Bringing All The Boys To The Yard

Come As Soon As You Hear have teamed up with the Forward/Slash boys for a night of mayhem at The Bernard Shaw, this Thursday the 21st as part of the Beatyard Weekender.

From 8 o' clock, we'll have a selection of New Volta Film Club shorts, curated by Bob Gallagher, as well as CASAYH's interactive performance, which features flower crafts, fortune-telling and Facebook photography.

DJs Frankie Grimes, James McLoughlin, Haido, Eimear Fitzmaurice and kDamo will be soundtracking the evening with all manner of blissed-out beats.

Hip-hopper Bob Glynn will be playing some tunes, the enigmatic Lobster Boy will be putting his claws to use by whipping up some visual delights and, to top it all off, we'll be marking International Day of the Nacho.

Bernard Shaw drinks promos? Check. Free admission? Czech. Go getcha some.

If you can't make it along to this, fret not. There's plenty more fun to be had over the weekend. A full listing of what's happening for The Beatyard Weekender can be seen here. I'm hoping to make it down to the all-new Toejam Mini Mall, a compact edition of their renowned Carboot Sale, to see if I can gleam some bargains.

Blaspheme As Soon As You Hear

Late notice, I realise, but if you've nothing better to be doing tonight, c'mon down to The Shaw for a bout of irreverance.

H, I, J...

The Come As Soon As You Hear juggernaut is gathering pace and we have a pretty diverse selection of events coming up in the next few weeks.

The first of these takes place this coming Thursday in The Bernard Shaw, Portobello, and is a celebration of The Letter K.

Among the krazyseksykool things we've got lined up are:

A performance by talk of the town Kid Karate

A DJ set by the inimitable kDamo.

Kolouring Kompetitions (with prizes)

Kola

Krispie Buns

And the best thing is that it won't cost you a bean. It's kompletely free.

I'd love to see you there. Possibly in a kimono.
