 16K' to help us kick things off.

All profits from this event will go to Weston Park Hospital, Sheffield.

It's 7pm till Midnight and due to the fact that this is BYOB and the adult nature of some games this is an over 18s event.

I recently did an interview with Edward Layland for the excellent Hard Pressed music blog. You can read the full thing here:

Last Friday David and myself headed down to West Rd Concert Hall in Cambridge for the NMG Awards. We were nominated for best indie group (within a fifty mile radius of Cambridge). We didn't win but we came in the top five which was nice. The winners were Silver Screen.
