Tsunami benefits are everywhere, so here's another one: Brighton's biggest indie bands join forces for a show at the Concorde 2 on Monday 7th March. Tickets are already on sale.

Tickets are £15 from Ticketweb, or Rounder Records if you're in Brighton. The lineup is: Eighties Matchbox, British Sea Power, Electric Soft Parade, Chris T-T Band and The Mutts, plus Detournement and Chaos Rocks DJs.

If you know the Concorde, you'll know how quickly those tickets are going to vanish.

Brighton's big tsunami gig

the fact that it has bsp makes it better than the cardiff one, that and the fact it doesn't have the mediocre street preachers.

I love this place.... Friday not for charity but you'd be doing yourself a faviour indeed if you went. HoboGoblin... Catnap and Yuchi + a band in the middle that I must say I don't know.

Eurgh the Hobgoblin, full of pretentious goths far too concerned with the way they look.

The ESP do seem to have been a bit on the quiet front, tho from what I can tell they can be found living somewhere along Lewes Road since they walk past me practically everyday waiting at the bus stop on my way to uni!

It's on a Monday, and one that doesn't appear to be a bank holiday.

Yeah, uh, thanks.

Oh, nice one: you think people affected by the Tsunami said, "It's Boxing Day, ferrchrissakes". Tosser.

Ignoring your rambling, bizarre comment, it was more a "great gig, but I can't go because I have to work", thankyouverymuch.

Thanks for the reminder on this one. That's one hell of a line-up. But would expect nothing less from the lovely fellas at Gilded Palace of Sin who are pulling it together. Better get down to Rounder tomorrow...

... and another benefit gig at Brighton's Pressure Point, on Sunday 30th:

The Illuminati
Smilex
Republic of Heaven
All You Miss

"Math-rock lizard-fuelled mayhem", apparently.
