Indie party in Zurich

Hiya.
A wee bit advertisement for myself ... hope that's fine ... I will be DJing at Big Ben on Saturday (27th January). It's going to be a mixture of Pub and Party with mainly british music (Maximo Park, The Fratellis, Babyshambles, Beatles, Kasabian, Jet, Stone Roses, Bloc Party ...). Maybe some of you fancy an eve like this ...

Polly

Ah! Hardbruecke BB, not Neiderdorf BB!

Will try to make it, but my Swiss-Indie crowd is somewhat smaller than my Sydney-Indie crowd. It may be tough to round up a gang.

Re: Indie party in Zurich

A fellow Manc eh... welcome to the forum. Am newly arrived in Zurich from Manchester myself!

And yes can someone please post details of the next Indie night as starting to miss the Indie scene.... In desp need to dance around madly to Stone Roses etc...

Also, not quite in line with the thread as such, but am tad annoyed that now have left UK James have reformed... would have loved to have seen them live (I only ever managed to see Tim Booth after he left James and went solo)

The next indie night in Zurich is on 23rd February (Friday) at Abart (www.abart.ch). It's called britpack (british music only).

Not sure about the next night at Big Ben but really enjoyed last time...
