Club NME at Koko
Friday, April 29

Club NME at Koko, Camden, London, 29th April. With Babyshambles Out Hud.


AKIRA'S VERDICT : Vague WAR! Brilliant Vague WAR! Had another one of those Big Love/Big Hate divides, with a whole lot of people going apeshit joyfully, and awhole lot of people going apeshit angrily. I like gigs of that nature.

BEST SONG : Oh! (What A Glorious Thing)

MISSILES: Loads!

Neighbourhood
Thursday, April 28

Neighbourhood, London. Eddy Temple-Morris' Remix night. With Ladytron.


AKIRA'S VERDICT : You know you're guatanteed a good crowd at an ETM show, and even the five hour non-soundcheck and ensuing sound weirdness couldn't dampen this shit. It was ACE, and OddKidd came on and did BOOM with us, what more could you want?

BEST SONG : Can't remember

MISSILES: Nil

Saturday Spitroast
Saturday, April 23

Saturday Spitroast downstairs at Tribeca Grand Hotel, 2 Avenue Of The Americas. Free entry, free booze, Spiky Phill and David Lyndwal Deejaying, SAY WORD TWICE!


AKIRA'S VERDICT : The most fun I have had in a long time. I played all my favourite records, rapped a bit, mashed up my elbow, made new friends, got drunk. Amazing all round.

BEST SONG : Cut You In The Face

MISSILES: Nil
