Hello Sinister! Oh, I never write, I never phone, treat this place like a hotel, only show up when I need me laundry doing, and only then because a twee Bob Hoskins materialised from thin air to say "It's good to Sinister". Talking of which, went to see Mum last night. They were wonderful. There was a bit when they all had tiny handbells and rang them off in a peal of noises while they were playing their other instruments. It was like electronic coming to life! Magnificent. The venue was great too - the Old Vic. Makes you wonder if Kevin Spacey was there, prior to taking his pooch out for another early hours stroll. A twee Bob Hoskins? What a thought. So, yes, inevitably, I just wanted to mention that the next HDIF is this Friday April 30th at the Canterbury Arms in Brixton. Our guest DJ is Amelia Fletcher and she's promised an all girl set. Full details below. Please please please come and support us in our new venue. The two nights we did last year at the Canterbury were fantastic. If you know anyone who lives south of the river and might like HDIF as a night out, please forward this email to them. Thank you!
