The Old Nottinghamians' Society invites you to The ONs' Christmas Gig at The Maze, Mansfield Road, Nottingham NG1 3FT (just round the corner from Forest Road, heading into the city) on Thursday 21st December 2017. There will be 6 great acts to entertain you for only £5 on the door (16+) from 7pm.
The ONs' philosophy is to have lots of fun and do a bit of good. In December 2016 ONs David Barron, Nathan Cox, Obi Davis & Tris Ellis, aka HotBox, headlined a show at The Maze in aid of the Saving Lives Helipad Appeal for the Queen's Medical Centre in Nottingham. The line-up of under-21s supporting the lads included their Nottingham Girls' High School contemporary Izzy Carlin; Matt Humphries; Starz Falade & Jada Mullings; and Sam & Joe (now known as Talking to Frank). They raised £1,424 for a Nottingham Hospitals Charity cause that was being championed by Ken Poole, cricket coach at Nottingham High School for 27 years.
This year the proceeds will go to the Renal & Transplant Unit at Nottingham City Hospital, which is in need of televisions to make the experience better for its dialysis patients. Every £230 will buy a TV, stand & headphones for a dialysis station, where patients spend four hours at a time, three days a week, every week of the year.
There is a Facebook event for the show at Donations would also be very welcome at .
The compere at The Maze will be the incomparable Jason Loftus and the musicians performing will be:
