"WELCOME Strangers, welcome friends, welcome to the wrong end of the pier... welcome to the Gallery of Freaks!" so screams the strapline inviting you down to Twenty One cafe this Saturday, to enjoy "post punk electro filth and trans punk sounds".

Performing are London/Berlin based Das Fluff with their "unique bi-polar mix of raving guitars and heady dance beats splattered with electronica, unpredictable fury, explicit honesty and dis-arming emotional and musical fearlessness". They will be joined onstage by Angel Melodyhorn on bass.

T-Bitch want you to "experience their glorious musical cocktail, born from minds that were fed up being defined by their gender and sterile music ruling the charts". T-Bitch play trans, queer, Riot Grrrl, punk noise.

Also on stage are Dave Woodcock and his "creepy organ", plus DJ Alien "spinning beats from the outer regions of this planet".

Dressing up is absolutely encouraged.

It all takes place this Saturday, April 7, from 8pm until late, at the cafe in Unit 21, Pier Approach, in Western Esplanade, Southend.

Admission is free.
