A quick reminder to write your song requests on the event wall for this Friday (http://xr.com/b0k). What would you like to hear? Our guest DJs Big Pink Cake will be on about 10ish. I’ve been in Edinburgh for the past week so you can expect a wee bit more Scottish indie pop than usual! A few people asked about drinks last time – if you prefer draught beer, rather than bottle, you can buy it downstairs and bring it up to the Joan Collins Lounge. It’s cheaper that way. If you’re coming from Popfest we’re just one stop southbound on the tube at King’s Cross or you can catch the number 30 bus. Admission is free all night and there will be mixtapes for those who get there early! |
