Exclusive: Bloc Party to play Barfly gig
disnews by DiS News January 13th, 2005

Quite hot new band, Bloc Party, are to play a special date at London's Barfly venue in Camden on Wednesday 16th February.

The fearsome foursome are to return to the venue of the DiS 2003 Xmas party in which we came in our pants. This time it's under the XFM Xposure banner, to celebrate the lovely John Kennedy's 6th radio birthday.

Joining them on a bill selected by Kele and co. themselves will be London darlings Neil's Children and chat sensation of the year, Battle.

Tickets, which are a paltry £5, go on sale at 10.00am on Monday (17th Jan) through this here link:

 In other Battle related news, the quartet are to play a run of lead-up dates:

 January

24 London - Marquee (Paul Epworth Curates / Tsunami Relief Fund)

27 London - Buffalo Bar (Rock Feedback night) with Yeti (John Hassall ex-Libertines)

Full line up for DiS' Paul Epworth/Charity event will be announced tomorrow. But honestly, it's going to be phat grime.

Oh, and Bloc Party are also doing a signing tour in support of their debut single...

January

HMV Norwich (4.30pm )

February HMV Bristol (5.30pm - February 1)
HMV Brighton (5.30pm - 2) HMV Cambridge (5.30pm - 4)
