Bloc Party: Put on Free Shows, Take Over Radio Station

Despite sending one of our best correspondents out on to the streets of America for a few weeks, weddings, time zones and massive distances have ruled Bawley out of a ticket to this Friday’s FREE Bloc Party gig at the New York Roseland Ballroom. Better located readers should go here for ticket details.

If - like us - you can’t make it to the show, you can still get your fill of Bloc Party love as the band take up a September long residency on UK digital radio station XFM.

From 9pm(BST) every Sunday night Matt and Kele will be in to chat about and spin some of their favourite tunes. The kind folk at XFM have posted the previous shows for your streaming pleasure.

Bloc Party are Kylie fans? Hmm not that surprised really.
