Des Was a Bowie Fan returns to London Town on Friday August 2nd. Indiepop, new wave, post-punk, 60s Pop and Northern Soul dancing all night long upstairs at the Walthamstow Trades Hall. The Shangri-Las to The Smiths, Brigitte Bardot to Belle and Sebastian, Roy Orbison to The Raincoats, Dusty Springfield to Depeche Mode, Jimmy Ruffin to David Bowie, Al Wilson to Aztec Camera, with a sweet underlay of 1950s and '60s heartbreak. 8pm till 1am. The upstairs is a cracking and cosy little room for a clubnight, with seating all around in the fashion of the social clubs. But please be aware that it is limited to 60 capacity. We'd recommend grabbing tickets early if you can. www.deswasabowiefan.com "The jangle of the beat meets the Friday night soul of a valleys social club hall" - Oyster Boy Expect to hear: Dexys Midnight Runners Pulp Prince Belle and Sebastian Billy Fury Brigitte Bardot The Beatles Candi Staton Dusty Springfield Depeche Mode Blondie Billy Idol The Smiths Serge Gainsbourg Suede The Ramones The Ronettes Jackie Wilson Joy Division B52s The Shangri-Las Shop Assistants Jimmy Ruffin David Bowie Talking Heads T-Rex Jonathan Richman The Rolling Stones The Jesus and Mary Chain The Four Tops The Supremes Echo and the Bunnymen The Cure Carter USM The Fall Roxy Music Ladytron Fire Engines The Buzzcocks Bronski Beat Elvis Costello Elvis Presley New Order The Pixies Johnny Cash Roy Orbison Del Shannon Veronica Falls Martha Reeves and the Vandellas The Magnetic Fields The Jam The Just Joans The Beach Boys Pet Shop Boys The Field Mice Camera Obscura Television Personalities Tullycraft Felt France Gall Broder Daniel Belinda Carlisle The Go Gos Orange Juice The Indelicates Mary Wells Kim Weston The Wolfhounds Sonic Youth Slowdive Flowers Frank Wilson Ash The Undertones Ritchie Valens Vic Godard & the Subway Sect The Velvelettes The Velvet Underground and more
