I see Booker T is playing Exil in Zurich tomorrow (21st July). Rather peeved to only spot this now, plus to have to miss it due to soccerball.

wish i could. you're very lucky to have the abart. when i lived in zurich, i only saw 3 concerts there (in 3 years) due to working so much and just being out of the loop. recently i went and looked at the history of who has been there since i left in 2001 and thought i was gonna be sick.

king's x at the abart was one of my favoritist shows ever.

Here's a few gigs that might be of interest in the "near" future:

Pendulum 30/09 Xtra CHF45

Goldfrapp 05/10 Xtra CHF60

The Coral 02/11 Abart CH37

Carl Barat (The Libertines, Dirty Pretty Things) 09/11 Mascotte CHF46

Caribou 09/11 Abart CHF37

Beach House 16/11 Kaufleuten CHF43

The Drums 19/11 Abart CHF43

Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan 26/11 Kaufleuten CHF48

Blood Red Shoes 29/11 Abart CHF35

Sorry for any repeats!

Pendulum, oh boy, might have to get in early on that one..

Kap Bambino at X-Tra in Zürich this Friday!

(not sure that's the best of venues though)

It's notable how many bands return to Zürich soon after playing here. Dan mentioned Blood Red Shoes above, Beach House too. Do they think it's cool here or is it the strong CHF?

Here's another returner . . . Au Revoir Simone at Abart on August 23rd, they were good at Stall 6 last September.

Other acts that may or not be returning:

Mystery Jets at Abart on 11th October
Yuck at Hafenkneipe on 3rd November
Plan B at Kaufleuten on 14th November
