Serina instructed us to focus on 50s era songs but we also met requests from her extended family and played a short selection of Bollywood hits – if you haven’t heard Sadi Gali – go and listen to it now, it’s irresistible. Serina and Joseph were married at the Glasgow Film Theatre and held their […]

We wouldn’t normally quote from correspondence but we loved the feedback we received from Rebecca: We had so, so much fun and the tunes were completely perfect – totally what we were after. Our family and friends of all ages commented on how much they enjoyed the music, you played such a good mix and […]

Our first ever Ladies Night was pretty spectacular (there would eventually be 5, with ever more complex line-ups – pictures of Ladies Night 3 are here). Every DJ delivered the goods and the atmosphere in the Beat Club was absolutely jumping. Lee, Pam and Aarti (Pretty Ugly), Natalia (Blitzkrieg Bop), Josefin and Sara (Dolly Mixture), […]

It took us years to get Specials frontman Terry Hall to come and DJ, and when he eventually came to Pin Ups it was his first ever DJ set in Scotland. (Top DJs Mark Robb and Craig Loosejoints would claim this coup a year later, but sorry chaps – we were there first!) Terry played a crowd pleasing […]

Our NME tour aftershow parties were almost always wild nights and we advertised this one with a flyer which paid tribute to past glories (pictures of Florence and the Machine and Friendly Fires’ visit are in the gallery here): The Flying Duck wasn’t available so we booked Stereo, a lovely big room with a huge […]

Tonight Glasgow belongs to Rick Witter, as he prepares to lead Shed 7 in a show at the 1,500 Glasgow Academy that’s been sold-out for months.  We like to think this incredible renaissance was kicked off by Rick’s Guest DJ set at Pin Ups in 2007, which was a pretty rowdy evening.  Almost every Guest DJ […]

In the summer of 2006 we had the crazy idea to try and book Tony Wilson and organise a night celebrating Factory Records. Tony, of course, was never a DJ, but that wasn’t really the point. Peter Hook, who DJ’d back then and still DJs, would have been the more obvious choice, but we didn’t […]

In September 2009 we introduced all the freshers arriving in Glasgow to our parties with the hugely successful Pin Ups Circus with Guest DJ Naboo of The Mighty Boosh. Come September 2010 we were keen to go one better and had drawn up “Pin Ups Pirates” with Guest DJ Ryan Jarman of The Cribs. Fairly […]

If I’m being honest I was a little bit nervous about meeting Brett Anderson, for a variety of reasons.  Suede were, and still are, one of my very favourite bands, which meant I had to avoid being weird and starstruck when meeting the man who had written beautiful songs that got me through all sorts […]
