London Live: 27 April – 3 May
Gig Of The Week – Sonic Youth @ Scala
I’d have given anything to get a ticket to this gig. Anything. The bastards at See Tickets put them on sale early – meaning that when we went to check at 9:50 (tickets due onsale 10am) they were already sold out. I wasn’t happy. Anyway, for those luck enough to be at this ’secret’ show I reckon it promises to be one of the events of the year. I mean how often do you get to see behemoths of music such as Sonic Youth play cupboards like the Scala? Once in a lifetime… If any of you are heading to this, I’d love to hear how it was – let me know via a comment!
Elsewhere this week I’d recommend heading to Matter on Saturday to catch Miss Kittin & The Hacker. Last time I saw the Kittin was on a beach at Benicassim and it was pretty damn good. Also, Doves play a couple of big ‘uns at Brixton Academy the Juan Maclean follow their Ether festival performance with a slot at Madame JoJo’s and somewhat bewilderingly Friendly Fires play the cavernous Forum.
