(6/21), 808 State‘s Ex:El (6/24), Kate Nash‘s Made of Bricks (6/25), ABC‘s Beauty Stab (6/26), Maximo Park‘s A Certain Trigger (6/27), The Pogues‘ Red Roses for Me (6/27), The Waterboys‘ Fisherman’s Blues (6/28), David Bowie‘s Aladdin Sane (6/28) and Joy Division‘s Closer (7/18).
That’s in addition to previously announced listening parties for records by Cabaret Voltaire, Badly Drawn Boy, OMD, The Charlatans, Tears for Fears, and more. Check out the full schedule below and for more details (like the specific participants of each listening party) head to Tim’s website.
