Going to university is one of the best experiences of people`s lives. For
the first time you can truly be yourself without the pressures of parents
and you can make tons of new friends and enjoy lots of new hobbies.
University is the only time in your life where you have everything to play
for as you decide your working hours, the kind of friends you`ll have and
what you`re going to do in the future. Apart from all the heavy stuff
though, it is a time without responsibilities so you can really let loose
and enjoy, especially when the student`s union line up a top quality
selection of acts to keep you going throughout term.
With club nights massively popular at university, kings of the castle
Ministry of Sound often choose select DJs and top of the range MCs to represent their particular brand of banging music. These are great as the
backdrop to a theme night and are often present at glow-stick dance events
and sometimes even at R&B club nights. Sometimes celebrity DJs also make
an appearance with the Ministry of Sound crew too. If you are intent on a
celebrity DJ, for a higher price UK chart-topper Calvin Harris and acts like Hed Kandi and Eric Prydz are available to hire for big union events and are sure to get the party going!
Aside from dance nights, with British R&B and UK Grime really taking off
in the charts, a sure-fire way to draw in crowds is to get some of the country`s hottest young stars along to the university. Hit stars Tinchy Stryder, Kano and N Dubz have all been making the rounds at UK
universities to try and get their music out there and the students
absolutely love it. It is a real chance for them to see chart-topping
music giants for a fraction of normal concert prices and right at their
university too!
Many universities also have themed nights, such as time-warp - going back
to the 70s or 80s - or dress up themes like military, cartoon characters
or superheroes. Often students want cheesy music to back drop their
equally cheesy costumes and so old time acts and vintage classics are
often the order of the day. Tribute acts of bands like ABBA, Amy Winehouse and Indie Rock Bands, can be great fun for all kinds of events and bring a bit of
nostalgia to the table.
Recently, old-time music acts like Chaka Demus and Pliers, Sugababes, The
Temptations, S Club and 911 have been active on the university
entertainment circuit and incredibly popular.
Chase & Status are another top-quality act that offer phat beats and
endless dancing opportunities and Basement Jaxx have been involved with
graduation balls and freshers events. A real glow-stick act that will draw the crowds in!
For fantastic events and
london acts, Warble Entertainment Agency is the company to contact.
With all these banging nights going on at university, try to
remember to actually do some studying. It`s all about striking a balance:
work hard and play hard!
