DiS invites you down the pub!
As part of the re-awakening of the really very nice indeed Holloway Road chat house NAMBUCCA, DiS has agreed to loosely curate a night there on the odd Wednesday every month. Our first one this Wednesday, September 22nd, will see pre-release record playbacks from the likes of Le Tigre, Interpol (as if you all haven't downloaded it, you SCAMPS) and maybe even REM if they let us wangle it (love you, Warner Bros. press dept.). On top of that there will be some HOT visuals in the form of whatever crosses our minds (possibly something to do with John Cusack and a cow), and visuals and sounds combined to create a viewing of that there new Yeah Yeah Yeahs film.
Then, when we're bored of blowing your AV pants off, we'll have a hot new band on called Lux Luther, who contain former members of Ben & Jason (the Ben half). And Meanwhile Back In Communist Russia. Although we swear it's got nothing to do with post-folk or the New Ethereal Acoustic Movement. It should be really good. AND IT'S ALL FREE, WE TELLS YA!
To persuade you further, gaps in-between will be filled with DJs playing tunes so good that you will be inclined to nod your head at least, and we will be hammering the pints of Carling Extra Cold for £1.50. Which is good.
Things kick off around 6.30pm with new record playing, and the band will be on at 10pm-ish. Everything else comes inbetween.
Nabucca lives at 596 Holloway Road - Archway end of the end - and is big and wooden and spacious with lots of tables and boardgames. To see what else they're up to on a nightly basis check out this site here
The launch party is tonight as well, so we recommend you check that out as well. Banzai!

Re: DiS invites you down the pub!
Um, do you know what a stinkhole it is?
Apart from Mr Bagel, obviously.
Re: DiS invites you down the pub!
tis all free.
I have capital lettered the article to highlight this frugal fact.

Re: DiS invites you down the pub!
Besides, if I wanted to live somewhere nice, why oh why would I live in London? ;-)
As a final point, that Mr Bagel is WRONG. The one in Wood Green is 24hrs. The one in Archway is not. WRONG I SAY, WRONG.
Re: DiS invites you down the pub!
Crouch End is nice, though, and in London. It is one of the few arts of town that are, mind (Highgate is nice too, but only up near the woods). Plus we've got the best pubs in Crouch End, and a record shop that sold me Dead Meadow's last record for £2!
Re: DiS invites you down the pub!
Crouch End is nice, actually, but I'm entirely on the mercy of public transport and the lack of a tube station nearby puts me off the area..
Re: DiS invites you down the pub!
Last time I went to that cinema (Holly Wood Green... see what they did there!?) the staff taking my money were talking about some stabbing that had happened there that day; the last time I went to the other one I emerged to find the pub on the corner opposite the tube being raided. Go to the Odeon in Muswell Hill, that's much nicer.
God bless Wood Green... to think I pay my council tax to keep its streets clean. Maybe one day it'll just fall into the ground...

Re: DiS invites you down the pub!
Nearly did, recently, what with all the burst watermains ;-)
Methinks after I move I'll just use the Odeon on Holloway Road, anyway...
Re: DiS invites you down the pub!
When they open the bar, anyway.
Cheapo Tuesday tonight... maybe I'll go.
