This Sunday sees The Chemical Brothers take over Trafalgar Square for an evening of free music for the capital. Joined by Calvin Harris, the evening looks set to recreate the massive party Scissor Sisters had in the square last summer for the (Red) campaign. The Chems will have a one-off lights-sounds-images show from United Visual Artists and Flat Nose George, which will make the evening all the more special. So, we hear you cry, where......

Buttoned Down Disco is fast becoming a London phenomenon. It's practially free if you sign up for the secret venue invite. More importantly, for a club night in London it's always really friendly. You could walk up to anyone and start talking to them if you felt like it. These are things we really don't see enough of on a typical London night out. But then, Buttoned Down Disco was never meant to be......

If you don't want to see Nikki get evicted tonight and you're planning on a bit of dancing and drinking then these are this week's suggestions. Friday: Club Popjustice: Our favourite pop website, Popjustice, has been taking over the wheel's of steel at Wardour Street's Trash Palace for the last few months, and after checking it out a few week's ago we think we can thorougly recommend it. If you just want a fun......

For once we're giving you more than five hours notice on clubbing tips for this weekend, mainly because we've been planning this particular Friday night for weeks and weeks. We've always been a fan of industrial-styled superclub Fabric and their ecletic line-ups, spending many a night down in the former meat-cellar dancing to the likes of Jacques Le Cont (before the Madonna years) and discovering cool new bands like Clor (*sob*) before they hit......

You, our faithful Londonist readers, did so well with the previous installments of this little game, in which we have asked you to identify the London location of videos featuring Kylie, Coldplay, and the Chemical Brothers, that we thought we'd give you a bit more of a challenge. (As always, post answers or other reactions in the comments.) Madonna, Madonna, Madonna! We don't even need to make a joke. You can come up with your......

As pop pundits continue to get things wrong by consistently voting OK Computer, Pet Sounds or Something by the Beatles as the best album of all time we all know that Jeff Wayne's epic musical War Of The World's is in fact the greatest thing ever laid down on vinyl. Or even cd, but the booklet with the black plastic version rocked big time. So how excited were we to hear that he's taking......

Last week we showed you very good reason not to visit Harrods, so this week we thought we'd better even things up by giving you a decent reason to visit the store. Over the next two weeks Harrods is going to be showcasing "the best Britain has to offer" with it's Best of Brit-ish event, which includes students from the Royal College of Music performing on Kemble pianos, an 'extreme tea drinking' competition, tastings......

Every now and again a music video is released which features too many abstract shots of London's streets for us to ignore. It happened with the Chemical Brothers and Kylie, and now it's Coldplay's turn. Their video for the new single Fix You isn't exactly groundbreaking (close up shots of Chris Martin looking pained in an equally miserable environment), but if you ignore the posturing then it is fun to play 'Spot the Location'. Is......

If there's one thing we recommend you do today - over getting up, going to work, having a beer later, reading Londonist from cover to cover - it's that you buy Dandy Warhols tickets for their Hammmersmith Palais show on October 26, and not just because their site (see previous link) is in 3D. Of course our herb loving Bohemian-like-us friends may not be your cup of tea. But then again James Blunt may......

Last time we did this it was with the new Kylie video and we had quite a response. This time, it's the Chemical Brothers who have decided to shoot their video for the new single in the capital. Some of the locations are relatively easy to place. For example, this shot looking up Tottenham Court Road from outside Goodge Street station: And Londonist had no problem naming the location of this chase scene as the......
