Hate when you can't afford a gig or miss out on tickets? Never fear, because the new-ish concept of DJ set after parties are here to dry your tears. Beirut are playing at The Hi-Fi this Thursday, but tickets aren't dirt cheap, so if you're a little (or a lot) broke after the Christmas/New Year period, you'll be trying to save costs wherever you can. And why not save your cash by going to the official Beirut DJ set and after party at Oh Hello!?
If you're already one of the lucky peeps who's seeing the American natives – who are in town hot off the heels of their Falls/Southbound slot – you can get half price entry if you show your Hi-Fi stamp at the door. How's that for 2-for-1?
Joining in on the after party fun are locals Blonde on Blonde who tag themselves as sounding like The Kills slash The Dandy Warhols, which obviously needs to be seen to be understood completely. Topping off the night are the sensational, as always, Cobra Kai DJs that will be mixing up the best indie/party/hip hop favourites. It sounds like less of an after party and more of an actual party all on its own!
