DiS does gigs: Cadence Weapon tonight, full update here...
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver February 20th, 2008

Live, tonight: London, gather for Cadence Weapon, as the Canadian emcee showcases cuts from his 9/10-rated second album Afterparty Babies (review) at a special, and super-intimate, DiS-sponsored show. Holler? Right back at’cha – come down and shake some.

The show at Bardens Boudoir sees the Polaris Prize-nominated (for his Breaking Kayfabe debut – 9/10 review here) rapper supported by both London party-core trio Cutting Pink With Knives and Canadian DFA1979-recalling duo The Carps; doors are at 8pm, and tickets will cost you a mere £8 upon entry (£6 before 9pm). More details and advance tickets: HERE.

DiS DJs will be spinning those between-bands tunes, providing our CDR of Dream Warriors and PM Dawn actually works this time. If not: you get Fugazi. All night.
