Plus Out Hud are playing a free show Saturday May 21st at The Marquee, Leicester Square from 7pm as part of that Budweiser thingy. There's a couple more interesting free nights they're doing as well as part of that Bud Rising thing plastered all over the place, though all the stuff you have to pay for looks godawful.

Our Disco got a mention on Radio One last night, not too sure if it'll affect turnout tonight, certainly did last time it happened. Doors around 11ish there anyway - if I can work out anyone's secret identity there I'll probably shout up...

There's the Sónar UK warm-up at Fabric this Thursday (ie TOMORROW) which looks awesome. I might have a spare +1 too.

Also, on June 1 from 7pm, Token Girl's Lovelife at 93 Feet East promises to be excellent. My amazingly talented and gorgeous friend Anna-Marie will be playing "grrrl guitar hip-pop electrofash". The last time she DJed was at a house party on Saturday, and she was SUPERB.

as for the next couple weekend, i dont actually know. my inner doctor is recommending rest, but, we'll see

Hey, I don't know what you're talking about. I ain't never even looked at another guy.

Alex, can I be your plus 1? If not, no matter, a cold is coming to finish me off soon.

Me, I'm liking the sound of that. What day is June 1? Will I be back from Liverpool?

Barima, yes you can be my +1. I will email or text tomorrow re: times and places to meet.

But I will try to be there. Even though I've got no money at all and should stay home, I need to dance it all out.

Kittin is the best human being ever, yes; I really enjoyed Jamie (he is v cute - I forgive one trick ponies if they look like him, though he should have sung more). I looked in on Virus Syndicate for a bit, I'd been really looking forward to them but a) there were only about ten people in Room 2 and the atmosphere was dead, b) aforementioned drama aargh. François K was amazing.

I think there's a 20:20 Vision night at The Key tomorrow as well, can't remember off the top of my head though.

DJ Hell is playing the next Issst at The Key as well, not too sure when it is other than next month yet though. I've not caught him DJing before, so I'm kind of interested I guess.

It was nice meeting you anyway Lauren, I'm sure I'll see you about in the future!

Alex, I stayed in the smae place we were at for half an hour, so there's no excuse, you schoolboy. I did find out that "Peaches" carries a fan and is gay, and wa spossibly one of the few people I wasn't wishing an acid bath on as the night carried on.

who is coming?

Depressing thread!

whats happening this weekend anyway? anything interesting? i dont think im working after all

I know nothing about Rex and am trying not to find out as I will not be able to go.

june 11th: get physical @ the end vs. border community/crosstown rebels warehouse party 'in east london.' hmmm.
