SUGAR, GRAVY, PLEASURE tells the story of the Sugar Club, Peterboroughs legendary alternative music venue that became a haven for misfits, music lovers, and anyone who didnt quite fit in elsewhere.</p><p>Pete Elderkins memoir chronicles his journey from playing in local indie band The Pleasureheads to creating one of the UKs longest-running alternative club nights. Through the evolving musical landscapes of grunge, Britpop, and nu metal, the Sugar Club offered a safe space where people could dress how they wanted, dance how they liked, and hear music that wouldnt be played anywhere else in town.</p><p>With a colourful cast of characters including loyal doormen, eccentric DJs, amorous couples under the piano, and a mysterious regular who disappeared into the "Fenland Bermuda Triangle," this is more than just a story about music its a celebration of community, friendship, and the power of creating your own culture when none exists. From dodging skinheads and navigating bomb scares to hosting early performances by soon-to-be-famous bands, Elderkin captures both the chaos and the camaraderie of running an alternative club in a provincial city.</p><p>Written with humour and heart, SUGAR, GRAVY, PLEASURE is an unapologetic tribute to working-class culture, alternative music, and the magical moments that happen when like-minded people find their tribe. Its a reminder that sometimes the best nights of our lives happen not in the big cities, but in the places where we have to make our own entertainment.</p>...4792504Sugar, Gravy, Pleasure379379https://www.gandhi.com.mx/sugar--gravy--pleasure-9781805149651/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4606251/image.jpg?v=638567842895170000InStockMXN99999DIAudiolibro20249781805149651_W3siaWQiOiJhYjc5ZjM5OC02YjI4LTRhMTAtYmQwYy1lOWY2YTRhN2JmOGYiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjM3OSwiZGlzY291bnQiOjAsInNlbGxpbmdQcmljZSI6Mzc5LCJpbmNsdWRlc1RheCI6dHJ1ZSwicHJpY2VUeXBlIjoiV2hvbGVzYWxlIiwiY3VycmVuY3kiOiJNWE4iLCJmcm9tIjoiMjAyNS0wNC0xMVQxMjowMDowMFoiLCJyZWdpb24iOiJNWCIsImlzUHJlb3JkZXIiOmZhbHNlLCJpc0VsaWdpYmxlRm9yQ3JlZGl0VHJpYWwiOnRydWUsImNyZWRpdFB1cmNoYXNlUHJpY2UiOjF9XQ==9781805149651_<p>Growing up in Peterborough, voted the <em>worst place to live in England & the UK</em>, certainly had its challenges. But a love for Nick Caves band and a passion for indie music launched the author, Pete Elderkin, on a series of extraordinary events while following a dream to reach that holy grail for rock groups, a BBC Radio One John Peel session. <em><strong>Sugar, Gravy, Pleasure</strong></em> details the ups and downs of being in the wrong place and time while trying to DJ and run an exciting alternative music club in a what seemed a hostile, provincial environment.</p><p>This is a wry, self-depreciating memoir set over eleven years and telling the true story of <em>The Sugar Club</em> and how it, improbably, became one of the longest running nightclubs in the UK. It captures, with first-hand contributors, the fun experiences and social history of the unique 1990s and 2000s, when the grunge and Britpop scenes came from out of nowhere to the forefront of the UK music scene.</p><p>" <em>I loved it. A beautiful, big-hearted book.</em> <em><strong>Sugar, Gravy, Pleasure</strong></em> <em>is a love letter to a lost time when music was at the centre of the universe."</em> Tony Parsons, journalist, broadcaster and author.</p>...(*_*)9781805149651_<p>In a city once voted "Worst Place to Live in the UK," an unlikely musical revolution took place.
