Eat Your Own Ears: First DiS 6th Birthday gigs announced
crablin by Colin Roberts August 16th, 2006

Drowned in Sound has teamed up with Eat Your Own Ears for an October full of DELIGHT

This October sees Drowned in Sound turn the majestic age of six. Yes, six years of mind-bendingly enjoyable music journalism and sexual innuendo.

To celebrate we're getting involved with tours, gigs and events around the country and those below represent the first of our (seemingly endless) announcements. These shows are all in London, but there will be others outside of London (and even outside the UK!), so keep your face peeled.

These shows are promoted and put together by our ace friends at Eat Your Own Ears and we're helping out at each of them, such is our love of the bands and acts involved. EYOE's Tom Baker had these kind words to say of Drowned in Sound:

"Drowned in Sound is a great forum for new and exciting music and they're always on it with the next new band - be it folk, rock or indie... I wish them a really great sixth anniversary and another six years of promoting forward-thinking, good music."

Eat these details, buy tickets and come celebrate!
