Like music? Like gigs? Like free things? You're in luck. DiS is teaming up with the guys at Vice (link me!) for a rather splendid bash at the Old Blue Last this Thursday.

Flyer me!

Yes, your eyes tell the truth: HEALTH (//DISCO reviewed here) and Comanechi, plus DJ action from DiS among others, from 8pm on June 12, for free. Best queue early, eh?

UPDATE: added to the bill are the most-awesome, um, Awesome Color, whose new LP Electric Aborigines is most probably out now via Ecstatic Peace. If not, it nearly is. Yes. Find them on MySpace.

Times, et cetera:

8-9 DiS DJ
9-9:30 Comanechi
9:30-10 King BB DJ
10-10:30 Awesome Color
10:30-11 Fierce Brosnan DJ
11-11:45 HEALTH
11:45-12:30 Fierce Brosnan DJ

Will the RT instire not be earlier than this?

Then you can do BOTH.

AMAZING SCENES.

Quite possibly

They're usually about 7.30 or something, so it's certainly plausible. And the Old Blue Last is only down the road too, so this could work out sweeeeet

Although, there's a good chance I might be going home with Kate Moss that night though, so I can't promise anything
