But sorted it now is, so here are the long awaited details for our long awaited post-chrimbo knees up THE COR BOXING BONANZA!! The Civilisation Of the Rough will be returning to our home from last winter, The Wine Vaults and will be taking it over for one night only! In true COR fashion we will be transforming the venue into a post-Christmas underground disco wonderland with 4, yes FOUR rooms of party fun! Expect as always full COR production and décor as well as some beautiful sounding sound systems. All of the COR ressies have been pawing obsessively over their record boxes for this one for sometime now and will all be in attendance, raring to dazzle the COR party contingent in to a dance floor frenzy of suitable vigour to work away some of that much enjoyed festive excess!

3. GREG WILSON is coming along to kick the whole thing off!!
