An end of an era draws near: the same day that Malaysia celebrates it’s 51st Merdeka (Independence Day), will sadly be the same day that The Loft at Zouk KL will be permanently closing to accommodate a massive renovation. Although regular occupants Twilight Action Girl will be moved to a new area within the building - that promises to be bigger, better, louder and more banging than before - many will no doubt have fond memories of the dingy, smoke-infested room that gave a common ground for people seeking alternative music to jump around on.

As a final tribute to The Loft, Lapsap and friends will be taking to the decks on Wednesday, whilst on Friday TAG will play their final regular night with the help of live acts MUZE and Killer Calculateur. The grand finale on the 31st will see KBnL and Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill! join TAG for their final Loft night, which is guaranteed to be more packed than a tin of sardines, so y’all better come early if you want in. It also helps that early birds will be plied with free booze and goodies from Sony BMG, Universal Music and Converse.

Lapsap and Co. will be playing on August 27th, whilst the regular Friday night TAG will run as normal on August 29th, and the final ever TAG will coincide with Merdeka on August 31st. As per usual, the music starts at 10pm and doesn’t end until 3am, whilst entry is free before the clock strikes midnight.
