Smokin' Jo's Nude night takes over Ministry of Sound this New Year's Eve with a line-up including X-Press 2, Radio Slave and D'Julz.
Jo's bi-monthly Nude night has been bringing underground names such as Ralph Lawson, Silicone Soul and Clive Henry to MoS since February this year. The night is especially known for its trapeze artists, drag queens, pole dancers and anything goes philosophy. Remember the Thai kickboxing ring in April? The next Nude takes place on New Year's Eve, or Nude Year's Eve as they're calling it, and as usual there'll be an array of avant-garde performances as well as some of Jo's fave DJs.
House trio X-Press 2 headline the night with a DJ set alongside Radio Slave, who handed in a big rerub of their 'Kill 100' single this year and has also been one of the top producers of 2006. Freak N'Chic's Dan Ghenacia will also spin with Jo in the main room, which will be transformed into an oriental garden with lanterns, geishas and golden buddhas.
Elsewhere in the Bar there'll be an eighties New York theme with breakdancers and other urban street characters. French deep house DJ/producer D'Julz, Kenny Hawkes and Marc Hughes provide the beats with MoS residents Streetlife DJs in the Baby Box.
Doors open at 9 p.m. and advance tickets are now on sale for £40 plus booking fee.
