Rock, Alternative, Metal Society

R.A.M.S. is the home of alternative music, social events, and clubnights at Staffordshire University since 2009 (14 years!)

If you like music, hanging out with others, and feeling included, the R.A.M.S. crowd is diverse with those who love all sorts of hobbies, such as Warhammer, Tabletop, Video Games, Programming, Sports, Cars, and many many more! 

Every member of R.A.M.S. is different, but we all come together over our love for music and are always welcome to new members, and we are thoroughly #proudtobestaffs!

What we do:

• Host music nights at the local student venues, namely R.A.M.S. Karaoke and R.A.M.S. INVASIONs.
• Host collaborative events such as the "Monster Ball" on Halloween, support MISFIT nights every 2nd Monday of the month, and get involved with other collab nights with the Coven, Fight Club, Myth societies, and the LGBTQ+ network.
• Meet up frequently at other student events such as Tuesday Karaoke, Flashback Fridays, and LRV Wednesday nights.
• Frequently attend events and venues outside of the University, such as Devils Night and Skullcracker, we even have a R.A.M.S. Camp at Download some years!
• Facilitate life-long friendships between members!

Benefits of the R.A.M.S. Membership:

• You gain a free wristband, entitling you to discounted entry to MISFIT (2nd Monday of the month, LRV), Skullcracker (Saturdays, The Underground) and Devils Night! (Last Saturday of the month, The Sugarmill)

• And finding a group of people you can call friends, possibly for life!

What we're looking to do:

• We're looking to get involved with charities such as UPRAWR, Movember and the Sophie Lancaster Foundation.
• Planning additional R.A.M.S. Events for members to get involved with, hopefully without harming your wallet!
• Extending the value of our wristbands with other discounts and uses.
• Include and facilitate interaction with the R.A.M.S. Old Guard (Alumni), possibly with Merch, event inclusion, and other possibilities.
