Drunken nights, lagered fights - what's your favourite indie night?
disnews by DiS News April 22nd, 2005
Maybe it's because DiS still frequents said things, drinking cheap lager and waving their arms in the air to terrible songs, but that idea that BBC Radio 6 are attempting to find the best indie disco in the the world ever warms our hearts and chuckles our cockles.

Or possibly it's because we're banned from our favourite ones for falling over and breaking a man's leg whilst trying to do a one legged hop-spin-pirouette to 'Born To Be A Dancer' by the Kaiser Chiefs and now we need to find a new one...

Regardless, why not get on over to this linked bit on the BBC site and vote and share your memories. Or do the old 'I really can't remember - it was so long ago, but the mid nineties were a golden age and everyone dressed like Brett and Justin!' type thing...

Oh and you can probably win stuff as well... so that's always good.
