Drowned in Sound Christmas Party! It's TONIGHT!

christmas

Well, well, well. At DiS, rather than giving you all £5 for Christmas and filling your stockings with unwanted promos, we've decided to throw a party and make you all pay to get in. In fairness though, we're pretty sure you're going to want to come and celebrate the birth of little baby Jesus by listening to some music, dancing, getting drunk and being sick on Chalk Farm Road.

For the upstairs area, we've decided to pass the baton of responsiblity on to two of our most beloved message board users, scarf-wearing hippy prole-art-threat and northern trains enthusiast Bamos. They've picked some bands for the evening and agreed to DJ in their own inimitable style:

Bomb Factory
It's art punk rock. It's loud; it's spoken word, apoplectic ranting, yelping and screaming to driving rhythms and furious guitars. It's the sound of now and very possibly tomorrow as well. (DiS profile)

The Nudes
They used to be called The Smoke, they're a boiseterous West London three-piece and they're mates with the splendid Larrikin Love. (myspace | DiS profile)

+ DJs Bamos & Prole Art Xmas Treat (upstairs) DiS DJs & more (downstairs)

The Barfly, Camden, London
Friday 23rd December, 10.30pm - 3am
Tickets: £5 adv. (click here to buy) £8 door

See you there!



  • Hippy?

    Youre freaking out my Vibecounter, mind controller

    • Well

      I've made the front page. I can now die happy. Now come to this, you filthy bastards. It's like Christmas, but a little bit earlier.

      • rubbish...

        i'll be in Ireland by then... :(

        • well me and bamos will play anywhere

          so book us in in the motherland

          • haha

            the event caledar has prole down as "possibly".

            • well the North Lonodn line trains to Camden Road

              are very disagreeable at this time of year - I may have to sleep round Bez's or something the night before

              • excuse me

                is it just me, or does that woman on the BT ad to the left look like shes wanking to internet porn?!

                Thats a curious demographic BT are going for there.

                • ah i see

                  but you are djing right?

                • would you

                  play in a former public toilet under a green on which lives hobos and scagheads?

                  • uh

                    read the article, the gig IS in Camden Town y'know..

                    • that,

                      is true, but it's not literally IN an underground toilet. That delight is reserved for those in the west of landan.

                • refresh your browser a few times

                  she'll pop up eventually, the dirty little minx

                  • ha ha!

                    she does! that's hilarious.

                    • "Like Wanking?...

                      ...'come' to BT"

                    • She's gone!

                      where have they taken her?

                      give me back my wanking woman

                      • :(

                        This clashes with Festivus. Shite.

                        • Is there any chance we can get this moved to Koko?

                          That would be much better.

                        • Am I being silly?

                          Or does it not say where this is ANYWHERE in the article. Or is everyone here so tragically hip they already know?

                          • It says...

                            Chalk Farm Road, and makes references to upstairs/downstairs, strongly indicating the location of the shindig is none other than the Camden Barfly.

                            • It doesn't

                              actually say it though. Although if you click on the link thing then it'll tell you. Which you should do, to confirm your attendance...

                              • Wah. Wah, and Wah yet again...

                                It's 18+, really wanna go aswell, and I'm only a few months too young, cmon who wants to sneak me in.

                                • just

                                  punch yourself in the face a few times

                      • i have just

                        purchased my tic, sod £8 on the night, see you all there my lovelies

              • DJ Mental Matth

                Will be making an appearance downstairs!

                Expect more hooks than an army of one-armed pirates.

                First person to request the Smiths wins a special booby prize

              • I wanna come to this

                But I'm supposed to be DJing at the Spitz.

                    • There will be a split in floors then

                      by the looks of it - crazy London times. Of course I will play nothing but the Guillemots all night

                      • Yesh

                        I'll play it if you dance on the decks.

                        • Jeffrey from Applicants booked the Spitz for her birthday thing. Is it only open till 11? Ace.

                          Then i SHALL come to ball.
                          And bring a taxi full of drunken rock people.

                        • I'll play it

                          if you all strip naked and wiggle your arses in some kind of coordinated fashion
