Not going to Electric Picnic? Me neither! At least we get to sleep in a bed and wash in the morning, be happy with what you have! There’s plenty on around the city to keep you occupied and you won’t have to use any chemical toilets!
The Misanthrope at the New Theatre looks pretty tasty and there’s also The Matchmaker at the Civic Theatre. There’s also a full week of Tarantino films at the Sugar Club.
The music scene is a bit sleepy due to the Picnic, but there is Sam Beam & Jesca Hoop at the Olympia and also Finley Quaye at the Grand Social.
