LEGENDARY TOO DRUNK AND CHUMS’ AFTERNOON OUT… yes, it is , Too Drunk, indie punx with a thirst are sensibly going on first so they can get pished and enjoy the other bands. Cos they are ace.
Take Pram Invasion, who have made a rather brilliant bitter sweet indie pop album redolent of XTC or Squeeze (find it on Bandcamp or similar. But do find it. It comes heavily recommended) - anyway you get them and then you get The Voodoo Rays, headliners at about 4pm - cos don’t forget this is a matinee gig.
They are searing pop psychedelicists who straddle their time betwixt Brighton and The Smoke for maximum influence of marine cadences and urban swagger. Probably.
Three ace bands in the afternoon and CHEAP in advance! Come on down.
The Dublin Castle is a legendary pub and music venue located 2 minutes away from Camden Town tube station. It has been run by the same family for over 28 years and features 4 live bands every night as well as a great selection of beers, ciders and wines.
There are DJs after the bands on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays and a fabulous jukebox in the front bar if you’re after a more relaxed atmosphere.
But what is it that makes the Dublin Castle the long-standing centre of the indie rock universe? Is it because it’s Madness’ birthplace? Because its stage has been graced by everyone from Blur, through Coldplay, Supergrass, The Killers, The Arctic Monkeys, Billy Bragg, etc? Is it because it was no surprise to see Amy Winehouse behind the bar serving costumers? Or Suggs? (who, mind you, tended to ignore costumers and serve himself) Or is it because far from being just another Camden venue it has established itself as an indie rock institution? The answer is that it’s not only because of its musical heritage that people come to the Dublin Castle, it’s because whilst you enjoy a pint, play some tunes on the jukebox, check out the live bands, get your dancing shoes on for our DJs, chat to our friendly staff or even stage-invade a little, you’re inadvertently being part of this movement the Dublin Castle leads, this cultural legacy. Expect no castle battlements. Just pure rock and roll royalty.
