The first time we attended a Dollop night in London, good friends of ours The Invisible were playing, one of us ended up drinking the equivalent of the Thames in rum and I forgot how to get home. Probably one of the best night’s of our lives. So it gives us great pleasure to chat about their next big party to kick-start the summer down at Netil House next to London’s trendy triangular London Fields park.
Entertaining the masses will be Guardian love-child Rustie, Numbers new bad-man Koreless (who’s playing above), South London Ordance, Boiler Rooms Charles Drakeford and the pricelss Leisure DJ crew.
Get your tickets from Resident Advisor here and Alt. Tickets here.
