Does anyone know any bands that are playing London in September that are worth checking out? I haven't been able to come across any that have caught my eye.
I'm heading over probably Dec-Jan, so that will be awesome.
buddy, september seems like a bad time... i was there last year in sept and it was just after all the summer festivals had happened so most bands had just toured. But it's london, there's sure to be something worth seeing at some point.
I hope so Blake. I can't see too many other reasons being there.
September?
Go to Ireland instead...

my housemate has a few connections. what type of music?
2 piece drum machine/Bass/Synth/Nintendo DS/ 2 x Vox. Rythmic/stop start electro with 2 part harmonys, maybe a cross between Q and not U, The knife, Talking heads, Fagazi, Daft punk. here we are if you want a listen to some new demos
sounds interesting......

prob sounds better on paper but yeah any help would be awesome lmc

Anyone recommend a place to get a haircut in London?
no, but for those of a London persuasion, Bridezilla will be doing a free instore at Rough Trade East at 7pm on Tuesday 18th May
''Anyone recommend a place to get a haircut in London?''
Look in the back of the papers - there's usually ads for models for free or incredibly cheap fashion cuts. While I was over there I generally looked a zillion bucks (pounds) to boot (cos I certainly couldn't afford a salon cut and I only trusted my flatmate with scissors the first time.
Ended up just going to some place near liverpool st. Did a good job for 18 pounds.
I was contemplating trying out pimps and pinups but couldn't justify 34 quid on a hair chop.
team ham sand, I found some 15quid places in Soho. I guess it was Chinatown.
what do I HAVE to do if I'm leaving Wednesday (night)
Tate modern has some stuff on this weekend to celebrate its 10th birthday.
SGH said 1 day ago:

Pash a Scotsman (if you're a lady). Wear a kilt and pash someone (if you're a man) - there'll be no shortage of volunteers..
SGH- I would definately check out the tate modern, its all free (except the special exhibitions) housed in an awesome old power station.
This thread was closed due to rampant post-eating
It's heartbreaking to watch the only momentos of days long gone disappear forever with every subsequent post.
So please honour the dead brain cells and memories by ceasing and desisting and taking it all over to the new improved thread for a new Mono ummm, Mess + Noise - The London Calling - The Next Generation thread
Thank you and goodnight
