London - Concerts and things to do? (6-11 dec)
« on: November 25, 2005, 07:09:03 AM »
I'm gonna be in London for a while in December (6th-11th) so, to all UK people in here:

WHAT THE FUCK SHOULD I DO?

Any concerts worth going to? I know that Dubcnn shit with Bryan Abrams, dope, what else?

I'd love to go watch Chelsea - Liverpool, but I'm afraid it's gonna be HELLA EXPENSIVE, and I doubt there'll be any tickets left. Any other matches?

Stores with a nice hiphop catalog?

Anything else?

Thanks!

Yeah, everybody tells me everything is hella expensive!

Being from Spain, we don't get too many r&b/hip hop shows, so anything could be interesting. But I'm more into mid-ninetees westcoast rap, r&b, soul, funk...

Any clubs/places/anything you'd recommend me? Rhumba and Fabric... do they play urban music or it's more like disco and shit?

Thanks!

Just a quick question of my own..

I'm heading over to the UK next year and am interested in heading up to the Reading Festival, probably the Leeds one actually, but i was just wondering if anyone knows when the tickets go on sale? so i can keep an eye out for it. Cheers

jazz cafe

iraq would just get annexed by iran


That would be a great solution.  If Iran and the majority of Iraqi's are pleased with it, then why shouldn't they do it?

Yeah Leicester Square jumps..but if u dont like haouse / trance / techno you best to plan / find out venue nightly plans ie fri / sat night...
...jazz cafe is excellent..but as i said earlier not much going on in those dates there...
