https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/Gerardjames902

Tickets are £10.00 each in advance (Payment by Family & Friends only):

Please remember to use the "Friends & Family" payment option when paying or the payment will be rejected. We always keep ticket prices as low as possible. Since our first event with "Long Tall Shorty" way back in 2009, advance tickets have been a paltry £10.00, as they still are now. We can do this because we don`t charge hidden or silly booking fees and commissions. Advance tickets are £10.00 and £10.00 is all you pay. We regret that we sadly can`t reserve tickets without payment because of previous experiences of a few in the past, when people didn't turn up and pay after reserving tickets. ALL ARE WELCOME!

This is our 17th year of doing this and we thank you all for your continued support, without you lot and everyone concerned these events would never be as successful as they are with many sold out shows to look back on. Advance tickets are a paltry £10.00 in advance and with cheap Social Club bar prices, a great venue with a great atmosphere, you can`t really go wrong.

A fantastic night of music is awaiting with the UK`s Premier Mod R&B Hammond Soul outfit The Sha La La`s performing in Crawley again. The Sha La La`s have released countless 60`s inspired quality records on Dizzy`s Detour Records and the recent releases just get better. Those of you that have heard their records and seen them live will know this is going to be special evening you won`t want to miss, just hope the wooden dance floor can survive it. If that ain`t enough we also have the South Coast`s New Generation, The XLNTs. Gel and Karl saw them at the Brighton Mod Weekender last year and it was a no brainer. If you're looking for the `79 sound brought into the future then look and hear no further. They have recently released an album called "We Are... The New Generation" , which you really should check out as it`s fantastic, and are playing gigs everywhere to high acclaim and with the other young bands around our scene is in good hands. This is Their Generation and they need all the support they deserve. The usual suspects will also get the floor moving playing Mod and Scooter Sounds, before, during and after the bands play.

Originally calling ourselves "Vixen Scooter Club" in the Mod Revival era, it was decided in the spring of 1983 to change our name. Various names were suggested like The Exploding Frogs, Crazy Daisy`s or even The Cherry Tree Scooter Cub but "The Last Great Act Of Defiance Scooter Club" was decided on and we never looked back. Our original logo/patch was hand made for each member by our old boy Phil Ford with every patch having the members unique number at the bottom. This was Danger Mouse sticking two fingers up at Saba-Toothed tiger on a union flag background. This idea came from a program at an Animals gig a few Vixen/Defiance went to, Gel suggested to put Danger Mouse in front of the tiger with his two fingers up and the name "The Last Great Act of Defiance Scooter Club" was born. Members came from Crawley, Copthorne, East Grinstead & the surrounding areas. Defiance members sprayed their helmets in agate red and gold had DSC in gold on the back in old English letters and had their number in large yellow on one side.
In 1983 Defiance, as we were now known, went to the Isle of Wight Scooter rally, 13 attended and our numbers in the club increased weekly after this, the final total was 60 plus. This total was many more with our birds, mates and hang-arounds etc. Attending Mod gigs & rallies etc, we soon got a reputation, good or bad, we`ll leave that up to you. Breton caps and studded belts under our suit jackets were two trade marks of DSC, but as they say, all good things come to an end.
In 2006, in a pub in Turners Hill near Crawley, a few original members decided to brush of the ashes of time and get DSC together again and back in business. The now famous and revamped DSC logo is now put on patches, badges, polo shirts, jackets, mugs and scooter banners etc.

In 2009 Gel and Karl decided DSC needed an official reunion, this was held at Copthorne Social Club near Crawley with Mod Revival legends LONG TALL SHORTY. Old and new connected with DSC made this a great event. Since then Defiance SC has had many other very successful events with bands such as: SMALL WORLD (2), THE UNIVERSAL, DC FONTANA, THE LOOP, ECHO GENERATION, CHARLIE COOPER, TOMMY AITKINS, TIME BOMB, SUSPICIONS, THE CONCRETE GODS, THE SCENE, DISTANT ECHO. SQUIRE (2), THE KILLERMETERS (2), THE SHA LA LA`S, SLOW TIME MONDAYS, SHAMEFACED, PUNKY REGGAE PARTY, PURPLE HEARTS, THE COLLECTIVE A.K.A., MAZE, THE RISK and MONUMENTAL etc.

Defiance SC also released a live LP in 2021 with the help of Dizzy at Detour Records featuring THE KILLERMETERS from the 2014 gig, a very unique thing to do for a scooter club and something we are very proud of. Think Dizzy has a few black copies left if interested, the splatter version sold out on pre-order before release. Keep your eyes out as there could be something else in the pipeline.

It`s now been well over 43 years since "The Last Great Act Of Defiance Scooter Club" changed it`s name from "Vixen Scooter Club" and this time Gel has secured The Sha La La`s and The XLNTs. So we both have our work cut out again. Without you lot and everyone else involved, these events would not exist, you are all legends.

Catch you soon and as said, ALL ARE WELCOME! You are welcome to contact Gel and Karl anytime, if you have any questions.
