What’s that in there? Yeah, they’re playing our stage at this year’s Great Escape, mostly because they’re great. Read Sam Lewis’s similarly great review saying so here.

The Café Otto gig
has been moved to Bardens
hmm
is it sold out then?
i really want to go to that gig...
I'm guessing it was due to demand
so there should be still tickets
Cafe Oto doesn't really have a stage. It's just a big square room, with big windows onto the street. I was wondering how a band like TNV would work in there.
ah that's a shame
that venue sounds amazing, i think TNV and (especially) jay reatard would be worth crossing london for to see in a big square room :D
are you going to bardens? do you want to look after me, i'm gonna go on my own i think.
Alas
I am going to the Battles gig, unless it runs really late (as Bardens usually does) and I might run to Bardens on my way home to see if TNV have started (I live 2 mins from Bardens)
Jay Reatard is playing my clubnight 2 nights later though, you should totally come to that

ah
i wish, but i'll be at ATP then.
i so wish i was going to pitchfork now, the line-up is 234 times better.
i live
2 mins away from bardens too. clearly shacklewell lane is the place to be (if you like prostitutes and the mentally ill).
anyone know if there'll be tickets on the door?
I thought the 21st
was gonna be at corsica studios and thats why mt eerie wsa no longer playing there. I have tickets for cafe oto, got an email saying it is now at bardens but no mention of a date change, im confused
The date hasn't changed
DiS have cocked up!
14th - Bardens
21st - Corsica studios
the london night on the 21st
is (I think) a Plan B night, and it also features Lovvers and the brilliant Gindrinker.
The Cardiff show has the also brilliant Threatmantics in support. I will be in attendance.
Gindrinker!
Great news.
COMMON PLACE!
I was told it was Royal Park Cellars...
it is royal park cellars
yup
oh yeah,
and it's with piskie sits and wonderswan
