Silver Rocket preview-a-thon: GREAT gigs, really

by Mike Diver [Edit this content] ▾ 14 comments 13:23 April 5th, 2006

We here at DiS have mad respect for Silver Rocket, the sole London club that consistently delivers the live goods. Sure, there are dozens of Londoners putting on clubs with live acts, but few maintain the sort of quality illustrated by these upcoming dates for your diary.

Most gigs are about a fiver in, but do look to the club's website for more information.

Upstairs At The Garage
Fuck Off Machete (or FO Machete as they're now boringly known)
October All Over
Silent Front
Meet Me In St Louis
Plus guest Vacuous Pop DJs

Friday April 21
The Buffalo Bar

Lower Forty-Eight
The Mockingbird Nightmare
Plus guest DrownedinSound DJs (um, me, then)

Free Diamonds

Friday May 19
The Buffalo Bar

DiScuss: Dunno 'bout you, but I am roughly A MILLION pissed off that I'm gonna miss Big Business and The Paper Chase for ATP... DAMN IT

I'm quite pissed off that I couldn't make it to both ATP's and that I don't live in London to go see all the bands I wanted to see anyway...

That's 'cos you loosers are at the second weekend whereas I'm at the first one so I get to see them.

Not that I have any idea what they're like.

Look, the JOEYFAT gig is the important one!
