Idle Hands Fundraiser at GRUB
As you may or may not know, local pop-up coffee shop Idle Hands came unstuck recently, with a move to a new, permanent home falling through leaving the shop’s management – and Manchester’s caffeine addicts – in the lurch. To help out, their pals at GRUB are hosting a fundraiser party at their Baring Street venue, with live music from the Travelling Band’s Joe Dudderidge, as well as numerous DJ slots including sets from the Piccadilly Records boys. As its a GRUB party, there’s plenty of food and local ales available too: And no doubt you’ll be able to get some damn fine coffee. Entry to the party is free, but you encouraged to dig deep to get this great little coffee shop back on its feet.
