The upcoming Insomniacs Ball all-nighter, due to be held at London's SeOne club tomorrow night (April 5), has been cancelled.
Among the acts originally due to play the 7.30pm-6am gig were The Twang, pictured, Blood Red Shoes, Brakes and These New Puritans. Its website is here.
The promoters behind the event sent this e-mail earlier this afternoon:
Due to circumstances beyond our control The Insomniacs Ball unfortunately cannot go ahead tomorrow as planned.
We sincerely regret any inconvenience that may have been caused as a result and can assure anyone who has bought tickets in advance that they will be refunded in full through our ticket agency. This is a temporary situation that we are working hard to rectify and will be announcing an alternative date for the next Insomniacs Ball in the near future.
Bothered? The line-up was, mostly, a bag of festering monkey shite.
haha!
The only bad thing
coming out of this shithouse being cancelled is that there is going to be more twats out tomorrow night.
I suppose
they can just get an early night instead
Diver nails it
The unforseen circumstances were that they didn't sell enough tickets.
^^^
what i was about to say
What is the point of this 'floor it' picture thing?
It's brilliant. But why?
Would it enlighten me if I had the sound turned up?
The Twang didn't sell
enough tickets?
Their "team" must be shitting bricks about the May tour in oversized (for their current status) venues I would have thought...
I actually think people,
myself included, have been put off going to Insomniacs because Twang were on the line- up, and have decided they will go elsewhere. Modular and Fabric are both better alternatives.
So
what's on at Fabric then?
This is...

I bought tickets to go ..
to Insomniacs Ball then when The Twang were announced tried to sell my tickets. No one wanted them.
Adventures in the Beetroot Field tonight it is.
Metronomy The Presets and The Teenagers are at the Scala - another alternative?
Modular party i think.
They've sold out
The Astoria and Academy 2 manchester as well as 4 other regional dates. I'm sure they're not too worried x
YES!
Its because of AITBF and Modular
Which are both far better and far more in vogue.
Brakes and The Twang just won't pull crowds. You can't dance to neither and the people who like Brakes don't really stay out very late do they.
Also
Brakes and The Twang are shit.
twang are shit
but brakes are brill.
the brakes
are awesome so shut the fuck up!
I like Brakes
very much so but when I listen to them I have an overwhelming urge to make soup and sit in a chair. Not leer at women.
cancelled
oh welll everyone will have to come to KILL SURF CITY @ PUNK
Brakes suck
So fucking dull and I had the misfortune to see them on the same bill as the Mules, another shit band.
Bollocks!
Brakes are one of the best bands around at the moment.
