Club Fandango To Celebrate Ten Years Of Bbc6 Music
(informally, Like).
March 19th - 30th 2012
23rd March 2012
Hello people
... As you may or may not know BBC 6 Music is celebrating its tenth birthday, with the likes of Allo Darlin', Broken Records, Seasfire, Tom Williams and The Boat, Piney Gir, Binko Swink, Shrag, Evans The Death, Kate Jackson (The Long Blondes), Dingus Khan, The Rumour Said Fire, Torches, Driver Drive Faster, Inca Gold, Violas, Acres of Lions, Miniature Dinosaurs and The New Union.
No alarms and no surprises this time around - the station is very much safe from closure - but we thought it would be nice to acknowledge this momentous anniversary event by bringing together some of the acts and indeed actettes who've made their mark on the 6 Music psyche over the past decade in some sonic shape or form.
By some bionic coincidence March 2012 also sees Club Fandango celebrate eleven years of, well, fandangogogogogoing, so it's high time we invited back some of our nearest and dearest to partake in some birthday fun...
As is traditional with all BBC outside performances since the 'events' of yore the 6 Music involvement is wholeheartedly unofficial but it will be nice to revisit the days when the official Fandango / 6 Music nights stalked The Water Rats and The Borderline like a great big huge gigging colossus.
