The Playlist for the big Barnet Eye 8th Birthday Party on Friday Night 8pm at The Chandos Arms!

The False Dots will be performing

This week, this blog is preoccupied with the preparations for our 8th Birthday Party on Friday evening at The Chandos Arms. I have spent the evening working on the playlist for the music when the bands aren't playing. I take these matters seriously. It has been a most enjoyable evening. I don't want to spoil the surprise, but the list includes :-

The Clash, Slade, The Dickies, David Bowie, T Rex, Dennis Brown, Eek A Mouse, Blondie, The Damned, Mud, Yellowman, Jimmy Cliff, The Four Tops, Diana Ross, The Selecter, The Specials, Dawn Penn, The Monkees, Carmel, Blur, Black Grape, Otis Redding, Marvin GAye, Wire, The Fall, Magazine, Siouxsie and The Banshees, Happy Mondays, Big Audio Dynamite, The Steve Miller Band, The Kinks, Misty in Roots, James Brown, Sister Sledge, Patti Smith, Prince Buster, The Pogues, Sade, The Ramones and Wire, just to name a few.

I can thoroughly recommend an evening building a playlist as a great way to relax and chill! I hope that if you make it, you enjoy the music just as much as I have.

There will also be live music and a slice of cake! Please come down. It's all free, but a donation to the Colindale Foodbank, in the form of some non perishable food would be a lovely gesture.

We will publish the playlist after the gig, so you can check it out in full. G
