War Child, the charity who actively highlight the plight of children in war-affected areas of the world, have announced a London late night show.

:(

ive seen several of these bands live. Theyre terrible. At least if you go youll give money to war child.

LOTP + Metronomy live...

Are certainly not terrible. Opposite infact. I've always fancied seeing These New Puritans as well... £12 looks a bargain.

What !

I have seen a lot of these bands and they are all amazing live ! I agree I think this looks like great value - I will be there x

I found metronomy

were dire crappiness. And Lotp. Sorry.

Basically ive spent afternoons with my brother and nothing but a casio keyboard and a recorder and produced similar stuff. Live the only thing going was the crowd response. They just stood there while everyone went crazy for no good reason whatsoever. I left midway inot the third track they played.
