DiS in digest: our pick of the week's news
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver February 2nd, 2007

We remembered! Amazing. And we've not even been drinking. Yet.

Here, in neat summary form, are our picks of the week's music news. Was Mika mentioned in the last five days at all? Probably, albeit not here. He's got an album out on Monday, y'know. Head to head with Bloc Party, it is. If Mika trumps Kele and co, well... we'll scratch our scalps right off.

Have a nice weekend. Southampton are playing Derby. That should be fun. Or tragic.
