DiS Manchester is GO! 28/11/03: Le Neon + more
DiS Manchester is GO! 28/11/03: Le Neon + more
-Raz- by Raziq Rauf November 13th, 2003
Good evening, troopers & alcoholics. I am here to inform thee of a grand evening somewhere even more North London than Camden (yes, it does exist). A night of frolickery and debauchery, I am comfortably assured: Club Fandango has spread her unsightly paws to grimy ol' Manchester. Tied in to the bounteous Night & Day Café's 12th birthday celebration this splendid occasion will be...

What? CLUB FANDANGO in association with DROWNED IN SOUND.COM

When? FRIDAY 28th NOVEMBER

Who playing? LE NEON + PIONEERS + SILVA SURFA + FORMER MISS AMERICA

Where? NIGHT & DAY on Oldham St.

How much £4! or £3 with flyer from ClubFandango.co.uk

How long? 8pm until 2am

Most fun thing to do? Drink the picture. Get there early for the special stuff. Cos it'll all be gone by 9pm latest.

What's it all gonna sound like?

**LE NEON** Take the rowdy meeting of Stooges and of Joy Division, add to that a pinch of Sonic Youth, bring up to date the mixture with early Idlewild and a suspicion of Cooper Temple Clause and you obtain Le Neon. LeNeon.com

**PIONEERS** It’s indie, but maybe not as we know it. Pioneers mix the lush sophisto-pop of Talk Talk with the kind of singing you could only imagine coming from Puressence in their more quieter moments FatNortherner.com

**SILVA SURFA** Like some of Beck's early attempts to fuse country and hip hop,or Sparklehorse experimenting with Kevin Rowland singing. This has respect and arrogance but most of all it has that special something. SilvaSurfa.co.uk

**FORMER MISS AMERICA** Combines a homespun acoustic warmth with a playful use of arcane synthesises. Former Miss America prove to have an alarmingly immaculate beauty. Robot-Robot.co.uk

+ DJ Duncan

Next Club RaZdango on Friday January 23rd in collaboration with Captains of Industry featuring some outlandish Icelandic noise-monkeys, some outlandish Sheffieldic noise-monkeys and some other very, very special guests from London. SURPRISE! It will be.
