RoTa (4th April) w/ Tim Ten Yen + Internet Forever + Pope Joan
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
We're back for another of our super fun afternoon shows! This time, we're super excited to bring you...
TIM TEN YEN is the snappiest dressed man in London. Probably. What is certain is that "Everything Beautiful Reminds Me of You", released via Pointy Records, was the snappiest sun-drenched pop record made last year by a snappily-dressed man from London. SNAPPY. His live shows come assisted by The Sinister Cat, and if that doesn't pique your interest by itself, well...

INTERNET FOREVER bill themselves on their myspace as "the dangerous sounds of twee". We think they're like a Times New Viking-savvy take on what Beat Happening were so special for - a band that places youthful exuberance and a desire for maximum fun moments uber alles. We're SOLD.

POPE JOAN are a four-piece avant pop band from Brighton. Trading in angularrrrr guitar lines and 8-bit synth fury equally, debut mini-album Hot Water, Lines and Rickety Machines was last year via the fine people at OIB Records (also responsible for Lonely Ghosts, who some of you may remember from our Christmas party) and garnered a lot of lovely words from the underground press.

As usual, this goes down from 4pm to 8pm, we'll be playing SUPER SWEET TUNES between the bands, and it's TOTALLY FREE. Tell your friends!

Afterwards, a few of us (me and Ibzo and some others, I think) are going to a Uyghur restaurant to sample some culinary delights. Anyone who wants to come too should head over to this thread: http://drownedinsound.com/community/boards/social/4167364
