DiS is proud to announce another new night in our expanding co-promoted gig and club network, in Sunny Scotland!
We like music, you like music - that much is a true story. What isn't true however is the myth that all good gigs are in London. As if to rub salt into the eyes of Ken Livingstone and bring some delightful smiles to the folks North of the border, DiS is happy to tell you of our new night, givin' it like, well large in Edinburgh. Banter!
We gave our beautiful friends who run the ace I Fly Spitfires night a call and basically said, "Let's do lunch!" After lunch, we decided to team up.
Below is a list of the first three nights, all taking place at the Cabaret Voltaire, Blair St, Edinburgh. It costs a lovely £4 to get in and drinks are a hella-tasty £1.50 for Jack/Vodka & Mixer, or £2 for a can of Jamaica's finest, Red Stripe. Doors are at 8pm, bands finish at 11.30pm and the dancing continues until a liver-sucking 3am.
April 16th Stapleton Dartz! The Victorian English Gentlemen's Club V for Victory
May 14th Blood Red Shoes (pictured above) Dykeenies The Very Copy Haho
June 11th Super Special Guests! Fickle Public Distophia Hooker's Green No.1
Don't forget our ace new nights in Nottingham (click here for the latest gig details!) and Southampton, as well as our selection of regular events in London (like this!).
