Friday 1st July Upstairs at the Garage Silver Rocket presents: Cove Querelle PLUS! Silver Rocket Club 5th Birthday Party 8pm-3am (This is also Querelle's album launch (on Sink And Stove) so expect a big party) Entry is FREE if you're on the Silver Rocket mailing list, £3 if you're not. To get in free just join up to the list here.
Saturday 16th July The Buffalo Bar Silver Rocket/Cut&Paste presents: Macrocosmica Fuck-Off Machete Hey Colossus PLUS! SR/Cut&Paste/Drowned in Sound DJs 8.30pm-2am £3 to mailing list members (see above), £5 otherwise
Saturday 30th July Rota @ Notting Hill Arts Club (afternoon show) Silver Rocket presents: Montana Pete Reigns October All Over The Notorious Hi-Fi Killers PLUS! Silver Rocket DJs FREE ENTRY! Doors open at 4pm and it goes on until 8.
EVEN MORE GOOD NEWS! DiS has FIVE copies of Silver Rocket's quite wonderful double-disc compilation album (review here) to give away to readers. WOW. And what's more, the lucky CD winners will also get GUESTLIST ACCESS to all of the above gigs. So, um, I guess you should probably enter this if you live in London (although you're welcome to enter just for the CD - it's worth it!).
HOW do you win? Easy: just email me (Mike DOT Diver AT Drownedinsound DOT com) with the answer to this question:
WHO PLAYED THE FIRST SILVER ROCKET NIGHT IN JULY 2000?
I'm looking for two bands here (the names of which might just be available on the Silver Rocket website... but I didn't tell you that).
