DiS Scotland: Kick off 2007 with I Fly Spitfires
North of the border? Get your gig on as soon as possible!
Getting back into the swing of things in 2007 is already proving difficult for some. Me? Well, I've spent the last 12 hours being ill and generally feeling sorry for myself. Not to worry though, as great gigs are around the corner!
The endlessly sexy folks at I Fly Spitfires have put together three bills to start 2007 in the kind of style you'd expect them to. A good style.
All these are at Edinburgh's Cabaret Voltaire venue, which is a pretty sweet band hole, if you ask me. Without further ado...
Thursday 4th January
The Low Miffs + Futuristic Retro Champions
Having just released their debut single on one of our favourite indies (White Heat), The Low Miffs play I Fly Spitfires/DiS in their motherland. They won fans on their trip to London for our DiScover club, so you'd be silly to miss them on home turf.
6th February - Blood Red Shoes
28th February - Foals
Two of our toppest tips for 2007 and previous stars of our London gig circuit, both Foals and Blood Red Shoes are hot on the lips of those in the know and are working their way into the hearts of those that don't.
DiScuss: See you there? Oh GO ON, you know you want it.

I may actually have acquired a flat in Edinburgh at that point so crashing somewhere won't be as much of a problem as I had anticipated. ROCK!

if you dont have a flat sorted, there's a spare couch at mine.
It will be ACE.
Cheers, man - appreciate the offer.
