21st January 1974

Another brilliant poster design by OK Dave, this was a 3 x A3 poster for A Winter Boogie, featuring Tosh Ryan's United Mates of Hysterica, Swinbourne Swingers, Albertos and a DJ set of soul and reggae from OK Dave himself.

A Winter Boogie was a benefit gig held in the Old College of Music building on Devas Street. At this time, the building was slated for demolition by the University - a decision which provoked an 'occupation' by a group of disgruntled students. They squatted the building to highlight the student accommodation crisis, to extend the facilities available for community activities within the University campus and to protect the building itself.
