DiS is Six: Gigs is here
DrownedinSound.com proudly presents our sixth birthday celebrations...
So, we're turning six this year; October to be precise. To celebrate, we're promoting, branding and putting our name to a number of events and shows. We'll cut straight to the chase - you should come to as many of these as you humanly can. They're going to be what the French would call 'really good, bruv'.

Four tet ?!
Nice one !
when
will the 'super special gusets' be revealed hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmn
three days
after the gig.
that's not actually true
I'm going to announce them onstage at the roundhouse halfway through Opeth's headline set
i've cleared it with the swedish folk
who is better
the 'awfully special guests' or the 'super special guests'?
they're probably not that special
hence the putting off announcing them. I remember last time there was a special super guest for something, it was like Warmsley or someone.
all that has been revealed so far
is that crablin says they're better than animal collective and that guntrip loves them, I need more clues
that's fine
don't come then.
I'm going to come
to the Emmy the Great show because she is ace.
sorry
no blacks.
Final fantasy
all the way.
I would say Seafood...
But Colin doesn't like them. Hmmm...
nottingham also
13th October- Junktion 7
The Telescopes

redcarsgofaster
Last Gang
Dirty Tux
Quartershade
based on having seen both recently
field music = not good
fields = good
i have no idea who did that song though.
a few months back
when it opened with new management
...
...
its not field music
they do 'if only the moon were up' though. i like that song.
I've just been told by someone
that 'the awfully special guests' playing with Dartz, BRS, etc are THE KAISER CHIEFS.
I hope so, because they are fucking awful.
hahaha
some classic rumours going around.
it would
explain the 'awful' special guests
Ch-boom
cha!
Awfully special guests= slayer
Raz "persuaded" Slayer to play the DiS birthday bash when he saw them at Reading. True story, I was there.
