Dinosaurs Are Still Alive! DJ line-up info! (and some sad news)

DINOSAURS ARE STILL ALIVE




There's this little scene in Stockholm with youngsters making noise of the more unfashionable kind, and Dinosaurs Are Still Alive are certainly at the centre of all this. With songs that all sound like immidiate hit lo-fi punk pop tunes at first listen, Adam Forsberg and his mates have already gained quite a bit of attention thanks to these tunes. They've opened for the Sic Alps at Debaser in Stockholm, and have also been brought to Gothenburg for a gig, and had the song "Growing up going down" featured in BBC 6's Tom Robinson Introducing. I almost wish I hadn't heard Dinosaurs Are Still Alive yet, because if you haven't, you're in for an amazing treat.




About the DJ line-up then!

* Thursday: Karin from Cosy Recordings and Johan from SKWBN will start off the night, for those of you who'd like to sit outdoors for a bit before Colin Clary takes the stage at Landet. They'll play some seven inches together between 6 and 8. And indoors, when it's opened there, Åsa who helped setting up gigs when Cosy Den was based in Gothenburg will play her fave tunes.

* Friday: Padde from the amazing Gothenburg indie night Snap-tight! will do some dj-ing between and after the bands at Gula Villan.

* Saturday: Burnsy & Vincent Tigreat from Dirtyclubber in Paris, France will put icing on the cake, playing a neat selection of what Parisians can usually hear at indie nights there, from what probably are France's finest pop DJs.

* Sunday: I'll get back to you about this.

And the sad news? Well, I suppose I shouldn't complain all that much - last year, no-one at all cancelled. But I got an e-mail from the Sock Puppets yesterday saying they can sadly not come because of stupid bosses at work. We hope to bring them over in the future.

Kindergarten Kisses! (+ Mole Says Hi moved to Saturday)

KINDERGARTEN KISSES



Kindergarten Kisses is Albin Zaar, from the deep woods in the South of Sweden, but now living in the country's midst. Albin is also one of the foundation pillars behind legendary and quite brilliant lo-fi collective Models Inc., who have been around for around a decade now. Kindergarten Kisses is also a lovely live act where the audience is taken aboard on trips in forms of short stories of life and death. As he remarks on the myspage: "most of the noises were made by me in one shape or another, only a few by actual ghosts". The proportions of that during this gig? We'll see.

(Oh, and that ticket info post below is now updated a little, at the bottom.)

***

Mole Says Hi have been moved to Saturday. If this somehow makes you want to change your pre-booking, that's all cool, just get in touch! Speaking of tickets: 22 left for Friday and 11 left for Saturday.

Update 26th of July:

I've decided to lower the ticket prices for Cosy Den 2010. This is because of a slightly better economic situation for me personally right now - I can therefor have a smaller margin in the budget.
Admission for Thursday is now 60 SEK instead of 80 SEK, and on Friday the tickets cost 80 instead of 100.
If you haven't booked tickets for Friday and Saturday yet, it's time to do so - there are just 28 tickets left for Friday and 19 left for Saturday.
Please send an e-mail to thirdfloorfireescapeview (at) gmail.com along with your name and which day/s you'd like to come, and that's it!
