This years Cockstock will feature as ever a great new location (think ‘ghostbusters building’ with hidden rooms, roof top terrace, and a view of the whole of London), fantastically obscure live acts, 16 hours of snowballing entertainment, commissioned installations, purpose built reggae sound, and best of all… back to a rough and ready DIRT CHEAP BAR.

Here’s a snap-shot of the view from the location roof where in reality you can see past Battersea Powerstation to beyond the O2 dome!

Cockstock 2009: A short clip featuring the Terrace and Main Stage at Cockstock (@ DEX). Look out for Blakey smashing it, the Cockstock letters installation and a brief break for Prang!

The Merkinz live at Cockstock 2009: Stage diving, mic fumbling, DG20 solos, mosh pits and love fits; all part of The Merkinz live act.

Cockstock 2008: Animal Electric. A constant 350 peope party all day all night in a secret castle in SW17. Highlights include Future Signal walking in on Cockstock stalwart Black Elvis taking a shit, after another epic performance. Mouthwash provided the set of Festival blasting the main room getting everyone skankin’!  Even the neighbours and the Police enjoyed the show.

Cockstock 2007: The first London based festival held by The Merkinz at a secret Location south of the river. Highlights included tranquilised ravers coming through to the main room and encountering the weird and wonderfull Miss Roberts belting out absurd cabaret. And of course, the breathtaking performance from the Merkinz (above) themselves; Love was truely forged on this day for so many.
