VIGSY’S CLUB TIP: MN2S at matter
Celebrating their 14th birthday no less, the Milk N 2 Sugars crew are going to party hard at Fabric’s natty big sister venue, matter, within that O2 thing. Room one, the massive three levelled main stage room with 1600 capacity and a sky bridge no less, will play host to special guest David Morales who will celebrate MN2S’s fourteen years with a massive five hour marathon set, with support from Todd Terry. Another of my faves, the much tipped here Joey Negro, aka Dave Lee, the Z Records head honcho, will also be there, as will Danny Krivit, Alix Alvarez, Danism and The Layabouts. Expect top drawer house all night long. No wonder the MN2S franchise has lasted the distance with nights as good as this…

Friday 24 Apr, matter, The O2 Arena, North Greenwich, 10pm-7am, £20 on door, NUS £12, £15 adv, info at www.matterlondon.com and www.mn2s.com, press info from Fabric.

CHRIS’ TALK TIP: ROB DA BANK’S FUTURE FESTIVALS TALK – PLUS SPECIAL 2FOR1 OFFER!
Oh, now this sounds good, and look, a special offer for all you CMU types. CMU favourite and Bestival chief Rob da Bank has got a new book coming out next week called ‘A-Z Of Festivals’ recalling his many travels around the world taking in music festivals large and small. This is relevant today because tonight he will take to the stage at the Ether Festival, currently taking place at the Southbank Centre, to talk about the book and then take part in a debate about how festivals can continue to innovate, and whether the digital revolution will ever erode the appeal of ‘being there’ at a live event? Broadcaster Miranda Sawyer will do the interview, while Basement Jaxx agent Peter Elliot, Creamfields chief James Barton and Virtual Festivals founder Steve Jenner will take part in the debate. Tickets are a tenner, but CMU Daily readers who call 0871 663 2500 and book in advance, and say the secret code phrase ‘future festivals’ as they order, can get two tickets for the price of one, so just a fiver each. Hurrah.

Friday 24 Apr, Southbank Centre Purcell Room, London, 8pm, £10, info at www.southbankcentre.co.uk (2for1 offer only on telephone bookings – 0871 663 2500)
